Known to be a great fan of the sport, he once joked that a golf course is the only place where he “can go dressed as a pimp and fit in perfectly”, but it would seem Samuel L. Jackson knows one or two things about cars as well. After Ferrari had George Lucas and him at their Maranello headquarters this summer, we now see him driving the latest Range Rover Sport SUV model.
Because Land Rover doesn't badge its vehicles, we can't tell you what sort of engine lurks under the hood of L. Jackson's SUV. But we want to believe it's the 500 horsepower 5-liter supercharged V8, since he can afford one.
He appeared in more than 100 films, including some that will remain in Hollywood’s history such as Pulp Fiction, Star Wars prequel trilogy, Shaft, Thor and Captain America: The First Avenger. Samuel L. Jackson has achieved critical and commercial acclaim, surpassing Frank Welker as the actor with the highest grossing film total of all time in October 2011. The man is a legend, but he is far from being the average celebrity.
Even though the 65-year old actor is rather a modest person in the way he spends his millions, it would seem he is still a car enthusiast. This summer’s visit to Maranello stands as proof he likes the old-school design, he likes them classic and powerful. And the car he is currently driving only comes to back up that statement.
The Pulp Fiction star was pictured doing a Thanksgiving grocery store run the other day. We can’t tell for sure, but it would seem the car he was driving is the 2013 Range Rover Sport, basically the latest model of the luxury SUV.
Well, we say good for him!
