Jakob Ingebrigtsen’s Need for Speed Extends Beyond the Track

Jakob Ingebrigtsen isn’t just one of the greatest middle-distance runners of this generation—he’s also a serious car enthusiast. While he’s best known for his Olympic gold and sub-3:30 1500m times, off the track Ingebrigtsen has a growing passion for high-performance vehicles.

His three most talked-about cars reveal a lot about his taste for speed and engineering excellence:

1. 1989 Ferrari 348 GTB

A true classic among car collectors, Ingebrigtsen has personally modified this model with a front lip, spoiler, half cage, and bucket seats. This car reflects his appreciation for vintage craftsmanship with a modern edge.

• Estimated value: $70,000–$95,000 (depending on upgrades and condition)

2. Porsche 911 GT3 RS

Built for the track, the GT3 RS is one of Porsche’s most revered models. Jakob has been spotted racing it, showing that his love for competition isn’t limited to running.

• Estimated value: $180,000–$220,000

3. Mercedes-Benz AMG E63 (Sold)

Before selling it, Ingebrigtsen owned a high-powered AMG E63—an elegant yet aggressive vehicle known for both speed and comfort.

• Estimated past value: $100,000

Combined, these three cars bring the estimated total to over $350,000—a clear sign that Jakob invests in quality and performance in every aspect of life.

As he continues to chase records on the track, it’s clear Ingebrigtsen also enjoys the thrill of speed behind the wheel. His social media occasionally features glimpses of his cars, making it evident that his interest in motorsport is more than just a side hobby—it’s a passion.
