The members of One Direction are reportedly worth a total of $15 million each, which might explain why the youngest member of the group was able to purchase two brand new Porsche vehicles to celebrate his birthday.

For his 19th birthday, Harry Styles decided to buy a brand-new Porsche Cayman S shortly after taking the vehicle for a test ride and falling in love. The One Direction member was also feeling generous as he purchased a Porsche Carrera as a present for his "brilliant" father according to The Daily Star.

Styles' vehicle is being customized to include a six speaker Bose surround sound, heated seats, and an installed telephone according to the inside report.

"Harry is besotted by cars and loves the Porsche brand after test driving a few," said an insider to The Daily Star. "He has brought a £100,000 Carrera from a car dealer near his dad's home in Sale, Manchester."

The 2014 Cayman S is equipped with a 3.4-liter, flat-six engine that delivers 325 horsepower according to Porsche. The vehicle can go 0 to 60 in just 4.7 seconds with a top speed of 175 mph.

What makes the car Styles chose so special is the mid-mounted flat six engine, which is located no more than 12 inches behind the driver of the vehicle according to Porsche. This makes the new Cayman one of the most balanced sports cars ever produced as a large amount of the vehicle's weight is near the center.

Styles has certainly started quite a collection for himself, as it was just a year ago the singer purchased a Range Rover Sport and an Audi R8.

His father doesn't want people thinking he's mooching off his son however, as he's confirmed to The Daily Star he has never asked his son for money. He did say he wouldn't mind if a vehicle just appeared in his driveway however.

"I wouldn't take money from Harry," said Des Styles to The Daily Star. "But I'm sure one day I'll come home and there's a Mercedes on the drive or something, quite possibly and that would be lovely."
