$138,375.00 Original MSRP, with less than 10,000 miles.
When the phrase "No expense spared" has been used, that's pretty much a guarantee that the owner went to the right place to have this customized. However, someone should have intervened when Bubba said "Let's put a racing spoiler on a Benz". Even though this has racing customizations done to it, no matter what you do or how hard you try, it's still a luxury car. Some folks need an honest friend in their lives, I could have saved Bubba a couple of grand on that rear spoiler.
(Love the backseats. That way you can't have a car full of people)
Guess he's enjoying General Lee's car from the Dukes of Hazzard, and figured why keep the Mercedes. Bubba- if you're reading this: Do NOT, I repeat DO NOT add a hidious rear spoiler to the Dukes of Hazzard car. Do not allow people to talk you into that. Save your $3500 towards some other type of customization- not an obnoxious rear spoiler.
Oh and the car is for sale for $84,500. Better cash in your pennies to see if you have enough...
P.S. Yes I wikipedia'd Bubba, because I had no idea he was into owning customized cars, let alone that he was a Golfer. And I thought Golfers were as square as Tiger Woods.

David Beckham Sells Porsche... AGAIN.
Apparently, the original sale of David Beckham's Porsche 911 didn't last long. Now the Becks is selling it again, this time at Porsche North Scottsdale in Arizona via Ebay. (Note: He should have bypassed the dealer and went to Barrett Jackson. If Funkmaster Flex can sell a car at Barrett Jackson, surely he can).
Let's talk specs...
You're looking at a two door, convertible 2008 Porsche 911 that's completely blacked out. *smiles*. Has 9,859 miles. 6 Spd Automatic transmission. 3.6L H6 SFI DOHC TURBO Gasoline Engine. All Wheel Drive. Clear CarFax report!!!!! The customization does include a custom dual colored interior with "Twenty Three" stitched in the headrests (Let's be real, he should have uncustomized the headrests before he tried to sell this.) Black Matte Aftermarket 20 inch Wheels with 23 in the center caps, and the wheels are sitting on Pirelli Tires, custom floor mats, and most importantly: Matte Black exterior paint with smoked out head and tail lights.
(I don't know how they got those Range Rovers on those rocks, but you couldn't pay me to park them there. My nerves are too bad to try that.)
Now for my disclaimer that will hurt some folks feelings. I'm aware that it's tax time, and some of you are getting that refund. However, if your refund isn't $130,000, then do not entertain the thought of purchasing this vehicle. Who would you rather hear this from- me behind a computer screen or the salesmen at North Scottsdale Porsche face-to-face. Just being honest. I'm not a yes girl.
For more info, talk to Porsche of North Scottsdale or visit the ebay listing.
I do like David Beckham's style of customizing cars. I wonder what type of flair does Victoria have with hers...

Ryan Friedlinghaus of West Coast Customs selling Mercedes C63
I think buying a car from a person who owns a customization shop is the best move, because a shop owner is ALWAYS going to make sure that their car is their business card on wheels.
Case in point....
West Coast Customs owner and Inside West Coast Customs Star, Ryan Friedlinghaus made the ultimate decision and is selling his 2008 Mercedes-Benz S63 via ebay. This extremely low milaged (36,028 miles) luxury car also has a clean carfax report and has the starting bid of $70,000.
For once, FOR ONCE West Coast Customs has listed the specs of this customized car. Per the ebay listing:
Fully loaded premium 3 package, dynamic rear view monitor, night vision, Ipod Integration Kit, Parktronic, Rear Seat Package- 8 Way Power Adjust, Heated, and Ventilated Rear Seats (valued at $2,900), Panoramic Roof, 22 in Asanti Rim sitting on Continental Tires, Custom Fabricated 11 Piece Body Kit (Supposedly better than Lorinser) which includes the front bumper, side skirts, rear bumper, front fenders, etc, a one of a kind custom fabricated exhaust made especially for the car, with over $50,000 in custom parts, accessories, labor, and fabrication spent on this S63 AMG.
According to West Coast Customs, "We really spared no expense in the build of this one of a kind S63 using only the highest quality merchandise and craftsmanship, taking it to the next level..." Duh, this was the owners car. Of course they would use the highest quality merchandise and craftsmanship. It's not like this belonged to the guy who washes the cars.
Get to bidding, but only bid if you have enough dinero to pay for this car, gas, mortgage (not rent. If you're renting a house but you drive a car like this- your priorities are messed up. Sorry, but I'm being honest), food, and entertainment. Check out the official ebay by listing here.

2005 Chrysler 300C once owned by President Obama on sale for $1 million...
One of my favorite sites, autoblog.com, stumbled across this little gem. Apparently one ebay user decided to part ways with a Chrysler 300C... that once belonged to the President of the US, Barack Obama back when he was Senator of Illnois. According to the seller- "We have the original paperwork and the title showing this vehicle was actually used by Barack. 19,000 miles driven by the Obama - many highway miles back & forth to Springfield while he was an Illinois State Senator.
Obama received a lot of negative media attention regarding his gas guzzling V8 Hemi. He drove this Chrysler 300C from July 2004 through the summer of 2007. He put over 19,000 miles on it before trading it for a 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid."
There's no aftermarket wheels, tires, audio system, nothing. The only thing you're paying for is President Obama's butt print on the seat.
What a ripoff... but you have to give President Obama credit. At least he drove an American car. Check out the ebay listing here...

Lupe Fiasco is dumping his Ferrari 575
Lupe Fiasco is selling his 2004 Ferrari 575 through ebay via the same seller as Jessica Simpson. According to Eurocar, "this was exclusively for Mr. Fiasco, combined with the purchase of this super car was a signature from the owner of Ferrari (please see pictures of dash). It has the most desirable color combination and an exhilarating F1 transmission. The paint of this 575 is a great display of a properly maintained super car while the leather shows only minimal signs of wear." And yes, this Ferrari does have a clean record.
And the lucky winner of this will receive Lupe's signature on the dashboard. And the previous comment was dripping in sarcasm.
Time for the disclaimer... The selling price of said car is $66,000 and they (Eurocar) is looking for serious inquiries. The successful bidder is to contact our office at 949.722.7121 within 24 hours of auction end. If the end of the auction falls on a weekend or holiday, the next business day will be fine. At that time, we require a non-refundable $2000.00 deposit within the same 24 hour timeframe. If these terms are not met, will result in relisting the auction or selling the car to the next highest bidder. Within 72 hours of auction end the balance of the amount due must be received. That's their words. My words would have been a little harsher.
To check out the listing, see Lupe Fiasco's former Ferrari on Ebay.

Pamela Anderson is getting rid of her Range Rover
World Famous Pamela Anderson is finally parting ways with her Range Rover. This particular Range Rover has been photographed with Pamela for the cover of Dub Magazine. Her White 2007 Range Rover Supercharged is being sold on Ebay, with less than 80,000 miles for only $30,000. Let me repeat myself... a 2007 Range Rover Supercharged with under 80,000 miles, with a clean record, previously owned by Pamela Anderson for $30,000. That is a STEAL!!!
The photos of the truck are locked, but you can check out the ebay listing here.
P.S. I still loved her trailer that Unique Autosport customized for her.

Jessica Simpson parting ways with Bentley Continental GTC Mulliner
Jessica Simpson decided to get rid her three year old Bentley Continental GTC Mulliner edition via ebay. According to Eurocar (the seller), the exterior is finished in a metallic black while the leather is a light ivory fixed with black contrast stitching. Also adding a unique appeal to the interior is special ordered black piano wood and the Speed steering wheel. Every exterior panel is in pristine condition and the leather looks like it did when the car originally rolled off the showroom floor.
To continue with the specs, the car has 8700 miles (low milage car), it went through a 60 point inspection, was maintained by a Los Angeles' Bentley dealership, it doesn't have a clean record- the bumper needed spot-painting because it was backed into another vehicle.
Eurocar does offer attractive financing up to 96 months as well as the option of leasing your vehicle. If you're serious about taking this vehicle off their hands, and by serious, you're in the market for this car and you have more than $726 as your net worth, You can email them at sales@eurocaroc.com or give them a call at 949.722.7121.
I have to admit, the interior took my breath away. So gorgeous...

Bow Wow Parts With Orange Lamborghini Murcielago
The rapper I can’t stand, Bow Wow has decided to take the popular route and sell his Lambo via ebay. This loud orange 2006 Lamborghini Murcielago made it’s appearance on MTV Cribs during its arrogant owner’s segment.
To continue about the car, the car is in excellent condition. It currently has 6,550 miles, Automatic transmission, all wheel drive, 6.2L V12 engine. The car was primarily kept in Miami and the car was kept climate controlled along with his other vehicles (Bentley Continental GT, Porsche 911 Turbo, Aston Martin DB9, and a Range Rover Sport SuperCharged). “This Lambo just may be the nicest most well kept pre-owned cars I have ever come across considering all factors. When I say there is nothing the previous owner could have done to maintained this car any better, I mean it. This car was garaged kept AND also received monthly details. The paint also received an annual seal, which protects it from UV rays and other paint damaging conditions. Not only was the previous owner over the top with the upkeep of the cosmetic condition, he was more meticulous with the servicing. This Lambo has received EVERY single manufacturer recommended service from the same Lamborghini dealer in Miami (Prestige Imports) using only OEM parts and fluids. This vehicle just received a $18,000 service at 6,200 miles including: NEW CLUTCH, NEW STARTER, NEW P ZERO TIRES, BRAKE SERVICE AND ALL FLUIDS !!!! As fair as options go, this car has it all.........full CARBON FIBER interior, two-tone interior, color match interior stitching, navigation, custom $16k wheels (Asanti Wheels), new Pirelli P Zero tires, and MUCH MORE !!!” states Bravarian Motorsports
The body of the car doesn’t even have a single scratch or ding and the paint finish is just as amazing. And this is the original paint job. So it’s safe to say that Lil’ Shad babied his car.
To continue with the interior, it’s in great condition. Carpet doesn’t have any stains and were protected with all weather Audi floor mats. The driver seat does show very minor stress lines, but that’s about it.
The Carfax reports no accidents, purchased in 2006, the schmuck owned it for a little under 5 years and you can get all of the service reports in full detail.
This Lambo is currently in Virginia and Bavarian Motorsports were the ones who set the auction up on ebay. If you have the $155,250 for it, you can shoot them an email at bavariansmotorsports@gmail.com or call them at (202)491-9929. Serious, and I do mean serious inquiries ONLY. Don’t ask them for a test drive if you only have $384 in your checking account.
I will admit, this Lamborghini has more personality than the original owner. But honestly, Bow Wow would have done better putting the car up at Barrett-Jackson since the Lambo is in mint condition…
