The “Girl on Fire” singer isn’t the only one with the new black and chrome luxury car. Lil Baby also recently added the masterpiece to his car collection. “‘Virgil’ Maybach So Sweeeet,” the rapper wrote in an Instagram post. The Mercedes-Maybach S-Class S680 model was unveiled at a car show last December and was designed by Abloh, before his death in November of 2021 death, in partnership with Mercedes-Benz’s chief design officer Gorden Wagener, according to Dezeen. There will only be 152 units of the car available next month.

“Virgil was a creative that all of us here at Mercedes-Benz hugely admired. Between the innovations possible within the Mercedes-Benz teams and Virgil’s unique capacity as a cultural visionary, the opportunity was really to redefine what a fashion and automotive collaboration could look like,” Wagener told the media outlet.
