    as a person from the Middle East myself, i must say that the overflowing in both oil & money in the gulf region, especially in Saudi Arabia, UAE, & Qatar; make people there do whatever they want to their cars!


    we ordinary folks just want a super car at any price to cherish in a secret vault, but they don't, they do what they want with it, & even more... personal freedom to way beyond its limits, & you can't blame them for that!

    @graverobber: Philip Landrigan Edition: Recessions just mean that you can get shit like this done for cheaper. As a result, for the same price he was able to have the seats gold-plated as well.

    So, I guess this what you kids call "Bling" nowadays? Well, I don't quite 'get it,' but it's pretty snappy, for sure. I must admit, I remember putting my mother in quite a dither with my DA back in the '50s, so I guess I can understand your need to express your identity through generationally unique fashions. So, I suppose, in a way, I do think it's pretty 'bitchin'', if I've used that term correctly...

    In a fit of rage, Hamib slams the grocery cart repeatedly into the Mercedes. When asked later why he did it, Hamib replies, "I make $2 a week. I dream of owning a car that nice. And then I see one, and some douchebag sheik has desecrated it with gold-tinted chrome. So I ask myself, what would Mohamed do?"

    I get sick when I see what they do to cars in Dubai.


    Because I want to do it so badly.


    No matter how bad it really looks.

    @jbownsabmw but still wants GM to survive: Rock used to be cool... then he changed his status from "Single" to "In a relationship", and it's been all downill from there.


    There was once a time when Kyle Thrustmaxer would file reports with Stud Beefpile and Thad Longlove... I think the other two have been killed in the line of duty.


    Still, he does have good taste in his "In a relationship" choices.

    I love it, but the rims suck, and the windows should be tinted black. When a car is this "Liberace," should I quibble over minor details?
