Beyoncé and Jay Z buy world’s most expensive car

Beyoncé and Jay Z may have just added the most expensive car in the world to their already luxurious fleet.

This week, Rolls-Royce unveiled its $28 million Boat Tail convertible for a client who clearly enjoys the finer things in life, such as a rear deck that contains a picnic set and a double refrigerator to keep vintage champagne chilled. Rumour has it, the Carters were behind the creation of the car.

“It’s thought this fantastic car has been commissioned by Beyoncé and Jay-Z with all its detailing matching their favourite things,” an industry source told the UK’s Telegraph.

Built for the Mediterranean backroads of the French Riviera, where Beyoncé, 39, and Jay-Z, 51, have frequented; the owners of this British luxury vehicle will be able to sip bubbly during outdoor picnics. The “double refrigerator houses the clients’ favourite vintages of Armand de Brignac,” which “rapidly cools to precisely six degrees.”

It’s worth noting that the rapper sold a 50 percent stake in Armand de Brignac to Moët Hennessy in February.

Boasting a blue exterior, the luxury ride also features two-sided timepieces; one each for a man and a woman, from Bovet 1822 that they can wear or use as car clocks. In addition to this four-seater, 19-foot Boat Tail, only two other coachbuilt vehicles will be made.

While the car has a big price tag, Beyoncé and Jay-Z can surely afford it. They have reported net worths of $500 million and $1.4 billion, respectively, according to Celebrity Net Worth and Forbes.

Torsten Müller-Ötvös, the CEO of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, has called the Boat Tail the company’s “most ambitious project yet.”
