sorry if this is a repost
This is what Oil Dollars get you!! Decorated with US$480 million of diamonds. It belongs to one of the top 10 richest men in the world - Kush Al Fayed. not sure if it would see much road NOT sure why the rims are different here, the shiny ones definately look the best on the car |

Imagine the cops - "sir, I'm going have to defect your car for being too distractive to other drivers".

If it weren't for people like this, there wouldn't be any poverty. Edit: I'd like to ask, who watched "Blood Diamond"? You'd never know to what extent people would go to get diamonds... and in the end, they end up on car. Where spraying the bloody thing with glitter would've done the job.

the picture with different rims looks like a different place.
and. what the hell. why do that to a car. would be funny seeing it left out over night. come back in the morning and someone has come along with a flat head screw driver and scored a few million in diamonds. |

Its the same place guys, look at the floor, the ropes....etc
hes just got a different set of rims on both sides of the cars. I've seen many cars do this at car shows.. its their way of showing off differnet styles i guess. He's rich he can do whatever he wants (apparently) hehehe
