Discover the jaw‑dropping supercars owned by Call of Duty creator Vince Zampella, from a one‑of‑a‑kind Pagani to a Bugatti W16 Mistral. Read more now!
Vince Zampella, the visionary behind the blockbuster Call of Duty franchise, was as famous for his gaming legacy as he was for his extravagant garage. The Los Angeles native met a tragic end in a high‑speed crash involving a Ferrari 296 GTS, a loss that sent shockwaves through both the gaming and automotive worlds.
Pagani Huayra Roadster Executor – A One‑Off Marvel
Among his prized possessions, Zampella owned the sole Pagani Huayra Roadster Executor ever built. Named after Darth Vader’s starfighter from Star Wars, this hypercar combines hand‑crafted carbon‑fiber artistry with a V12 engine that roars like a sci‑fi battle.
Bugatti Chiron – The First U.S. Model
The collector purchased a historic Bugatti Chiron that was the first of its kind sold in the United States. The hypercar’s body was later upgraded with a unique carbon‑fiber skin, enhancing both performance and exclusivity.
Bugatti W16 Mistral – Italian Red Perfection
Fresh from the factory, Zampella received the limited‑edition Bugatti W16 Mistral, the only open‑top variant built on the Chiron platform. Its striking Italian Red paint makes it a moving piece of art.
Porsche 918 Spyder – Part of the “Holy Trinity”
The German legend found a place in his collection as one of the three cars that compose the so‑called “Holy Trinity” of modern supercars. Zampella’s 918 Spyder dons the iconic Guards Red hue.
Lamborghini Aventador SVJ 63 – A Celebration of Heritage
To commemorate Lamborghini’s 63rd anniversary, the maker released 63 units each of the hard‑top and open‑top SVJ 63. Zampella’s version is a hard‑top, embodying the brand’s aggressive design language.
Aston Martin Valkyrie Spider – F1‑Inspired Exclusivity
Only 85 Valkyrie Spiders were built, each borrowing technology from Red Bull Racing’s Formula 1 cars. Zampella’s example showcases the seamless blend of track‑ready engineering and road‑legal comfort.
McLaren Obsession – From Elva to Solus GT
While his garage housed many marques, McLaren held a special place in Zampella’s heart. Highlights include:
- McLaren Elva (no windshield) – finished in the exclusive MSO livery borrowed from the iconic McLaren M1A.
- McLaren Senna XP “Lap of the Gods” – an ultra‑light, UK‑flag‑inspired tribute to Ayrton Senna, upgraded from the original Senna prototype.
- McLaren Senna GTR – a track‑focused evolution painted in Supernova Silver.
- McLaren P1 GTR (road‑converted) – originally a pure race car, later transformed for street use by Lanzante.
- McLaren Artura GT4 – a non‑hybrid, race‑ready version stripped of its hybrid assist for pure performance.
- McLaren Solus GT – one of only 25 globally, featuring a single‑seat F1‑style cockpit and a staggering 840 hp output.
A Legacy of Speed and Style
Zampella’s untimely death reminds us that life, unlike a video game, offers only one chance. His supercar collection remains a testament to a man who pursued excellence both on the screen and on the road. For enthusiasts seeking inspiration, his garage stands as a masterclass in rarity, performance, and unapologetic passion.
