The SLR might not be the most breath-taking car in the world, but if you were to drop $3.7 million into one, you would expect it to come out looking a tad better. This red and gold monstrosity is the work of Ueli Anlicker of Winznau, Switzerland. Anlicker is well known for his customized red-and-gold vehicles and electronics including motorcycles, Ferrari cars, laptops, a Playstation 3 and more. He even owns a museum devoted to his…ahh…works.
This eyesore is described by Anlicker as the “absolute highlight” of his career. So what did he spend the $4.3 million on? The car, of course, the custom body work, approximately 500 rubies, and gold plating from the wheels to the steering wheel; we can only imagine how much weight, including unsprung weight, this has added to the car.
