Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker isn’t a fan of Ferraris or Lamborghinis, but he’s still a mad petrolhead.
Barker, who just announced he was getting the band back together for a new tour, has quite the eclectic collection in his garage with everything from a Rolls Royce Cullinan to a custom Polaris Slingshot.
He’s also wildly obsessed with Cadillacs and his 1987 Buick Grand National Experimental, which was a surprise gift from Kardashian.

In fact, it doesn’t take more than a glance at his Instagram page to realise just how obsessed he is with Cadillacs.
He actually announced his nuptials to Kardashian via a photo of the pair inside his Cadillac 1965 DeVille Convertible with a ‘Just Married’ sign hanging on the back.
So, let’s start there.
CHECK THIS OUT!
Cadillac 1965 DeVille Convertible
When it comes to Travis Barker’s car collection, it would be an offense to kick off with anything but a Cadillac.
The Blink 182 drummer celebrated his marriage to the reality TV star with a photo shoot in the DeVille outside the Santa Barbara courthouse in May.
He then shared the photos to the gram, saying “till death do us part”.
G Wagen 4×4 Squared
This custom Mercedes-Benz G550 4×4 Squared is a beast.
It has almost 18 inches of ground clearance, and Barker’s extremely proud of this.
Alongside a picture of him posing on the hood of the G, Barker said “I don’t want the truck if it ain’t lifted up”.
We’d be proud of this car if we had it too because it’s a beauty.
Starting at $230,000, it’s a 4-liter V8 engine that can churn out 416 horsepower.
The 4×4 Squared also has a superior all-wheel-drive powertrain and was built for maximum off-road capabilities.
Rolls-Royce Cullinan
Barker loves his vintage cars, but he still couldn’t go passed the Rolls-Royce Cullinan.
The Cullinan is the ultimate SUV.
Not only is it the pinnacle of luxury with a palatial cabin, but it’s also powerful.
The Cullinan is built with a twin-turbo 6.8-liter V12 that churns out 563 horsepower.
Despite its power, the Cullinan is incredibly quiet.
It’s lined with sound-proof material and thick glass to protect its passengers from the sound of its own engine and any other road noises.
Incredible, yes, but affordable, not so much.
The Cullinan has a price tag of about $340,000 and that’s without any optional extras.
Custom Polaris Slingshot
The All The Small Things musician wanted to create his very own Batmobile, and so he took the Slingshot to DUB in California to make that happen.
The tuner blacked out the Slingshot with a combination of matte and gloss paint and wrapped parts of it in the drummer’s graphics – including the seats which were custom stitched with his signature “F”.
DUB also fitted it with an epic sound system, adding speakers to the center console and the car exterior.
They also went with 24 inch Dropstars wheels and a split 5-spoke swept design, so it’s far from understated.
The bespoke Slingshot reportedly cost Barker about $40,000.
Travis Barker, who has an estimated net worth of $50 million, also owns a Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet K5 Blazer, and of course the $150,000 Vintage Buick GNX that Kourtney Kardashian gifted him for his 46th birthday in 2021.
And while he doesn’t own them anymore, he’s enjoyed time with a bunch more Cadillacs, including a 1960 Cadillac Coupe de Ville and 1941 Cadillac Series 62 Deluxe.
