A Gold Vinyl Ferrari 458 Spider

  Ferrari Rocher: Undefeated Kickboxing World Champion Covers £200,000 Supercar With Garish Layer Of Gold Vinyl -- Daily Mail 

 * The Ferrari 458 Spider belongs to kickboxer Riyadh Al-Azzawi
 * It reportedly cost £4,000 to cover the car with gold vinyl
 * It was snapped while the fighter was training at a nearby gym

Supercars are always something of a status symbol and Ferraris come pretty high up even that lofty hierarchy.

However, for kickboxing world champion Riyadh Al-Azzawi just buying one of the flashest cars on the market isn't enough.

The Iraqi fighter went even further, wrapping his £200,000 458 Spider with gold vinyl - for the comparably reasonable price tag of £4,000.

My Comment: I prefer the colour fire-engine red .... but this colour is not bad.

The 20 Most Expensive Cars In The World

Maybach Exelero 

  The 20 Most Expensive Cars In The World -- The Richest 

Interestingly enough, a list of this magnitude makes cars like Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche appear quite reasonably priced, for the richest of the rich that is. Many of the speedy, goosebump-inducing, high-performance vehicles listed here are made in limited quantities and are sure to pack a punch. Some of these car manufacturers are unheard of, but those driving them can definitely afford to consider looking into other modes of transportation, you know, such as jet planes or yachts — no big deal.

My Comment: The Maybach Exelero is the most expensive .... at $8 million. Wow .... a car that is worth $8 million .... what a strange world that we live in.

  The Parking Lot At The American University In Dubai Is Full Of Amazing Cars [PHOTOS] -- Business Insider 

Dubai's police force is known for having a stable of amazing vehicles, and it turns out the city's students aren't doing too badly, either.

Meeka Nasser is a student at the American University of Dubai, and took these photos of the amazing cars that fill the school's parking lot.

He wrote: Because Cayennes and Range Rovers are a dime a dozen here, I only included a few of them in the album.

Keep in mind, almost all of the students are between 18 and 24 years old, as the graduate program is pretty tiny here. The students that drive the insanely expensive cars (Rolls Royces and Bentleys etc.) are usually local (Emirati) for those wondering.

My Comment: So much for the image of the poor university student.
