The Diamond Mercedes…
…That should convince you not to buy foreign oil products. We have these exclusive photos of Prince Alwaleed’s (from Saudi Arabia) Diamond Covered Mercedes. The car rings in at around $4.8 million dollars, and apparently, costs you $1,ooo just to touch. Instead of “BEEP! BEEP!” The horn sends out a “BLING! BLING!” (okay I totally made that last part up but think that would be cool). More pics below…

wtf. i <3 rich fools.
2 please!
Just what everyone needs: a car that will literally tear up anything on the road that touches it, be it bumps on the road or dings against the door. Almost has a James Bond concept going for it.
I’ll pass though; rhinestone anything just scream something in me that makes me feel like someone was playing with the Barbie sparkle paint again.
Holy Crap!!!!!!!!!!
I second that holy crap!!!!!!! What could scream “I’m filthy rich from oil money” more than this? Does the car come with its own driver wearing brass knuckles?
$1000 to touch it??? What about the car washers, detailers and mechanics? Do they have to pay him to work on it? An interesting conundrum?
Hyphenate: brass knucks would suggest lesser refinement. It would not surprise me if the chauffeur dons their own pair of diamond-tipped platinum knuckles.

what’s funnier, is that we are still paying that S.O.B to afford this kinda stuff while people are dying of hunger world wide ! You’ve all paid for this car, remember this car when gas hits $10 / gallon.
i just want to say I’M IN LOVE! no really. how much more could oil be if the only thing left to do with the money is encrust an alreay expensive car with clear and black diamonds? just wondering… however, i won’t lie or deny the fact that it is breath taking.
As much fun as it is to scorn fictional Saudi princes for their filthy exuberance, as with most similar stories, this one is completely fabricated. Read the Snopes article linked by anarki13.
Our energy dependence on foreign nations is pretty pathetic, but don’t blame anyone but yourself as you get into your gas guzzler each day. I know it’s easier to complain than to actually do something, but when does it end?
Sam, ever tried doing something about hunger other than complaining about other people not doing anything about hunger?
