$2.93 Million Bugatti Veyron Toy Costs More Than Real Car



.93 Million Bugatti Veyron Toy Costs More  Than Real Car

This is a solid-gold, diamond-accented, 1/18th-scale Bugatti Veyron built by Robert Gulpen and Stuart Hughes. It costs $2.93 million. An actual Veyron costs around $1.7 million. This is the dumbest product in the history of consumerism.

The gold and diamond Bugatti Veyron toy is meant to demonstrate the extremes of luxury craftsmanship and, at $2.93 million, the extremes of crazy luxury pricing. If you check out the toy car's website, you'll find this detached-from-reality (and unnecessarily capitalized) description:

.93 Million Bugatti Veyron Toy Costs More  Than Real CarWell, with only three made we figured we'd be fools not to buy one. Good thing the website is so convenient we can just buy online. Wonder how Wert's going to feel about that $2.93 million line item on this month's expense report...
