Unhappy The Sultan of Shame...

Imagine seeing hundreds of high-end Ferraris, Lamborghinis and McLarens, many with hardly any miles on the odometer rotting away in tropical heat and humidity.

Really Interesting/Devastating article for Car Enthusiasts:

Enjoy,

I'll start the bidding at $100 for the whole lot because I have my own $14.8 billion to squander

(I wish, I wouldn't be able to think of enough cool **** to blow even 1% of that much money on.)

Its only a waste if you are poor.. when you control trillions of dollars, its just a drop in the bucket. The truly rich are different afterall

No its a waste no matter how much money one has. The monetary loss just matters less to the truly wealthy.

no, no waste.. perhaps the sultans friend abhorred these gas guzzlers so much he simple desired to take them out of circulation

If anything, it's a waste in metal. Those cars have no value, other than what people place on them. I'm not going to cry over some neglected lumps of steel halfway across the world, regardless of what they're "worth".
