Jimmy Butler's daily driving is shockingly simple considering his status and net worth. The Miami Heat shooting forward is often seen rolling on the streets of Philadelphia with his 2017 Toyota Sienna. Jimmy said to TMZ, "I still do drive a minivan, so if you see that rolling down the street, I’m for sure in it".
Starting at $29,750, the 2017 Toyota Sienna is one of the best minivans in the market. It comes equipped with a 296-hp 3.5-liter V6 and is the only minivan with an all-wheel-drive system. The FWD trims of Sienna take 6.8 seconds to hit 0-60 mph.
The Toyota Sienna offers impressive comfort and practicality. The interior seats up to eight passengers and all three rows are spacious. The higher models come with second-row captain's chairs, perforated seats, power-adjustable and heated front seats, optional lounge seats, dynamic radar cruise control, a pre-collision system, and many more. For utility, the Sienna provides a 39.1 cubic-feet cargo trunk followed by 87.1 ft3 and 150 ft3 of additional space.

" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Miami Heat star was driving an old Ford Bronco. Jimmy's first-generation Bronco is heavily customized with a bright red exterior, black grille, bumper, and a roll cage. The classic Bronco has black Y-spoke off-road rims with all-terrain tires and aftermarket off-road suspensions.The first-generation Bronco had a production run of 11 years, from 1966 to 1977. The Bronco arrived with a 170 cubic-inch six-cylinder engine offering 105 horsepower as standard. A 200-hp V8 was optional. During its launch, the Bronco was one of the best off-road SUVs in the market, with 9.45 inches of ground clearance and a 92-inch wheelbase.
The Cadillac Escalade is immensely popular among celebrities for its sweet combination of power, luxury, looks, and a long list of features. Jimmy Butler once owned an Escalade, but we aren't sure whether the SUV still rests in his garage.
The 2023 Cadillac Escalade starts at $79,295 and tops out at $152,195 for the flagship V-Series. A 420-hp 6.2-liter V8 is standard, with a 277-hp 3.0-liter turbo diesel inline-six engine being optional. The Escalade V models have a 682-hp 6.2-liter supercharged V8 and can hit 0-60 mph in 4.3 seconds.
The Escalade's cabin offers luxurious treatment with best-in-class creature comforts, technology, and space. The Escalade seats seven, with plenty of passenger space provided in all three rows. It offers 41.5 cubic feet of standard cargo space, with 94.1 and 142.8 cubic feet behind the second and first rows respectively.
Features like semi-aniline seats, power-adjustable, heated and ventilated front seats with massage, heated second row, OLED displays, AKG premium audio system, a plethora of safety features, and many more are equipped.
Jimmy Butler owned a custom second-generation Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck that had a matte black exterior and eight-spoke custom chrome wheels. The second-generation Silverado debuted in 2007 with a starting price of $17,860. The redesigned Silverado was sold in five trims, two bed and wheelbase options, and four engine choices: a 195-hp 4.3-liter V8, 295-hp 4.8-liter V8, 315-hp 5.3-liter V8, and a 367-hp 6.0-liter V8.
He also had a Jeep Wrangler. Similar to the matte black customized Silverado, the Wrangler, too, boasted black exterior paint along with a black Star Cap 4×4 alloy wheel coupled with mud-terrain tires. We assume his Wrangler belonged to the third generation launched in 2007.
The Wrangler JK was developed during the Daimler-Chrysler association and was sold in three main trims: Wrangler X, Sahara, and the famous Rubicon trim. The 2007 Wrangler was introduced with a 4-door model, making it more spacious than the previous generation. All three trims got power from a 3.8-liter V6 that produced 205 hp and 240 pound-feet of torque. However, we are highly uncertain whether the basketball star still possesses the truck.
Apart from the Cadillac Escalade full-size luxury SUV, the Miami Heat basketball star had a Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600. The 2023 Mercedes-Maybach GLS starts at $170,000, which makes it the costliest vehicle in Jimmy Butler's car collection.
The Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 is an all-rounder with impressive power, a slew of luxury features, best-in-class electronics, and safety features. Under its hood lies a 550-hp hybrid 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 that pushes it from 0-60 mph in 4.8 seconds to reach 0 to 60 mph.
Jimmy Butler's Mercedes-Maybach GLS has the Obsidian Black Metallic exterior and the interior features a combination of black Nappa leather upholstery with piano lacquer flowing lines interior trim. Standard features in the GLS 600 include power, heated and ventilated front seats, heated and ventilated rear seats, front and rear massage seats, a pair of 12.3-inch displays, voice control, 3D navigation, wireless charging, and a heap of other features.

Among his set of SUVs and trucks, rested a gorgeous Porsche 911 Carrera S. Jimmy's white Porsche Carrera S cost north of $130,000, making it the second-costliest car he owned.
The Carrera S is equipped with various performance-oriented features like Active suspensions, an 8-speed PDK gearbox with a rear-wheel-drive system, power-adjustable and heated sports seats, a rear diffuser, and various other amenities.
The 911 Carrera S features the iconic 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged boxer-six engine that unleashes 443 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque to push it from 0-60 mph in just 3.3 seconds.
