The luxury Maybach supercar was P Diddy's gift to his son on his 16th birthday
Never one to do things by half, rapper P Diddy certainly didn’t hold back when it came to celebrating his son’s 16th birthday as he threw him a lavish £1 million bash in New York, and later presented him with a £220k supercar; just one problem there though, the kid can’t drive.
However doting father Diddy has thought of everything and has even hired a full-time chauffeur to drive the teenager. The German Maybach has impressive form boasting a twin-turbo charged 5.5 litre engine, 550bhp, and clocks up 0-60 in just 5 seconds.
Whilst the chauffeur experiences the joys of driving this exclusive car, 16-year-old Justin Dior Combs will have a chance to get to grips with the extravagant onboard features. There’s a DVD player complete with screens, a surround sound entertainment system, reclining seats and a fridge plus champagne glass holders. There’s another hitch, young Combs isn’t old enough to drink; better hope Diddy had the foresight to swap the champers for cola.
At the over-the-top bash, birthday boy Justin was seated in his own throne whilst a number of top acts, including Lil’ Kim, performed especially. The whole event was filmed by reality MTV show My Super Sweet Sixteen.
As well as the car, 40-year-old Diddy gave his son a cheque for £6,000, which he promptly donated to the charity Yele Haiti. Far from being the spoilt little rich kid, Justin exclaimed that he was “ecstatic” after receiving his special gift, before adding, “I’m so blessed and thankful for all this.”
Only last December we reported how Facebook had announced that they’d attracted 1,000 fans within a matter of weeks of starting out on the site. In just over a month, that number has risen again by an extra 3,000 which is a remarkable achievement for the company.
