How to turn a 10K car into a 4.6 million dollar car

If you have been driving over the past 4 or 5 years, then you have probably noticed that cars seem to be getting smaller and smaller.  I remember the first time that I saw a Smart Car drive by me on the highway thinking, “Wow, that’s a fast golf cart!” These super-compact cars have been seen on the roads of Europe and India for years, but they are becoming more and more popular in the U.S. The reasons seem simple enough, they provide good gas mileage and are also very easy on the pocket book.  Well, one family has turned an Indian super-compact to anything but a penny saver.

The Tata family owns stores that deals with gold, so as a nod to their normal business venture they bought a Nano, which is an Indian car that would run for less than $7,000 if it were sold in the United States.  That would be a great thrifty buy for someone who has billions of dollars.  Of course, they couldn’t stop there.  The covered the car in more than 175 pounds of 22 carat gold, 30 pounds of silver, and more precious gems than your local Zale’s store probably has.  The result?  A car that is now worth $4.6 million dollars.

While accessorizing and making your car unique has become a part of car ownership, this car seems to go a little bit too far.  You have to be pretty out there to think that you want to get a new paint job on your car and instead encase the entire body in precious metals and stones.  While this clearly isn’t for everyone, it still is a sight to behold, even if the sight is a gaudy one.

If you are looking for a reasonably priced car that will make you feel like a million bucks, then be sure to come into Superior Cars.
