MSRPs of the most expensive cars in the viral 40-car garage

At A Glance
- We estimate the prices of some specific vehicles featured in the viral video of the 40-car garage.
- Many of the vehicles there can actually be purchased from official Philippine distributors.
No doubt, by now, many have already seen that dream garage warehouse containing some 40 cars. Comprised of various Japanese, American and European luxury brands all under one roof, it was certainly shocking to see such a collection supposedly owned by a couple whose business many would typically not consider lucrative.
Nonetheless, the collection has come to light and while it’s difficult to estimate the total value of all the vehicles, we can at least estimate some specific vehicles featured in that video.
Contrary to what many might believe, many of those cars may not necessarily be smuggled. In fact, most of the vehicles featured in the video can actually be legitimately purchased or ordered from the showrooms of their official Philippine distributors. While not always on display, many of these vehicles actually have listed prices.
Bear in mind that these prices are based on the MSRP listed by the authorized distributors of these vehicles. They come in a price range rather than one specific price because of the sheer number of options the client can choose from, which may add to the vehicle's price.
These prices include the necessary taxes and customs duties that were paid, assuming these vehicles were acquired through authorized distributors. These are also for showroom stock vehicles. Bulletproof or specially commissioned vehicles are even more expensive due to the extnsive modifications required.
Without further ado, here's the prices of some of the vehicles we could identify.
Rolls-Royce Cullinan (₱55-70M)
The Rolls-Royce Cullinan is named after one of the world’s largest diamonds and offers the same unparalleled luxury one has come to expect from a Rolls-Royce but now in SUV form. This vehicle features chrome and brightwork, and wheel logos that stay upright even when the car is rolling. Each one comes with a hand-painted pinstripe across the body and bold-colored brake calipers behind its wheels. The Rolls-Royce boasts of unrivalled legroom and pampers with its trademark Magic Carpet Ride that smoothens out all the imperfections on the road.
In the cabin, customers can opt for the Starlight Headliner that duplicates the night sky from as seen from their home with pinlight LED lights. The rear suicide doors also come with built-in umbrellas for the occasional rainy day. Though equipped with only the finest Carbon Tech Fiber and leather, the interior can also be customized to the client’s desire, like say 'Hermes orange' leather seats. A refrigerator can be fit to store wine, champagne or any preferred refreshments along with matching glasses. In the trunk hide viewing chairs that sit on swivels that can fold out for the owners to have a quaint conversation while admiring their estate. Of course, all these additions also come with a cost, but who's counting?
Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 (₱25-30M)
You may have already seen this car on Tiktok videos. This is the vehicle that features a “bounce” mode designed to get out of sand, but is usually used to show off. The Mercedes-Maybach GLS is easily the most luxurious model offered by Mercedes-Benz, distributed in the Philippines by Inchcape. The Maybach line of vehicles is several notches more opulent than a standard Mercedes, and this GLS is no exception. Built upon the standard GLS, the Maybach GLS is strictly a four-seater.
The best seats in the house are in the rear, designed to emulate an airline’s first class passenger seat with several ways to recline. They also include built-in massagers. Each seat gets its own HD screen and the entertainment system is made up of a 28-speaker Burmeister 3D surround sound system. Optional extras include a refrigerated compartment with silver-plated champagne flutes.
Chevrolet Suburban 4WD High Country (₱9.6M)
2025 Suburban High Country
The Chevrolet Suburban continues to be one of the largest and longest SUVs one can buy these days. Measuring a staggering 5.7 meters long, this seven-seater ensures everyone (even those in the third row) get generous legroom. The locally-offered Suburban is powered by a 5.3-liter V8 engine. As such, aside from the already staggering sticker price, there’s also the large fuel penalty to consider.

The interior boasts of full-leather upholstery with a Cocoa Dune interior finish exclusively for the High Country variant. It also comes with wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto hooked up to a Bose 9-speaker sound system.
Mercedes-AMG G63 (₱25 – 26M)
The Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen hardly needs an introduction. G-Wagen is actually short for its full name, "Geländewagen" meaning "all-terrain vehicle." Initially designed as a commercial vehicle for companies to use to get to inaccessible locations, the G-Wagen has evolved from a utility vehicle to easily the most recognized status symbol on four wheels today.
The G63 in particular is powered by a 4.0-liter V8 engine, producing 580-Ps and 850-Nm of torque that can rocket it from a standstill to 100-km/h in just 4.5-seconds. Inside, G63 boasts of a luxurious cabin with Nappa leather upholstery that can be had in a variety of colors. It boasts of LED ambient lighting, and high-definition dual digital displays on the dashboard that are powered by the brand's MBUX infotainment system. Passengers behind can even opt for individual entertainment screens mounted on the backs of the front seats for an additional cost.
Bentley Bentayga EWB (₱25-35M)
Like its many luxury competitors, Bentley also offers the pinnacle of rolling luxury in SUV form. The Bentayga is easily one of the most expensive models the brand offers and for good reason. It’s powered by a 4.0-liter V8 engine that delivers 550-PS and 770-Nm of torque. It goes from 0-100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds. It also comes with a Dynamic Ride anti-roll system and All-Wheel steering to allow the vehicle to handle tight confines, despite being the even longer extended wheelbase (EWB) edition.
This SUV is actually just a four-seater as the back seats offer first-class style seating with up to 22 power-assisted ways to adjust the seat via an included handheld wireless tablet. In between the two seats, a chiller can be fitted to store a bottle of wine and champagne as well as glasses.
Maserati Levante Hybrid (₱8.5-9.5M)
The Maserati Levante thankfully isn’t all about conspicuous consumption. This particular model is a mild-hybrid, and as such produces less emissions and consumes less fuel than the typical Levante. It’s powered by a smaller 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that's paired with a 48V belt-starter generator (BSG) system. It has a total system output of 330 PS at 5750 rpm and 450 Nm of torque is available at 2,250 RPM. However, it’s still quite fast, accelerating from 0 – 100 km/h in only 6 seconds. It's also capable of achieving a top speed of over 240 km/h.
The interior features a seven-inch multi-info display for the driver and an 8.4-inch touchscreen for entertainment. The SUV also comes with the new Maserati Intelligent Assistant (MIA) that can accept voice commands and runs on Android.
BMW X7 xDrive 40d (₱10-11M)
Supplanting the X5 as the new flagship SUV of BMW, the X7 is a 7-series that can go off-road. The X7 is propelled by a TwinPower Turbo inline-six diesel but still makes 352-PS with 720-Nm of torque. It tips the scales at 2.3 tonnes, but you’d never guess that with how fast it can accelerate. The X7 features an air suspension system to mitigate any road bumps, allowing passengers to feel like they’ve practically glided over bumps.
Jeep Gladiator [discontinued locally] (₱5M)
The Jeep Gladiator is the pick-up version of the popular Jeep Wrangler. While not typically considered a luxury car, it’s still quite expensive when compared to other pickups offered in the country. It’s powered by a 3.6-liter V6 gasoline engine producing 285 horsepower and 352 Nm of torque.
2025 Jeep Gladiator Mojave X
Like all Wranglers, the Gladiator’s roof and doors can actually be removed. While it’s not as easy as a convertible, it’s still quite a unique proposition. It also has a unique three-position tailgate, allowing owners to swing it or swivel it in different ways. The interior may not be plush, but it’s designed to be rugged and can even be washed down with a hose if mud ever gets inside.
What about the others?
Chances are, you’ve likely seen other vehicles like the Lincoln Navigator, GMC Yukon Denali, Cadillac Escalade, and Toyota Sequoia. Unfortunately, these models are not officially sold in the Philippines and can only be acquired through grey market auto dealers. That being the case, it’s difficult to get a more exact price as this may vary depending on the seller and the vehicle’s equipment level.
Nonetheless, this breakdown of some of the more luxurious cars in that viral garage should give you some idea of how much the collection may actually cost once totaled up. With these eight cars alone, our running total is already over ₱170M. One can only imagine how high it will be with 32 cars more.
