ASAP Rocky is a car guy, among other things, and he owns a collection of valuable and interesting vehicles.
He clearly knows what he likes, and knows what he wants.
And his one-off, fully custom Mercedes-Benz 190E proves it.
Every element of the car shows incredible attention to detail, including the number plate.

ASAP Rocky, or ‘A$AP’ which is technically the correct way to stylize his name, clearly has a knack for fashion and style.
He even designed a clothing line.
ASAP Rocky opted for an amazing classic for his one-off
The Mercedes-Benz 190E (not to be confused with the much rarer 190 SL) is an iconic and it is one of the few legendary classics that’s also vaguely attainable.
It’s not cheap, but examples in good condition are relatively affordable.
And because it is so popular and common, you could also get away with getting one in less than ideal condition and get it fixed without breaking the bank.
Everything custom
The car was designed by ASAP Rocky’s creative agency, AWGE, in partnership with EA’s Need for Speed team and every single thing on it is custom made for ASAP.
The car is painted black on one side, and white on the other side.
There are gold accents throughout, including the grille and all Mercedes emblems and logos, as well as the front diffuser.
The rally-style reer wheels are painted white, while the front ones feature Maybach-style dish rims.
Even the license plate is customized.
It’s a New York license plate, and it reads ‘A$-AP’.
ASAP probably isn’t using the car but, in theory, he could, as the car is theoretically road legal.
