What do you do when you are the lead star of The Matrix trilogy which grossed over $1.7 billion worldwide?

You get yourself a one-of-a-kind Porsche 911 and a custom bike to suit your style, according to Keanu Reaves.

The actor has been known to have a thing for fast and loud vehicles, and his latest purchase has created waves across the internet.

Reeves has got himself a black Carrera 4S with a sunroof and manual transmission – a sign of a motoring purist.

According to the 51-year-old actor, these features are important to him.

<p> I don’t just love hitting turns and apexes. I enjoy the fact that the car allows me to be fast and efficient. I have developed a bond with it.</p>

It’s not just the cars that catch Keanu’s eyes, he also loves motorcycles.

He teamed up with Gard Hollinger to open up Arch Motorcycles, to create one-off bikes. The first one to come out of their garage is the KRGT-1 – it’s not something that you see on the road every day.

They plan to make as many as 100 of these models.
