    If you buy this you actually have too much money. I'm sure some Russian will buy it.

    I have 6 versions of the Veyron in 2 foot long 1/8 scale for a tiny fraction of this - around $5K - if anyone feels like treating themselves...

    Now that I know there is a solid gold model, I just don't think anything else will do it for me... ;)

    You said exactly what I was thinking!
    Like I get the prestige behind this car, but the collaboration of gold and diamonds isn't my thing...I'd rather have a few AA's and the real deal!

    I can't get over how stupid this is. If it did cost 30.000 $, OKAY, you're stupid but it's your money so spend'em if you want to. But this is 3.000.000 dollars. 3 freakin' million: That buys you a freaking mansion most places in this world.

    This is unreal. Just unreal.


    Btw. I'm making a toothbrush in gold and diamonds. Anyone wanna brush their teeth with one million dollars? PM me.

    Well, I have finally found something spending my hard earned money on. So I have cashed in everything I own, and financed this beauty at 22%. It's the best investment I have ever made and I KNOW this will go up in value. So who wants to come over and push it around on my coffee table?
