Adam Sandler has propelled himself into the league of the greatest comedic icons thanks to movies like Big Daddy, 50 First Dates and The Wedding Singer. Off camera, Sandler appears to be the same kind, loving husband and father he portrays in his films. Moreover, he seems to value his celebrity friends just as much as the friends he has known since childhood. Without a doubt, Sandler stands out in a sea of egocentric superstars because of his positive demeanor and good guy persona. But there’s another thing that helps Adam Sandler stand out from the crowd, and that’s his impressive car collection.
Over the years, the master of comedy has driven some of the most remarkable cars, including the Ferrari 488 Pista and a Cadillac DTS. Except for the Ferrari, Sandler appears to favor all-American automobiles, but who could blame him given that he has cultivated the reputation and image of an all-American good guy?
So if you love Adam Sandler or just adore beautiful cars, these are the coolest automobiles in the comedian’s collection.
The Spectacular Ferrari 488 Pista

Various media channels report that Adam Sandler owns a Ferrari 488 Pista, priced at $350,000. Ferrari equipped the Italian luxury vehicle with a 3.9-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine capable of generating 711 horsepower and 567 pound-feet of torque. According to Ferrari, the 488 Pista has “the most powerful V8 engine in the Maranello marque’s history and is the company’s special series sports car with the highest level yet of technological transfer from racing.”
Without a doubt, Sandler loves speed because this car accelerates from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 2.8 seconds and from 0 to 124 miles per hour in 7.6 seconds. Additionally, the 488 Pista reaches the top speed of 211 miles per hour. Probably, this isn’t Sandler’s preferred car when taking the kids to school or running errands, but it is still a wonderful vehicle for speeding up on the highway.
Cadillac Escalade Keeps Adam Sandler’s Family Safe

While the Ferrari 488 Pista is truly remarkable, it undoubtedly feels more like a lavish toy than a family vehicle. It should come as no surprise that Sandler also drives a gigantic Cadillac Escalade, which seems perfect to protect his family. While the Escalade is not as pricey as the Ferrari, coming close to $90,000, it still is a luxury vehicle that impresses not only with its size, but also with its luxury cabin and incredible performance.
The standard Escalade has a 6.2-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine under the hood that generates 420 horsepower with all-wheel drive. Despite its impressive size, this mammoth of a vehicle can accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 67 seconds. The 2023 model has a manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) of $79,795. Buyers can select between three engine options, such as the standard 6.2-liter V8 engine, the Duramax 3.0-liter turbo diesel six-cylinder engine, or the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 that comes on the Escalade-V.
Other celebrities that love the Cadillac Escalade include Taylor Swift, Tiger Woods, and the Kardashian clan. In 2021, Cadillac even featured several A-Listers in its commercials, such as the Jonas Brothers, Tiffany Haddish, and Sofia Vergara. Cadillac is clearly banking on the connection with the American wealthy class, as it manages to boost sales and appeal to new consumer segments. Furthermore, the car company is increasing market awareness with the help of its new brand ambassadors.
Lincoln Navigator Is An Old School Giant

It seems like Adam Sandler really likes bigger vehicles because he also owns a Lincoln Navigator that comes with a staggering MSRP of more than $107,000. In 2020, this sport utility vehicle was one of the top-rated automobiles in its class. Edmunds gave the SUV an 8.4/10 rating before stating that “The Navigator is the first vehicle in a long time that’s made us excited about the Lincoln brand. It’s awesome on many levels. It’s comfy, quick and surprisingly stylish. It’s not sporty, but no one is really expecting vehicles of this size to be. There’s road presence without being overly garish.”
The 2023 model maintained the same stellar rating of 8.4/10 from Edmunds, although the website points out that this vehicle might be “too large for some garages.” It also mentions that the 2023 model has “limited off-road capability.” On the plus side, the newest Lincoln Navigator has sufficient cargo space, a comfortable cabin with three rows of seats, strong performance, and a powerful engine. Under the hood, the 2023 model year has a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engine that generates 440 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque.
