This year, the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport set a new world record top speed of 431 km/h. The Bugatti seems a fitting addition to Jay-Z’s already impressive collection of rare vehicles, which includes a Maybach 62S, a Pagani Zonda Roadster and a Ferrari F430 Spider.A source told The Sun newspaper: “Jay-Z has one of the most enviable collections of bling cars in the world – but even for him the Bugatti is special.”Obviously the money isn’t a factor for Beyonce, but he will be touched that out of everything she could have bought him, she chose something he’ll treasure for years.”

Beyonce’s birthday surprise must have been on the books for a while, as the Bugatti had to be ordered a year in advance, and is only one of 30 ever made.As well as his enviable car collection, Jay-Z is also an ambassador for American motor giant GMC.Beyonce and the ’99 Problems’ rapper Jay-Z were named the highest earning couple in Showbiz last year, placing them above fellow Hollywood heavyweights Brad Pitt and Angeline Jolie, and David and Victoria Beckham.Jay-Z and Beyonce are currently in Australia, as Jay-Z supports U2 in the Australian leg of their ‘360 Degrees’ World Tour.
