#37: James Hetfield’s $18 Million “Black Pearl” Custom Coupe
Metallica’s James Hetfield owns the “Black Pearl,” a one-of-a-kind custom coupe valued near $18 million. Built by Rick Dore Kustoms, this hand-crafted beauty blends art deco design with modern engineering. Its curving lines, deep gloss finish, and chrome details make it more sculpture than automobile.

The Black Pearl showcases Hetfield’s passion for design and craftsmanship. Every panel is unique, shaped from raw metal with precision and artistry. Now displayed at the Petersen Automotive Museum, it stands as a perfect fusion of rock legend and rolling art.
