No, not the MTV program as you might have expected (although it's a great show!), but 10 billionaires rides...

Amazing how Billionaires seem to have most of the time enough sense to not spend all their money on their cars.

Well, most of them didn't have any super special cars. But Billy seems to have an idea about cars - the 911 type 996 Carrera Cabriolet is nice, but odd for a billionare.

I agree I find it odd that Bill hasn't upgraded to either a 997 Carrera 4S Cab, or is on the waiting list for a 997 Turbo, or go a step further and purchase a super car around - maybe a Porsche Carrera GT, or a Pagani Zonda etc. (not a Ferrari F60 Enzo, for two reasons - 1 Ferrari chooses who gets to drive own the car, and 2 . . . there aren't anymore )

The 959 on the other hand makes perfect sense, it's very rare car and would sell for around 1.5 Million

I have an idea... maybe he likes the car he has...

Quite a good point. Why change cars when the one you have at the moment does fine.

I was most surprised by what Ingvar Kamprad was driving - a 1993 Volvo 240 GL. Now there is a man who doesn't let his money go to his head!

Wow, I was expecting Ferrari galore...

Bill Gates has a weird color on his car...

 

Agreed, Ingvar Kamprad seems cool.

 

I like Jim Walton's choice. If only it was a Ford.

How in the world can a flipping Volvo be worth a couple billion bucks? Sheesh!

... No, smartlunch! The net worth of $23 billion listed underneath the picture of the Volvo is the net worth of its owner...

This thread makes me think of those "Unpimp the auto" commericials that are on quite frequently.. making fun of the Germans with their accented English and smashing "pimped out" cars. Must be one of the German auto makers.. never really paid attention who's its supposed to advertise.
