Even though he’s a professional skateboarder, even Ryan Sheckler could use a ride from time to time. And, when you’ve starred in your own reality television show, launched various clothing lines and featured in Entrepreneur.com, you have to roll in style.
Recently the 19-year-old was photographed driving a black Ferrari F430, which is apparently a popular choice among celebrities since fellow reality star Kim Kardashian was also seen driving the same car a couple of weeks ago.
In an article that appeared on Entrepreneur.com, Sheckler was compared to skating’s version of Jay-Z and spending his non-competing days in his office promoting his clothing line, signing shoes for fans or working with his mom who runs his charitable foundation.
But since he’s a business man, Scheckler can probably afford the Ferrari, which has a price range of $173,079 to $282,618.
Speed may be key for someone rising in the business world, which is easy for the Ferrari F430’s V8 engine that develops 490 horsepower at 8,500 rpm and 342 pounds-feet of torque at 5,250 rpm, according to Cars.com. All of that gets the driver from 0 to 60 mph in a time of four seconds.
