Everyone loves Ferrari. In fact, anyone will dare to ride and drive even the oldest Ferrari because that would be a collectors’ item. That sets the difference. No one will want to do the same if it is ‘just another marquee’. What more if what you are going to ride is a prototype of this newest car from Ferrari?? What if one of the very few of this when the model gets released? Cool, wouldn’t you say?

Have you, even in your dreams, wished to ride and drive a gold car? Mercedes Benz has just realized your dreams!– for a value of US $9 Million! Now, are you still interested? I bet you are not.. For your information, this bumper to bumper gold Mercedes is now exported to Dubai. That is definitely where it will land, to where the gold is just another piece in the walls of their hotels!

Indulge in the gallery of this all-new, all-gold Mercedes Benz:

Abu Dhabi has seen the most opulent cars in this world. Why if the city has the world’s richest man or woman or family? They say money is in oil so that should explain this. Freshly registered in their roster is the white gold Mercedes Benz with the owner name’s withdrawn for security purposes. None of the same materials or configuration has been seen or at least registered in another location or country to date.

Who says changing the color of your vehicle needs lots of time and dime? In Dubai, it only takes an hour or two! Can’t believe it? Well,  I hope you don’t so my gallery can do its magic. I have actually post a good number of pictures showing the step-by-step color change of a race care–done in an hour or so!

Why let your money pile up in the back and cause insecurities if you can spend it on a Flying Spur—and level-up your security? Bentley’s armored and weighty car is still as handsome and powerful as ever, even with its half a mil price!

Inside and out, sporting 552 hp-able powerhouse, this Bentley is the perfect match to the everyday James Bond. No one is going to suspect it has ballistic steel in the doors, pillars, overlaps and sides. Cool and clear, it got bulletproof glass and car run on flat tires. It is also equipped with an explosion-proof gas tank, kevlar flooring, and an option to add self-contained oxygen supply system in case of poison gas attack is available.

Indulge and play war!

It seems, US President Barak Obama got the better of the Cadillac One. Dubbed as the Beast, the vehicle is thought of as something that came out of a James Bond movie. What is more interesting is that its specification is never to be revealed, at least not publicly. This is better explained in BBC’s news feature:

The Secret Service said the 2009 limo would provide it with a “valuable asset” in providing its occupant with the highest level of protection.
As expected, they are not giving too much away about the car, but Nicholas Trotta, their Assistant Director for the Office of Protective Operations is quoted in their news release:
“Although many of the vehicle’s security enhancements cannot be discussed, it is safe to say that this car’s security and coded communications systems make it the most technologically advanced protection vehicle in the world.”
Observers say the car is likely to include bullet proof glass, an armoured body, a separate oxygen supply, and a completely sealed interior to protect against a chemical attack.

One of the specifications is that we don’t talk about the specifications
–David Caldwell
General Motors

Some joke the car is so tough it could withstand a rocket-propelled grenade. Its tyres are said to work flat, so the vehicle will keep going even if shot at.
While the car’s interior is a closely guarded secret, there is no doubt “The Beast” has been kitted out with the best and most up-to-date equipment.
David Caldwell, a spokesman for General Motors which makes Cadillac, told the BBC that the car is made to specifications that the company is given by the federal government.
“One of the specifications is that we don’t talk about the specifications,” he said.
But Mr Caldwell did reveal that the car has been made in keeping with the design of a contemporary Cadillac, and would include a hand-crafted interior.
When asked if it included such extras as an iPod dock, he said he could not comment specifically, but added that the limo would have “state of the art electronics”.
