Gold Bugatti Veyron at Gumball Rally blows us away
The Bugatti Veyron has earned itself a name in car history as an undisputed classic, and these days special editions of the supercar are coming out like rabbits popping out of bunnies. Lately, we spotted aVeyron in gold owned by someone in Kuwait, and now we have yet another gold version of the car, which is taking part in the Gumball Rally 2009. Pictured above is a gold Bugatti Veyron before Gumball stickers were put on it. The 11th Annual Gumball 3000 Rally (May 1-8, 2009) features a coast to coast road trip of 3000 miles, from Los Angeles to Miami. This Veyron has been wrapped by British decal specialists Raccoon.

Bugatti Veyron goes for the gold
No matter how much equipment is shoehorned into a cabin, or how much power an engine offers, there is always room for more. Bugatti has always earned appreciation for its limited edition, tuned Veyrons. We have seen the magnificent Bugatti Veyron Pur Sang, Bleu Centenaire and lately, the Linea Vincero. This time, it’s a gold version owned by someone in Kuwait and it’s as enticing as the other limited editions. The Gold Bugatti Veyron gets its juice from the 8.0 W16 64 V engine with four turbochargers. The best part is that it’s not just garage-only as it has been spotted on roads in Kuwait by media and the public. Superior in every sense, the Bugatti Veyron supercar is an undisputed classic and we’d love to see more and more experiments with the car. Tuesday, March 24, 2009
The $1 million gold-plated Samand LX sedan
Pimping the vehicles with gold, diamond and other precious stones does help to flaunt your riches on the road. We have seen so many bling-bling vehicles earlier, including the Swarovski-studded bikes, gold plated Porsches and the diamond-studded Mercedes coupe. The latest to catch our attention is a gold plated Samand LX sedan from Iran. The $1 million car has raised eyebrows in the city of Tehran, when its owners had to drive it through the streets after an accident. The car was to be delivered to some Russian buyer, but the whole thing went wrong when the truck carrying this golden beauty collided with a pickup. The gold-plated sedan is the creation of two goldsmiths from Isfahan, who got the inspiration after seeing images of a gold-plated Porsche on TV and on the Internet. Friday, February 20, 2009

Rolls Royce Phantom with gold glamour
Giving the Midas touch to high-priced cars is an entirely different domain, and affluent people who like to pimp their luxury sedans with gold and gem stones keep hitting the headlines. Helping him show his opulence on the roads, another car collector from the UK has done a paint job to his Rolls Royce Phantom by covering its outer surface with a gold-plated sheet. The four lucky wheels also receive a little Midas touch. The gold-plated Rolls Royce spotted somewhere on the UK roads is said to be the only eternal piece of art in the world that would certainly be a valuable addition to the bling-bling vehicles top list. However, there isn’t any factual information about how much money was spent on the car to give it a classy appeal. What we know is it adds an immeasurable value to the owner’s garage.
