    I think I will buy four new F458s in different configurations instead of having just one F458 with aftermarket parts.

    Or maybe I will try to get a LaFerrari someone is going to flip.

    I saw this a few days ago, $1M on wheels?? Not even Bugatti wheels cost as much.

    I wouldn't mind paying $1 mill for the wheels, but I refuse to put up the $500 deposit :)

    I thought it was a misprint when I read it. Are they serious?

    wooooo tough crowd in here! This is obviously a publicity stunt that worked excellently. The ad has garnered 5000+ views for relatively no cost. Not to mention people who are not well versed in the aftermarket scene will now believe vossen makes the best parts available ever.

    Personally I got a laugh out of it.

    Nice joke, make sense too.

    It said their wheels worth $1M, that car does worth somewhat in the neighborhood of $290k..........

    The reason they do it like that is when people click " highest first" to filter out their search this comes up. Old ebay trick, and yes it works.

    For $1M they should find a better backdrop to photograph the car, especially since they appear to be in florida.

    No guys, you can’t see. It has to be a disguised LaFerrari who went very wrong.

    I approve now. When they first listed it on their website it was for $500k. I'm glad they update their site.

    $1M wheels?
    Hmmmmm.....
    The description area of the ad states the wheels AND tires are $8500.

    Apparently some tiny bit of fishiness afoot.
