Just like his Iron Man/Tony Stark alter ego, Robert Downey Jr has an amazing car collection.
However, the cars in his possession are unlike any other supercars.
The movie star has also heavily modified six classic rides to be more eco-friendly by turning them into EVs.
Robert Downey Jr’s amazing car collection
Self-professed ‘gearhead’ Robert Downey Jr has one of the most environmentally friendly car collections among all Hollywood celebrities.
The Avenger has turned vintage rides, luxury vehicles, sports cars, and even America’s oldest classic cars to be fully electric.
Last year, Downey also announced the RDJ Dream Cars Sweepstakes, in which he was giving away all six cars he modified.
However, winning one of these rides is still possible (if you are lucky) as the sweepstakes will end this July.
Here are some other notable vehicles in Robert Downey Jr’s epic car collection, worth $10 million.
Notable cars in the collection
You might remember seeing Robert Downey Jr driving an Audi e-tron GT in Avengers: Endgame.
As it turns out, the prototype car belongs to the Avenger star and is one of the rarest vehicles in his collection.
That’s not the only car he got from his Marvel movies.
He also got to take home a one-of-a-kind concept sports car, the Acura NSX, custom-made for the very first Avengers film.
According to GQ, Robert Downey Jr also has a matt green Bentley Continental GT, given to him as part of his payment for Iron Man 3.
Downey also owns a blue Ferrari California T with a 3.9-litre V8 engine.
His love for cars is not only limited to modern supercars, as he also owns a low-mileage 1965 Chevrolet Corvette.
This classic American car was also converted to an EV for his show Downey’s Dream Cars.
It is currently up for grabs for a lucky winner through Downey’s RDJ Dream Cars Sweepstakes.
