by A rare 1920s Bentley was spotted in California. The car was driven by famous Hollywood actor Jason Momoa. Focus reports this here.
Jason Momoa’s vintage car with a very loud exhaust attracted everyone’s attention. The performer of the role of Aquaman told the paparazzi that it’s a Bentley Blower — one of the most famous and valuable models of its era.
Nowadays, a Bentley 4 ½ Litre Blower costs nearly 10 million dollars. It’s a very rare model — only 55 of these cars were produced between 1929 and 1932.
The Bentley Blower is equipped with a 4.5-liter engine with a mechanical supercharger, developing 175 hp in the road version and 240 hp in the racing one. In any case, the maximum speed exceeded 200 km/h, and the car is often referred to as a supercar of the 1920s.
However, it is not disputed that Jason Momoa may have cheated, and he doesn’t have an original Bentley Blower, but a high-quality replica. Interestingly, replicas of the legendary model are made not only by specialized companies — Bentley themselves recently released a limited series of 12 Blowers priced at $1.8 million.
Jason Momoa is a fan of rare cars and motorcycles. The actor has built up a large collection of Harley-Davidsons and also owns a pink 1955 Cadillac and a sporty 1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass, which he recently crashed.
