When it comes to objects of automotive lust, few tip the scales further than the Lamborghini Aventador. Naturally, most mere mortals (like us) can't come up with nearly enough expendable income to ever fulfill the dream of owning an actual, drivable toy like that.

If we can't afford the real thing, at least we can get ourselves a smaller scale model, right? Well, maybe... unless the 1:8 scale Aventador you've got your eye on comes with seats, headlights and steering wheel made from diamonds, wheels fashioned from gold and platinum and a perfectly scaled copy of the body crafted from carbon fiber.

Just how much would such a fancy bauble cost? We hope you're sitting down: at least $4.7 million. Yes, in dollars. Auction house Sotheby's plans to sell the wee Lambo to the highest bidder in December with the lofty starting price just quoted, but if you just can't wait to get your hands on it, you can buy it from Robert Gülpen, the modeler, for a cool $6 mil.

Or, you could buy a dozen actual Aventadors for that price, which may be far more satisfying.

Thats just f****** stupid.

Whoever buys that ought to be shot. Buy a real Aventador and give the rest to starving children in Africa if you feel the need to spend 6 mil.

the worst part is that some one is going to buy it.

This thing holds three guineas book of records titles.
1. Most expensive model car
2. Most expensive Lamborghini logo
3. Most expensive showcase

I can't wait to know which dumb ass will pay this much for a toy

I personally hope whoever buys it, sets it on fire right then and there after buying it, and then sets fire to a massive pile of tires while dumping 3 freight trucks of food and medicine into the ocean.

Dear god how awesome would that guy be?

Tinie Tempah has to be in the running...

He's the jerk that bought a pair of those gay ass Nikes for $37,000.

The back to the future ones? Those are the gayest pair of shoes I have ever seen. There is only two things in that movie I want. A Delorean and a hoverboard :cool:

Yes, the BTTF ones. He's the world's biggest dipshit for making such a moronic purchase.

The BTTF shoes are a collectable piece of American history. I say it's a good investment.

This tacky model car, however...

it might have a tacky interior... but that is one hell of a body.. what a modeling job... the detail is ridiculous.

The detail is ridiculous on a violin, too, but you can get a nice one of those for under 2,000 dollars, and it's hand made all the same.

This is absurd. There isn't another word for it.

does it drive?

if not...does it blend?

Tec... Not that I am knocking violin making by any means... but Laying carbon fiber in that scale is a tad harder that laying carbon fiber or wood working a violin...

I am not condoning its price.... at all... I just said it has one hell of a body modeling job.

you all realize the cost is from the diamonds, platinum and gold... not thr quality of the cf weave..

yes... hence the tacky interior part

What I don't get is, if they are gonna do this to a car, why use a brand new car?

Seriously follow me on this one.

This eventader is the newest Lambo, but there's nothing super amazing about it. It's not a limited edition anything, it's not pioneering anything, it's just new. So some a-hole is gonna pay MILLIONS for a diamond encrusted model of a car that is going to eventually be replaced.

Can you imagine having a diamond and platinum Ferrari 348?

other than the poor choice of a car....

this falls into the same category as

Atleast the mini ventador comes with a lambo badge. This one is ^^^ is missing a glass slipper and some rodents

Your'e about a month too late on that joke.

i lol'd quite hard.

*snip picture*

^you must want a pat on the back?

edit; sorry that was mean :p

WTF! $4.7 million for a 1/8 scale toy?

I wouldn't even pay that much for a house!

$4.7 million for something that is just going to sit on the shelf and not going to be looked at 90% of the time is ridiculous.

Why can't these people donate it to charity or something?

Charity is stupid. This has diamonds on the seats.

stop being a damn socialist dude....


if you have 4.7 mill to spend on a damn toy car... it means you probably worked your ass off somewhere, or conned the hell out of someone...but either way you worked for that cash... you should buy whatever you want to buy....

donating is good... but screw charity sometimes.

Start by not having kids... and maybe everyone could start making more money...

next time i see a couple with more than 2 kids, I'm just going to slap a b1tch.

......I want 3 kids... :(

Having more than 2 is irresponsible. There are too many damn people on this planet as is. If every couple only had two kids then the world could stablize and we could TRY and deal with the massive number we have now.

Having more than 2 kids is irresponsible...

but buying a rusted piece of metal and plungin money into something that will never go on to reciprocate it's consumption back into society by means of work and consumerism..is not..

My car is not only helping the economy by causing me to spend money on things, it's not taking up any food, classroom space, living space, or anyone elses job.

......I want 3 kids... :(

I don't want kids, care to take my share then?

My thoughts exactly........EOS is the 1%


I was raised an only child....Being an only child sucks ballz it does....

all the relationships i have with my cousins and friends are the "closest bonds" i have with people of my age group, so i REALLY have no understanding of the bonds between siblings..

I have 3 sisters yes, but it took 26 years to actually meet them so that's hardly a brother sister relationship..

Now i know you're saying "just have 2 kids" but then you have to deal in the checks and balances system of the household/family unit..

with only 2 kids there will be a alpha and a subordinate.....With 3 kids there will be a constant adjustment of the side choosing making sure one doesn't become the perceived favorite, because we all know the 2 siblings would fight and the "mom and dad love me more" argument would come out..


So while 2 kids makes more sense to some from a "global economy" pov..

from a family unit, human interpersonal relationship and sociological order pov...3 makes more sense...


But if you guys want to have 2 kids and have the youngest be a boy who turns out to like blowin peters because he was the runt go for it....It worked for C.a.r.


ZING

My thoughts exactly........EOS is the 1%

Honestly kids could be nice but what I want to do for a living won't allow me to be a parent at the level I want, so out of respect for the child I'm withholding as I don't feel like I could properly raise a child and be a good father. It's as simple as that.

People should have cats... hella cats.

domestic cats suck ass... gayest animal ever.


People should have a max of 2 kids.. and if people would stick to this rule some would be allowed 3 and we would still be ok...

but no... you have some mofos popping 5-10 kids.... and to make matters worse... there is a study showing.. the grand majority of educated and intelligent people are not having kids or have less kids... and vice versa... basically we are becoming a more retarded society...

just like:

I was the youngest of 2 kids and I'm better than all you assholes and pretty much everyone else too.

Unfortunately for every person like Eos, you've got one of these assholes
