First Arab Supercar Costs $3.4 Million, Has Diamond-Encrusted Headlights

cartechboy writes "If you're looking for bling, you can always count on Dubai. At the Dubai Motor Show this week, Lebanon-based W Motors unveiled what is billed as the world's first Arab-built super car. The Lykan Hypersport incorporates jewels and precious metals in its construction, suicide-style doors, and an interactive holographic display system. (Yes, drivers will be able to adjust radio volume via a holograph.) The 750 horsepower car accelerates to 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds and has a top speed of 245 mph. The cost: $3.4 million, but owners will also receive a Cyrus Klepcys watch, said to be valued at around $200,000. W Motors plans a whopping 7 units for production."

    You answered your own question. They go to the US to enjoy being feted by US aristocracy. Letting someone lick your nuts doesn't mean you "love and respect" them, often it means only that you know you have absolute power over them. And having power over the powerful, watching them degrade themselves to please you, must be a heady experience.
