Kanayo O. Kanayo Cars
Bentley Continental GT N71million
The car was gotten in 2018 and was revealed
when he decided to wear a purple dress which
is the same color as the car. It has the following
features, with its 6.0 liter, twin-turbocharged
W12 engine, a step-change in technology and a
truly stunning design language, the Continental
GT is unmatched in its class. This Bentley GT
coupé is the quintessential grand tourer –
phenomenally powerful, beautifully designed
and exquisitely crafted.
The Continental GT features clean, super
formed lines and a wide, low body, evoking a
sense of speed and presence. On unlocking the
car, a pre-programmed sequence of exterior
lighting welcomes you. To complement the
car’s striking interior design, the interior mood
lighting (fitted as standard) can configure to
your preference. With lighting strips created to
accentuate the car’s key design lines, you can
choose vibrant or muted settings in seven
colors, as well as backlighting the tread plates
in your chosen color.
2007 Toyota Camry 4.5million
This is Kanayo’s regular car as he uses it for
his day-to-day movement and activities due to
its economical and simple nature. The car has a
good performance, and accommodating
passenger cabin, and a long track record of
reliability make the Toyota Camry a favorite of
both the reviewer and the consumer, and the
2007 model is no exception.
Toyota Land Cruiser N30million
This spacious car was gotten after he signed his
endorsement deal with Globacom Nigeria. The
Toyota Prado is a large SUV-type wagon with a
seven-seat cabin, proven reliability, and
peerless service back-up. For a big 4WD vehicle
it is very comfortable as a day-to-day family
car, but it is also built extra tough and is one of
the best choices for long outback trips. The 2.8-
litre turbo-diesel is now the only engine option,
with the more powerful, but thirstier, V6 petrol
deleted from the range in November 2017 due
to a lack of customer demand. It uses 7.9
liters/100km with the manual gearbox, and
only marginally more with the automatic. In
real-world driving expect to use about 10.5
liters/100km with either gearbox.
Toyota 4runner N12million
It fits the mold of the modern mid-size SUV in
size (two rows of seats), horsepower (270), and
cargo volume (above average for its class), but
from behind the wheel, it’s nothing like the
mainstream family haulers. This body-on-
frame off-roader features control feels that’s
better suited to rock-crawling than mall-
crawling. But if the gravel roads of your
adventures lead to rocks, ruts, or mud, then the
4Runner is your winch line to a better life.
The 4Runner’s 4.0-liter V-6 engine and five-
speed automatic transmission can team with
rear-, four-, or all-wheel drive. Entry-level SR5
models are rear-wheel drive, while all other
trims except the tip pity-top Limited model
come with selectable, part-time four-wheel
drive.
2012 Toyota Camry N9.8million
When you see this car you see class, Kanayo
uses this car for important meetings and drives
it to his office. The 2012 Toyota Camry has a
great reliability rating, comfortable ride, and
roomy interior contribute to its high position in
our midsize car rankings. With its stable
handling and accurate steering, the front-
wheel-drive 2012 Toyota Camry is a great
midsize sedan for shoppers interested in a
comfortable daily driver. The Camry comes
standard with a respectable 178-horsepower
four-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic
transmission. Some models take things up a
notch with a stronger 268-horsepower V6
engine, which comes with the same
transmission.
Kanayo O. Kanayo House
The Veteran Nollywood actor has a multi-
million naira house in his hometown in Aboh-
Mbaise, Imo State. His mansion of which he did
a proper opening ceremony when it was
completed, family friends came to rejoice.
Conclusion

performing rituals in movies, has paid his dues
in the Nigerian entertainment industry and he
is one of the pioneers of Nollywood, he solely
deserve everything own today.
