This story is about Michael Arndt, the man of matchsticks. Over the course of six years, using 956,000 matchsticks, 1686 tubes of glue, and at least three different varieties of mustache, he built a full-scale replica of a McLaren 4/14 F1 car, at a cost of around 6000 Euros ($8,725). The giant model takes up Arndt’s entire kitchen and probably his social life. It can be broken down into 45 parts for easy transport to various matchstick-builders conventions.

This puppy is covered with 24k gold. Not many could do this to their cars.  I have seen cell phone that are gold plated, but this ride is truly a sign of wealth. 
Who drive in solid gold covered Porsche cars? More than 40 pounds of the pure gold was used while decorating this particular car.
