Football superstar David Beckham has been spotted in Los Angeles showcasing his new ride – a blacked-out Porsche 911 Turbo.

But Beckham’s new ride is no ordinary Porsche 911 – the black Porker sports custom ‘deep-dish’ alloy wheels, blacked-out headlights and a colour-coded bodykit.

The former Manchester United and Real Madrid star – who is married to “Posh Spice” Victoria Beckham – has owned some of the world’s most lusted-after dream machines.
