Its all relative though isnt it, if you got the kind of money for a Maybach that air freshner probably isnt that expensive and it does look kind of cool for an air freshner!

I was just in a Ferrari/Maserati showroom about an hour ago and was trying to not trip over the two brand new 458's . One was $370,000 and the other was $400,000. Base sticker was $280,000 so that's a lot of options......carbon fibre this and hand stitched that, the list went on....

To make a long story short, I couldn't afford the 90 grand they wanted for the Mas (two years old with 17000kms on it.)
Have to wait 'til next payday.....

Are you sure that price didn't include a mark-up because of rarity value.

Over here in the UK 458s are still selling at about £20k over list price due to lack of supply

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a "rare" premium but there were two in the front room, one in the back shop and the salesman mentioned that his clients' was like the one in the back so that's 4 in Calgary for sure and you don't see too many on the road. We obviously have too much "Oil Money and too many NHL Hockey Players" here.

The waiting list over here is about 2 years I think. So there's a small section of people who a) can't wait that long, b) can afford one!
