Gold-plated Lamborghini Up for Auction (Photo and Video)


A brand-new model of Lamborghini, made out of 500-kilogram block of solid gold and  25 kilograms of the precious metal valued at $2.64 million is up for auction in Dubai with a starting price set at $7.5 million, of which $650,000 will go to charity, according to RGE Robert Gulpen Engineering in Germany.



The custom model of the Lamborghini Aventador LP-700-4, labeled as the world's most expensive model car in the world, the full-sized car is a beast under the hood, with a V12 engine producing 700 bhp that will take you from 0-100 km/h in 2.9 seconds.


A Lamborghini spokesperson in Dubai told CNBC that in the one week it's been on display, there have yet to be any expressions of interest from potential buyers. Arguably, the real Aventador right beside the small gold-plated prototype model makes for a compelling distraction. - By CNBC's Yousef Gamal El-Din. Follow him on Twitter @youseftv
