Blinged-out Mclaren Being Sold for 11 Million!

No word on whether the "models" come with the 11 million dollar asking price, but it still doesn't seem worth it...

a car that gets very poor gas mileage.
The gold should have been used to line the engine bay, which will certainly be needed on a 1,000HP motor...the rest of the money on a good psychiatrist and some meds.

if the models are included in the price does that make it worth it?

How do you spend all that money on gold and not cough up for a few decent models.

And THAT thing is hideous.

Wow! Imagine the hours of work and dedication that it would take to save this poor car and return it to its original condition. Would probably be easier to just burn the damn thing.

This is definitely in the top 10 (possibly 3) UGLIEST vehicles I have ever seen. You couldn't give it to me; maybe you could if I figured out how quickly I could get rid of it and NEVER be seen anywhere near this monstrosity

And to answer the question "what is wrong with this picture?" Everything!
