Floyd Mayweather Jr. likes to show off that he has a lot of money, and his latest purchase is a $4.8 million Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita. The Swedish vehicle pops from 0 to 60 mph in less than three seconds and hits a maximum speed of 250 mph. We know it is a big deal because on Instagram, Mayweather says the car is "for the super rich."
Mayweather says in his Instagram caption that his Koenigsegg CCXR Trevitas is one of two in the world, but according to gtspirit.com, there are three.
This will replace his Ferrari Enzo, a car he bought for $3.2 million in January. Mayweather put the Enzo, previously owned by the Shiekh of Abu Dhabi, on the market for $3.8 million in June. Mayweather reportedly drove only 194 miles in the Ferrari during his ownership.
According to Forbes, in June, Mayweather had recorded $300 million in earnings during the past 12 months. He shattered Tiger Woods' previous 12-month record of $115 million in 2008. If Mayweather worked on Wall Street in 2014, he would have been the 14th top-earning hedge fund manager.
Here's Mayweather, 38, with his cars (and private plane) earlier this year:
On Aug. 4, it was announced Mayweather's next opponent will be Andre Berto on Sept. 12 in Las Vegas. Mayweather will put his 48-0 record on the line in what he insists will be his final bout before retirement.
