Boxing legend Floyd Mayweather has filed a lawsuit against Vegas Auto Gallery, a Las Vegas car dealership, after accusing them of deceiving him in a luxury car purchase. The lawsuit centers around one vehicle in particular, among several he purchased in July 2025.
What Mayweather Claims
- Mayweather purchased four luxury vehicles from the dealership in July 2025, including a 2018 Mercedes‑Maybach G650 Landaulet.
- He alleges that the dealership misrepresented key details about the Landaulet — including its condition, lawsuit history, and whether parts had been replaced. He also claims essential paperwork was missing or falsified (title, odometer certification, inspection records, etc.).
- Mayweather says that while he returned three of the vehicles, the dealership refused to accept the Landaulet.
Financial Details & Overpayment Claim
- The Landaulet was sold to Mayweather for about $1.2 million.
- Mayweather claims the dealership said they bought it for ~$1.1 million, but he later found out the actual cost was closer to $728,000. This discrepancy, he alleges, constitutes over half a million dollars in overpayment.
Legal Actions & Demands
- He is suing under allegations including deceptive trade practices, misrepresentation, and claims of fraudulent, willful, and malicious conduct.
- Mayweather is seeking financial damages, attorney fees, and punitive relief.
Why It’s Significant
This lawsuit highlights the high stakes when dealing with ultra‑luxury vehicles and the importance of full transparency. It also shows that even celebrities with vast resources are vulnerable to misrepresentation in luxury transactions.
What’s Next
- The case will proceed through the courts, where both sides will present evidence.
- It will likely focus on documentation, vehicle history, and the terms of sale.
- The outcome will be watched closely — not just by Mayweather’s legal team, but by luxury auto buyers, dealers, and others who might rely on dealer assurances.
