Cars that Go Beyond Luxury

Cars are a big investment, even if you are only buying a subcompact. But chances are you are grateful for your purchase. As long as it can transport you from place to place, you are quite satisfied, just as any person who is earning an average income. However, those who belong to the wealthier section of society can opt to buy luxury cars. These beautiful, much-desired vehicles have the best features and the most splendid accessories, decorations, and furnishings.

If someone is lucky enough to have an ultra-luxury limousine, say a Maybach 62 that costs 400,000 US dollars, this person would be really happy. But, for some people, even a high-end automobile is not enough! Yes, there are instances when incredibly rich individuals go beyond the extreme to pimp up their already expensive cars.

Take, for example, the Hollywood socialite Paris Hilton. Not only does she love the colour pink, she also desires extravagance. Recently, she ordered as a Christmas gift for herself an incredibly beautiful but expensive 400,000 US dollar dashboard for her pink Bentley Continental GT. What makes this dashboard so pricey is that it is encrusted with diamonds! She has ordered the extremely expensive contraption straight from Britain. This is in addition to the many classy and customised details found in the vehicle such as pink upholstery and embedded initials.

But Ms. Hilton's car is nothing compared to Saudi Arabia's Prince al Waleed bin Abdul-Aziz's car. His 38th car started out as a high-end Mercedes SL600. Then, he had the entire car encrusted with diamonds. The sparkling 4.8 million dollar car with mink upholstery covers was unveiled in an auto show in Dubai in celebration of the car model's 50th anniversary. Now that is truly expensive!
