What’s the first word that pops in your head when you hear the legendary words JOHN CENA? Wrestling? Muscle? Well, what if we told you that after you’re done reading this it’ll probably still be “muscle”, but a different kind of muscle… the “muscle car” kind of muscle? Hang tight, John Cena has something in store for you. Those that love Cena but also love some quality road action will surely have a lot to say about his whips more than about his slick ring game, and – you – will – be – awed – by – what – you – see.
Cena’s car collection can give car collectors envy, but we’re just showing these to you for automotive relief. Low key car enthusiast, Cena has a horde of vehicles in his garage and we’ve managed to uncover about 23 of them. Before the browsing begins, we’d like to mention Cena is an absolute American muscle man, from ring to road. Here goes!
1. 1966 Dodge Charger 426
Power: 425hp
Intimidating, isn’t it? Almost as if made for Cena himself, you know it means business when there’s a Hemi engine thrown in, vroom, zoom to kingdom come!
2. 1969 AMC AMX
Power: 315hp

One of only 32, this Big Bad Green mean machine is what could turn many green with envy. Cena pulling out of this one would be quite a sight.
3. 1969 COPO Chevrolet Camaro
Power: 425hp
Top Speed: 200kmph
Chevy did the world a favour by building this red beauty, doesn’t it look like it’s just stepped hot out of a drag race?
4. 1969 Dodge Daytona
Power: 425hp

This flaming orange beast is as feisty as a quick fight in the ring, anybody could need an “Attitude Adjustment” after taking it for a wild spin.
5. 1970 AMC Rebel The Machine
Power: 340hp
Don’t mistake its white exterior for lack of power, The Machine is an ultimate muscle car that could probably rip your hair off your head if it passes you by in action.
6. 1970 Buick GSX
Power: 350hp

Cena sure likes to experiment with colours, even though power more or less remains constant, this yellow Buick GSX is a stunning vehicle inside out.
7. 1970 Chevrolet Nova
Power: 300hp
This was the second car that Cena bought. It was the first car that he drove legally.
8. 1970 Mercury Cougar Eliminator
Power: 290hp
Cena didn’t buy this V8 monster manufactured by Ford until his later years. Raw power, right?
9. 1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass Rallye 350
Power: 310hp
The headlamps, the nostrils, the lemon yellow body work… absolutely everything about this vehicle screams power!
10. 1970 Plymouth Superbird
Power: 390hp
Don’t confuse this with the Dodge Daytona we mentioned above, the spoiler and the nose of the car can be deceiving but these two cars are world apart, yet equally powerful.
11. 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge
Power: 370hp
Another rarity, one in 68, the Cardinal Red Pontiac is one hell of a magnificent beast.
12. 1971 AMC Hornet SC/360
Power: 329hp

This one is John Cena’s absolute favourite, especially for a daily run. You’re more like to catch him in the Hornet, getting groceries, than in any of his other cars.
13. 1971 Ford Torino GT
Power: 370hp
A Cobra engine in a Ford? While this may have become okay later on, it wasn’t in 1971. That’s how you get 370hp.
14. 1971 Plymouth Road Runner
Power: 300hp
Much like the swift Roadrunner you watched as a kid on Cartoon Network, this Plymouth has some serious beep-beep skills, here and gone!
15. 1984 Cadillac Coupe Deville
Power: 135hp
This vehicle doesn’t sit in Cena’s garage anymore but it was worth a mention because it was the first car he owned, and at the age of 14. Cena you thug!
16. 1989 Jeep Wrangler
Power: 126hp

The big guy got himself a big car after bagging his first major wrestling contract.
17. 1991 Lincoln Continental
Power: 190hp
This is the car that helped John Cena while he tried to make a career in wrestling. We all owe this Continental.
18. 2006 Dodge Viper
Power: 510hp

How can any car collection be complete without this pulsating legend?
19. 2006 Ford GT
Power: 550hp
If you’re wondering whether John Cena knows what he’s talking about then this video is all you need to see.
20. 2007 Charger SRT-8 Super Bee
Power: 425hp
Who cares about Bumblebee when you’ve got a bright yellow Charger. Clearly John Cena doesn’t.
21. 2007 Ford Mustang Saleen Parnelli Jones Limited Edition
Power: 400hp
Out of the 500 garages worldwide that house this gorgeous beast, one is Cena’s.
22. 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
Power: 638hp

Even though John hated Corvettes, he couldn’t resist buying this ZR1. Needless to say, the Chevy managed to win him over.
23. 2013 Custom Corvette CR InCENArator
Power: 491hp
A Corvette CR that was customised to Cena’s tastes, the InCENArator is fantastic machine. The highlight of the InCENArator is its set of eight flame spitting exhaust pipes on its rear– absolutely incinerating!
