Millionaire mounts Lambo as wall decoration
 

:tsk:
**********
Some millionaires decorate their mansions with rare paintings. Richard Moriarty bolted a 1974 Lamborghini to the wall of his Newport Beach estate early Friday.

Because Home Depot doesn't sell kits to hang cars as artwork, Moriarty hired a 70-ton crane to lower the Italian sports car through a skylight in his living room.

Earlier, the car's engine was removed and transformed into a "200-mph coffee table" for guests who prefer their drinks "shaken not stirred," said Moriarty, an heir to the family that developed South Coast Plaza.

Full story

I hope his house burns down.

I think that's cool! Unfortunately, I can't even afford the wall...

Another case of someone having too much money. :tsk:

i wonder how the "200-mph coffee table" looks like....

The opportunity for practical jokes is endless...such as strapping a passed out guest into the driver's seat and filming the expression on his face as he comes to in the morning.

...but I hope his house burns down.

His house NOT burning down is proof that there is no God.

dont see the problem with that. good luck to the guy. rather that on the wall than some muti million dollar painting of a bunch of grapes. and i hope his house doesnt burn down. nice to be rich.

Being affluent is great. Acting nouveau riche and doing stupid things with your money is not. Why not use the money to seed a hedge fund investing in fuel cell technology?

At least a Vermeer or a Picasso will hold it's value.
