Tiger Woods transcended the game, and his lifestyle was in the limelight. His car collection has drawn immense attention over the years.
Woods' garage has a grandeur of its own. His most prized car is worth $1.15 million alone; some are picks of comfort, and the rest have their own edge.
Woods' collection spans two decades, reflecting his evolution from young champion to elder statesman of golf.
In 2024, Brandon Rix of HotCars released the list of some of the most expensive cars that Woods has acquired over the years. His latest purchases aren't on the list, but still it's a stacked car collection.

8. 2008 Buick Enclave CXL
Woods has certainly gone with comfort and affordability with this pick. Having an original MSRP of $37,455, the SUV comes across as a sports utility vehicle with 275 horsepower and 251 lb-ft of torque. An impressive 0-60 time of 8.2 seconds also makes it a convenient buy.
7. 2021 Hyundai Genesis GV80
The 2021 Hyundai Genesis GV80 was the car that saved Woods’ life in 2021. The golfer got involved in a car accident earlier that year, and the car’s safety measures protected him quite well.
With an average resale value of $39,164, the luxury SUV comes with a lavish interior. With 375 hp and 391 lb-ft of torque, it delivers both power and refinement.
6. 2004 Buick Velite Concept
The 2004 Buick Velite is one of the cars gifted to Woods by his nine-year-long partner, Buick. The magnificent four-seater convertible never reached the streets, as it never went into full production. Woods is one of the very few people on the planet to have the car in their garage.
400 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque give it a market value of $39,500. The car was predicted to be a huge hit if it ever entered the market.
5. 2015 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG
Top Speed reviews labelled the Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG as an all-round buy, offering both comfort and grandeur. The 2015 model was listed at $233,525 at the time of its initial release.
In 2024, it had a marketplace average of $44,015. Its Biturbo (6.0-Liter) V12, staggering 621 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque, makes it a special one. No wonder Woods got his hands on it.
4. 2009 Cadillac Escalade
Durable, versatile, and elegant. That’s what the 2009 Cadillac Escalade stands for, and that’s exactly why Woods went for it. The Escalade's commanding presence matched Woods' stature in golf.
The grand SUV cost $62,205 at the time of its initial release. 403 horsepower and 417 lb-ft of torque make the model a real bargain.
In 2009, Woods had gone straight into a neighbor's tree outside his Florida home while driving this car.
3. 2009 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren
Now we move to the part of Woods’ garage that is filled with extravagance. The first car we come across is the 2009 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. With a maximum speed of 208 mph, the supercar was a blessing to the eye.
The German and British automotive giants collaborated to bring together this absolute dynamic supercar that had an original MSRP of $495,000. Only 2,100 were ever produced from 2003 until 2010, and it's clear that Woods had to pay a handsome sum of money for the car.
2. 2011 Lamborghini Murcielago LP640
Lamborghini’s trademark V12 engine finds its place in Woods’ garage through the 2011 Murcielago LP640.
Originally released at an MSRP of $369,400, the supercar produces 631 hp and, in 2024, was going for $336,000, according to Hagerty.
1. 2003 Porsche Carrera GT
The 2003 Porsche Carrera GT is undoubtedly the best car in Tiger Woods’ collection. Originally, it had an MSRP of $440,000. However, it has iconic features: 603 horsepower, 435 lb-ft of torque, and a maximum speed of 205 mph, which gave it a whopping value of $1.15 million.
Interestingly, according to Wright Thompson, a senior writer for ESPN, Woods took the car back to the dealership after he failed to control it at the beginning and drove it into the grass near his house.
