W.W.J.D. (What Would Jay-Z Drive?)

Since Maybach got the axe last month, there has been a hole 6.2 meters long in the hearts of rappers and ball players everywhere. Florida rapper Rick Ross, whose label name is Maybach Music, may even have to find another marque to follow.

Shawn Carter, aka Jay-Z, who recorded several songs singing the praises of Maybach, will have to find a new ride in which to be chauffeured. And last year Sean “Diddy” Combs bought a $360,000 version for his 16-year-old son--which, in retrospect, seems like a smart buy with it now being an orphan brand.

With that in mind, check out our gallery of the top 10 rides with the potential to replace the exclusive Mercedes-Benz-turned-limo.

Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe

The Phantom starred in several Diddy videos, plus it's been mentioned by everyone from elder statesman Russell Simmons to up-and-comers like Drake and Lil Wayne. The Rolls-Royce, known as the double R, has a 453-hp V12 and space for a humidor or cooler for champagne.

Base Price: $439,000

Cachet: $$$$$

Odds of it starring in a video: 3:1

Bentley Mulsanne

Even though the Mulsanne was made for crossing the English countryside and skirting the city limits of London, it would look right at home cruising the Pacific Coast Highway or bumbling up the Hollywood hills. The twin-turbo V8 pumps out 505 hp, plenty to evade hordes of groupies.

Base Price: $285,000

Cachet: $$$$$

Odds of starring in video: 5:1

Porsche Panamera Turbo

The Porsche Panamera doesn't play in the same range as the Bentley and Rolls, but it already has a spot in sports stars' and hip-hoppers' hearts. Ross used it in a video and Chicagoan Kanye West crashed one in Hawaii last year. The turbocharged V8 delivers 500 hp with a simple stab of the loud pedal.

Base Price: $136,700

Cachet: $$$$

Odds of starring in video: 2:1

Bugatti Veyron

The Veyron's price moves it out of range for all but the biggest of B.I.G.s. Diddy's got one, Beyonc
