If you think the stylish and glamorous Mercedes Benz SL550 is still not enough to grab everyone’s attention, then a diamond covered SL550 will most definitely do. Or rather, overdo. This one was unveiled at an auto show in oil-rich Dubai, most probably to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the legendary Mercedes Benz SL550. There’s no info if the diamonds are genuine or fake, but real or not, this car’s price tag is certainly written in figures that only people the likes of the Sultan of Brunei or Paris Hilton can comprehend.

It’s rumored that the car is the 38th car owned by a Saudi Arabian “Prince Waleed”. Apparently, his car is brighter than he is.

Yea, its a bad ass car.. This car is nothing compared to his other collections! He basically owns alot of things you see on TV, such has like 10 % of foxnews, and like 60 % of Citigroup! I have met and worked with about 10 prince’s and there no jokes! They are the nicest ever as well! And no your gas money does not go there! And he is a very bright guy believe me

its a very ugly looking car. even the heart of the person who owns it! there are people in the world who are dying, hungry, who are poor and just half of the diamond on the car would probably help five families for a long time. VERY SAD!

i am disgusted at the waste of money these so called princes throw away…
i know it sounds so cliche and we’ve all heard it before… but honestly, ppl are dying out there, and this guy decides to pimp his ride with diamonds? thats jsut ridiculous…
it goes to show, u can buy almost anything with money, but u can’t buy class. so unsophisticated!!

Hey if this prince guy is very rich then obviously he does think about the poor ppl too and probably does give charity. ‘Charity’ is something you silently give out and not scream out to ppl and say ‘im the best cus i give charity’ ppl chill out yeh every1 has to rite to live on their own terms. Ask urslf do u save atleast £5 for the poor or do u just drain in alcohol, clubbing, smoking or even drugs!! Jealous & Sad ppl damnn….!
