Lindsay Lohan Car Crash: A falling star and her cars
Lindsay Lohan has had roughly one car crash, arrest, or DUI for every car she’s owned. And as you’ll see below, the former child star has owned a lot of cars.
After a string of hits in the early naughties that included Freaky Friday, Mean Girls, and Herbie: Fully Loaded, Lindsay Lohan earned a reputation as a party girl. Her next string of hits was of the vehicular kind, with crashes in Studio City (August, 2004), West Hollywood (October, 2005), London (November, 2006), and Beverly Hills (May, 2007). She’s also had several fender benders and has been accused of bumping into paparazzi with her car on multiple occasions.
Authorities finally got serious with the actress when cocaine was found in her Mercedes SL65 AMG convertible following the 2007 crash. Though she was placed on probation, reports of Lohan’s partying and bad behavior did not let up. On July 6th of this year, Judge Marsha Revel sentenced the actress to 90 days in prison and 90 days at an in-patient rehab facility for violating the terms of her probation. She’s scheduled to begin her sentence on July 20th.
So what does a hard-partying celebrity like Lindsay Lohan drive? We combed through the interwebz and found eight models with confirmed LiLo sightings. And while we appreciate Miss Lohan’s taste in automobiles, we do not approve of her driving while under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Stay safe out there, people!

Lindsay Lohan’s Cars: Mercedes SL65 AMG
Lohan crashed this $180,000 convertible into the back of a minivan in 2005. The actress claimed that she was looking over her shoulder to avoid paparazzi and didn’t see the van as it slowed to make an illegal U-turn. At the time, the SL65 AMG was the most expensive version of the SL-Class and featured a twin-turbo V12 engine with just over 600-horsepower. Lohan has since replaced the car with an SL550, which has a more reasonable $100k price tag and 382-horsepower engine.

Lindsay Lohan’s Cars: Ferrari F430 Spider
At over $215,000, it’s a good thing Lindsay hasn’t wrecked this Italian stallion. She was, however, spotted being driven around LA a few times in a silver model.

Lindsay Lohan’s Cars: Rolls-Royce Phantom
For a time, Lindsay rented a Rolls-Royce Phantom. At $380,000, it’s one of the most most expensive luxury cars in the world. And with a custom matte black paint job, you can rest assured that this Rolls was pricier still.

Lindsay Lohan’s Cars: Maserati Quattroporte
Lohan has been spotted all over LA in this rare Italian luxury sedan. She most famously left the car parked outside Samantha Ronson’s house after the police were called for a domestic disturbance. The authorities later towed the car for a parking violation and it was sold soon afterwords. Lindsay’s particular model was said to be a 2007 Quattroporte Sport GT, which stickered for $121,000 when new.

Lindsay Lohan’s Cars: Porsche 911
Okay, so this iconic German sports car actually belonged to gal-pal/ex, Samantha Ronson. Lindsay was nonetheless spotted in this 911 Targa a few times while shopping in Beverly Hills. The actress certainly has a thing for fast cars, doesn’t she?

Lindsay Lohan’s Cars: Cadillac Escalade

Lindsay Lohan’s Cars: Mercedes C350 sedan
The most reasonably priced car that Miss Lohan has been spotted in is this $37,000 Mercedes C350 luxury sedan. Despite the affordable (for a celebrity) price tag, this Benz can still scoot to 60 in less than six seconds. That kind of performance should come in handy if you’re late for a luncheon at the Ivy.

Lindsay Lohan’s Cars: Herbie the Love Bug
Who could forget Herbie? Lindsay drove this unlikely race car in Disney’s 2005 movie Herbie: Fully Loaded. The film features a Volkswagen Beetle with a mind of its own. Sadly, Herbie’s driving has proven better than Lindsay’s.
