Many Formula One drivers, with a lot of money in the bank, love to indulge themselves and rack up a supercar collection. While they may not use all of them, it serves as a great reminder of their varied interests in cars, and of their money. Kimi Raikkonen’s supercars are as stunning as they are beautiful.
List of Kimi Raikkonen’s Supercars
Interestingly, the very first car that the Finn owned, was a Russian car called the Lada. When he spoke to CNN, he admitted that it was a ‘robust’ car and it never broke down even once. Since then, he has owned numerous other cars – all of which are luxurious and expensive.

Ferrari Enzo
Without a doubt, the car named after Ferrari’s founder is arguably one of the greatest Ferraris ever. This stunning scarlet beast was in production between 2002 and 2004. Kimi Raikkonen somehow managed to get his hands on one of the 400 cars produced and added it to his collection.
The car possesses an advanced composite bodywork, a 660bhp V12 engine and can go from 0 to 100 kph in 3.6 seconds and reach a top speed of 355 kph. Apparently, this iconic car was Raikkonen’s first Ferrari.

The normal version of the Fiat 500 comes with two different diesel engine options. The more powerful one produces 95 hp and its acceleration from 0 to 100 takes 10.7 seconds. Its top speed is reported to be 180 kph.
