Talking SL600 Diamond Mercedes

Wow is all I can say...check this out, Its covered in diamonds top to bottom including rims. Its Prince Waleed of Saudi Arabia, its his 38th car. At 5$ a gallon this is what gas will buy you if you have connections!

just want to know is M105 to aggressive? What about Wheel Bright, to harsh for this one?

Re: SL600 Diamond Mercedes

Re: SL600 Diamond Mercedes

I wonder how many people consider running up and grabbing a diamond or two...

Amen to that. It looks completely rediculous.

Like the old saying goes, money doesn't buy brains.

Re: SL600 Diamond Mercedes

Re: SL600 Diamond Mercedes

That's why there is no auto-detailing industry in Saudi....if a car gets swirled or scratched, they buy another one. Typical of the Saudi royal family - thumb your nose at everyone as you tighten up the oil supply.
