Porsche: Completely plated with gold

If a Porsche is not expensive enough for you just let it be plated it with gold - completely.

Visualis, which is situated in Pforzheim, commissioned an artist to gild a Porsche Boxster in 22 carat beaten gold last year and now comes the news that the Gold Boxter will be followed by a limited edition model and nine further Porsches will be plated. All the major components, from the control elements such as the steering wheel and door knobs to the car body and alloy rims, are all gold plated, making the two seater extraordinarily expensive, and a price that Visualis has not yet disclosed. Nine further Porsche Models will undergo the same, unique refinement process to continue the creative project. Visualis' Petra Koehler reports that "curious people are already anxious to know who are going to be the owners of these magnificent automobiles."
