Both Stephen Curry and Zion Williamson are called to dominate this season in the NBA. At TORK we move that duel from the field to the garage: which of the two has the best car? Find out with us!
A game between the New Orleans Pelicans against the Golden State Warriors is a guaranteed spectacle. In the ranks of both quintets there are two of the players who are called to be protagonists this season in the NBA: Zion Williamson on the one hand and Stephen Curry on the other. From Tork we go further. We moved that duel from the basketball courts to the garages to try to find out who has the best car. Join us!
Williamson, who is seen as a younger version of Shaquille O’Neal, surprised us when we opened his garage door. We expected to find a 4×4 that would challenge all types of asphalt when reality Һit us square in the face. The power forward is elegant. His favorite car attests to this: a Mercedes-AMG GT.
This is what Zion Williamson’s Mercedes looks like
This luxury sports car is part of the high-performance division of Mercedes-Benz. It was presented to the world for the first time in 2014 and Williamson shelled out about $130,000 to get his own.
What can we highlight about this Mercedes? In addition to its elegance, so characteristic for the German manufacturer’s models, its mechanical composition deserves special mention: 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine capable of producing about 476 HP of maximum power. Mercedes describes it as a sports car that combines performance, luxury and style. And if cars look like their owners, this Mercedes fits Williamson like a glove.
Stephen Curry opts for the familiar: a Range RoverBut now let’s talk about Stephen Curry, the four-time NBA champion and considered by many to be the G.O.A.T. of our times. Far from the glamor that Williamson possesses with his Mercedes, Curry presents us with a much more functional car. As a father, he must take care of his children. From there we understand his Range Rover Sport LWB.
This is the longest luxury SUV in the entire Land Rover catalog. Curry paid about $113,000 for this spacious, luxurious truck that makes you feel in the comfort of your living room. Perhaps that’s one of the reasons why Curry preferred it over a high-end supercar.
According to the Land Rover website, this model is equipped with a large amount of technology inside as well as functions that allow greater comfort for its occupants. For example, ventilation and folding of their seats to gain space. Simply put, it’s a family truck.
Who wins?The bаttle seems unequal. But the reality is that each of the cars adjusts to the needs of its carriers. On the one hand, Zion Williamson takes his first steps in the NBA and seeks to look elegant in front of the cameras. The Mercedes is his ideal companion. And on the other hand, Curry has already won everything and wants to share more with his family, so there is no better option than his suρer comfortable and spacious Range Rover. In short, we declared a technical tie.
