How do they not expect people to be smashing the window every time the car is parked?

And you thought $150 for floor mats was a bit rich. British brand Bentley has unveiled the world’s most expensive car accessory: a built-in Breitling clock for the dashboard.

At almost $215,000 dollars — on top of the car’s $320,000 price tag — it’s enough to buy a brand-new Porsche, with some change. There is already a digital clock in the car’s instrument display, Bentley claims Breitling can only build four of these particular in-car clocks each year, and two are already sold. The clock is made of gold and uses diamonds for the index.

I'd venture to guess that the persons with a 320K vehicle aren't parking in the same areas as the plebeians.

Why would your driver not be in the car anyway?

Same reason I passed on it. I'm a baller, but I'm a practical baller. I'd rather have the AC vent and put the savings towards my Patek Phillippe instead.

I am guessing reading comprehension was what he fricked up on, not math.

I've seen at least 3 different RR Wraiths parked either on the street or a surface lot in the CBD.


Some guy who owns some van company or something like that parks his Wraith (starts at 304k) next to his BMW i8 (starts at 141k) on the surface lot at Canal and Tchoup. The lot isn't even fully paved.

At times, Curren$y has parked his Wraith on the street in front of his building at the corner of Camp and Canal, along with his Ferrari and Murcielago.

Also saw a white Wraith parked in front of the courtyard marriot on St. Charles. It was there on the street for at least 24 hours.
