If you live in Seattle or Bellevue there is a chance you can find Bill Gates if you know where to look and yes I’ve even seen him at PF Chang’s before having a nice dinner with his wife. So it’s not a terrible surprise that his Porsche 959 was spotted by Instagram-er thebrit86 in valet outside of a Bellevue restaurant.
The title might sound a little awkward since it’s hard to imagine celebrities actually taking road trips (unless you call Los Angeles to Coachella a road trip) but we’d still like to think that every now and then some celebs like to load up their ride and hit the open road to escape the paparazzi. We’re totally going out on a limb here because we’ve never seen a photo or David Beckham and the rest of the Beckhams pulling into a rest-stop and stretching their legs but who knows — maybe it happens!
We don’t follow Chelsea Handler all that much and I had no idea she was, did, or is dating or sleeping with 50 Cent but apparently while she was in a relationship she bought a Bentley Continental GT to “one-up” him. This ofcourse was brought to our attention by Reece Reinema on twitter which sent us looking and what do you know…

John Hennessey was recently on The Smoking Tire podcast so I thought I would call in and ask who the first celebrity was that Hennessey built a car for. (Click here to listen to the full podcast) Turns out it was none other than Jay Leno who had a Viper. I’m not sure exactly which Viper it was that Jay sent to Hennessey but I’m guessing it might have been this 1996 Viper GTS.
Also there is a great video after the jump of Leno Touring the Viper build factory while his car was being built and aside from a little less grey hair he looks about the same, t-shirt and all!
Remember that Lamborghini Aventador that Kim Kardashian bought for boyfriend Kanye West earlier this month. Well it looks like it’s no longer gloss black thanks to Platinum Motorport. We don’t know whether it was wrapped or re-sprayed but we’re guessing it was wrapped. Either way it’s looking sick. Platinum Motorsport completed a full repaint of the Aventador in 7 days. And yes, Kanye is rocking Air Yeezys. (more pics after the jump)
