The thing with that is... I'd want to drive it, to show it off. But I'd be afraid that people would try to pull the diamonds off and hawk 'em.

If you can afford a 4 million dollar car, you can afford a full security detail for the car.

The saudi shieks have an obscene amount of money, (most of it ours) why wouldn't they do obscene things with it?

Gawd forbid they should actually use it to improve the lives of the Saudi citizens...

Wealth without work will destroy you.

If I have that much money, I would slap a bunch of hot naked virgins on the hood and trunk of my '63 Chevrolet Impala SS drop-top.

Ps. Maybe on the sides too.

That is very obscene, but I like Baked's idea.

Sadly he's riding around in a car that represents a small fraction of money probably made off oil. Yep, you helped him pay for it. Now you can feel better.

The Prince's activities as an investor came to prominence when he bought a substantial tranche of shares in Citicorp in the 1990s when that firm was in difficulties. With an initial investment of $550 million to bail out Citibank caused by underperforming American real estate loans and Latin American businesses, his holdings in Citigroup now comprise half of his wealth worth US$10 billion.[2] He has also made large investments in AOL, Apple Inc., Worldcom, Motorola, News Corporation Ltd and other technology and media companies.

He also runs the biggest record label in the Middle East. His money didn't (exactly) pop out of the ground, he's a bit of a savvy businessman. Granted, his car still looks like shit.
