At 1 am on the 31st, as Son Heung-min prepares to play in preparation for the match against Saudi Arabia, his collection of luxury cars, mentioned in a broadcast, once again attracts people’s attention.
According to Mnet’s “TMI SHOW” broadcast last year, Son Heung-min ranked first in the “stars with the most expensive cars” ranking.
Son Heung-min reportedly receives a weekly salary of 200,000 pounds (about 310 million won) and receives large advertising revenue. It is said that there are more than 30 advertisements in which he appeared from 2018 to 2022.
In particular, after becoming the top scorer in 2022, its value increased significantly, and advertising expenditures jumped from 1 billion won in 2019 to 8 billion won in 2022. There was also news that some companies are already evaluating the possibility of renewing the contracts.

Furthermore, Son Heung-min is known to own several imported luxury cars. According to British newspaper The Sun, the supercar enthusiast owns an impressive collection of cars worth around 2.4 billion won, including the LaFerrari.
In Son Heung-min’s collection, a particularly eye-catching vehicle is “LaFerrari”: it is a rare model with only 499 units produced worldwide and its price is around 1.7 billion won. LaFerrari’s representative color is red, but he famously chose black to avoid Arsenal’s representative colour, red.
What makes the LaFerrari special is that it is not a car that can simply be bought with money. To purchase this vehicle you must have previously owned a Ferrari vehicle or be a person who reflects the image of the Ferrari brand. The premium for the LaFerrari has already been more than doubled since the booking stage, and the current price is known to exceed 10 billion won.
Son Heung-min is said to own a variety of luxury vehicles, including a Bentley Continental GT, an Audi R8 Coupe, a Range Rover Sport and a Maserati Levante.

He was also seen signing autographs for fans in his car after the game. Through the photos released in these hours, some media reported that he owned a LaFerrari.
However, the car actually driven by Son Heung-min is believed to be a “Ferrari 458” and not a “LaFerrari”. This is because the side mirror support portion of this vehicle is thicker than that of the LaFerrari. The shape of the side mirrors of the Ferrari 458 proves this.
The Ferrari 458 is an Italian supercar with an MR-type V8 engine and the successor to the F430. This model, which uses a 4.5-liter 8-cylinder engine and was produced from 2010 to 2015, was discontinued with the “458 Speciale”.
The successor model, the 488 GTB, uses a twin-turbo engine. The Ferrari 458 is notable for being the last Ferrari to use a naturally aspirated 8-cylinder engine. At the time of release, the price was between 380 million won and 432 million won, and the currently used price is between 150 million won and 230 million won.
Although Son Heung-min does not currently own a LaFerrari, considering his income, it can be said that he has the ability to purchase one at any time if necessary.
