Antilles Seaplanes G-21 Super Goose is an amazing rich kid’s toy that could send him or her flying into the air. Of course, it is not literally a toy and is a propah high flying plane. It can not only fly in the air but can also navigate through the sea and is the remake of Grumman Goose.

The Grumman Goose carried people like Hemingway and MacArthur many decades ago. It uses the same design and plan but only the technology belongs to the 21st century. It doesn’t matter where you wanna go, you could fly this plane. The Antilles Seaplanes G-21 Super Goose could be used in icy waters and also in blazing sun and hence it all depends on you in the end.

The cool Super Goose is not yet available and it is not known how much it might cost. It would be anything but cheap, trust me. However, you really should not be caring about cash when it comes to something awesome like Antilles Seaplanes G-21 Super Goose.

If you think you are a great biker, you might be in for a golden opportunity literally. The Golden Race Series consists of 7 cross country races and the winner would have the privilege to take home a GT Golden Bike. This bike is not for sale but would be given away as a prize. Moreover, in order to retain the cycle, one would have to win the next year even.

If you win the Golden Race Series challenge, you would not only get the golden bike, but you would also get an all expense paid trip to the next race, a cycling gear swag bag, $250 gift certificate and of course loads of fun and new friends.

Though you may not want to get your ass up on a cycle and start pedalling, the golden bike challenge must motivate you to start cycling a bit more. If you asked me, I don’t think the cycle looks all that cool. Nevertheless, it should be a sight worth watching, if you could get to pedal home this golden bike.

Bugatti Veyron Pur Sang is one of the most expensive cars ever to be manufactured. It has even been listed on JamesList for the same reason. Florida’s auto dealer Forza Collezione has put up a fourth Pur Sang on sale, while only three had been available of the 5 ever manufactured. It is going to come with a price tag of $3.8 million and would not be within the reach of many people. It is made of exposed carbon fiber and comes with aluminium bodywork.

It was however sold out within 24 hours of its announcement. Perhaps one could track down the 5th car, which would make all the Pur Sangs to be bought by 5 different lucky people. Even when recession is at its full swing, people still manage to buy ultra luxury cars which suggests that the luxury market is not doing so badly after all.

Perhaps it is the story of the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer. Of course, I would have loved to get this car for myself but if I were in a position to buy the Pur Sang, I certainly would not be giving all this information!

Maurice Calka P.-D.G desk at the Sotheby’s 20th Century Design is an interesting piece of furniture that simply blows away your mind. It is estimated to cost between £60,000 and £90,000. It was designed in the 1969 and has a history to it.

It was originally designed for the Leleu Deshays LDD and is made of the best quality fiberglass and the chair swivels, as you want as it comes with adjustable mechanism. The reason why it is so expensive is because it is so rare. The sale will take place on the 28th of April, so you must hurry up and place your bid at the Sotheby’s.

I am sure your guests would love to use this unique and awesome chair as it is so stylish and so European. There really is something about European furniture designs! If you miss the auction, you may never get it again!

Having a number plate that is specifically designed the way you want them in terms of what goes on the board is a bug deal and many people go out of their way to get one that they want. To have the initials that you want and to be the first one in that series is indeed a big deal and that is what was proved by the auctions of some very special number plates by the UK car registration agency. The 1 RH plate went for a whooping $247,652 and the other number plates also went for a lot and reaped in some rich bounty of the municipal authorities.

The sale of 1 RH was impressive, but so was the performance of other lots which achieved prices that would otherwise have raised eyebrows in their own right. Amongst the respectable sales which, nevertheless, pale by comparison were CHR 151S ($13,974) and AYM 44N ($10,564). There have been previous number plates that have gone for a fortune as well and it seems that the sale of number plates is totally immune to the economic slump happening worldwide.

The 1 RH was bought by businessman Robert Harverson and the recruitment sector specialist sure seemed happy with the deal he got out of it!

Just go over to eBay as quickly as you can and maybe you can still manage to outbid someone for this cutting-edge technology in surveillance system that uses infrared imaging to analyze data even in wobbly conditions. The FLIR Thermal Imaging System that has been earlier used in a chopper is now up for grabs on eBay with its ‘Take it Now’ price being a mere $40,000. There are “surprisingly”, no current bids on it and so you can get it for that fabulous discount if you hurry.

The FLIR can pick up data even in stormy conditions as new gyroscopic technology embedded in it will allow you to get the perfect infra red image even in shaky weather. So you go and bid for it and get it home with ‘free shipping’ that it offers. But what do you do with it after that? Well, you could hunt rats with it, smoke out infestation and if you happen to be some kind of terrorist then can use it for your next bombing. (Though shipping to Afghanistan and Pakistan is not free)

Different people across the world have different passions that they indulge in and some take that to a crazy new level. We have never been to Transylvania and so we really cannot confirm about the existence of any real blood sucking, charming, young guys and girls with fangs and wings. But we can sure confirm that there is still an authentic 200-year old antique Vampire Killing Kit that has recently gone away in auction for $ 14,850 on Natchez. Who ever bought the kit will have a tougher time finding a vampire to use it on!

The Vampire Kit seems to be equipped enough to kill more than just one demon of the dark though as it is loaded with a ton of stuff. We thought a cross, some water and a few lines from Bible were good enough for the job. There is a stake, knife, gun, bullets and plenty of other stuff and the kit is more like a huge trunk that you need to drag around. Not very mobile for an instant Vampire hunt!

The K1 Attack Spider might not really look like much on the face of it and if you were asked to pay well over hundred thousand dollars for one of these, then you have every right to be asking what is so special about it. All set to go away in an auction on eBay, this K1 Attack Spider is all about merging speed with style as this limited edition cars were built for the track. Sporting a tubular chassis like the modern F1 cars, the K1 is not really a road demon.

What is so special about it’s is the fact that their production stopped way back in 1996 and there really are not many of these left up for grabs. If reports are to be believed the K1 attack original concept car kits will become collector’s items and in the future their value could touch a price of whopping $1,000,000. Now if that is indeed true, then you better borrow some money and buy this one as this is arguably the best investment for the future apart from an oil well in the Middle East.

This year was no different with the collective price of all cars amounting to an absolute whooping $29 million. The heart of the show was the 1949 MG TC Roadster Race Car, which went for $313,500. The car looks absolutely as shiny as it must have when it first made its way out on to the road. Driven by the legendary Carroll Shelby the first time he participated in a road race in 1952, the car is legendary for its stint in racing and who can pass on such spectacular wheels that actually sport Number 23!

There is no doubt that vintage cars are really going for far more than many modern cars with cutting edge technology. It is no surprise either with the pride that car lovers take in collecting them. But the Barret-Jackson Collector Car Event once again proved that sometimes old cars can be worth more than a fortune.

If you are looking to make the best car purchase that will give you a thrill like none else, then you are in great luck as we have just the thing for you. This might sound like a bit of an exaggeration, but is indeed hard to contain yourself when you know that you are about to see an all-time classic, a legend, infact, of the car domain go under the hammer. The 1963 Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spyder has quite simply no match in this world and even the Enzo Ferrari pales in comparison with the tradition and the grandeur of this amazing set of wheels. It is no wonder then that this one-of-a-kind car will be auctioned off for £3,000,000-£3,500,000!

The creation of Enzo Ferrari and Pinin Farina this magical car was recently put back in perfect shape and is in a condition that would allow you to seamlessly travel across the country on these vintage wheels. The car has a very special, retractable, gray silver painted hood and a car that typically represents all that Ferrari is. A 280 bhp, V-12 engine powered demon, the Spyder will not feel anything like driving an old car. The engineering precision of the folks at Maranello will put many of the modern cars to shame.

The story of how Pinin Farina and Enzo Ferrari came together at lunch and decided to create a street-legal Ferrari which will not only open the Maranello doors to more ordinary folk, but also give additional financial boost to the company’s racing dream is indeed fascinating. Created to put perfection and engineering beauty into one flowing form, the California Spyder will hit headlines where ever it goes from here and for whatever price it goes. I know that I could sell my whole block and still not have enough money to buy this. But if you want to bid, do not miss this “once in a lifetime” opportunity!
