The gold ring I got for the missus weighed a ton, let alone a whole damn car!

Hmmm I wouldn't have thought it would be white gold.
More like chrome paint.

Not too sure on that myself to be honest...having said that- there are plenty of factory spec cars that do not meet Australian emissions legislation etc here.....basically, I thought that all exhaust outlets had to be rearward of the last doors/openings of the vehicle, hence some trucks have side/top exiting pipes...but I could be wrong!!  : I wonde if that model is available here? If so, I would definately be wrong!

That exhaust is legal in oz, simply because it is factory but you are not allowed to fit it to a car that it did not come with.
The car looks awesome but I highly doubt it is gold, more like chrome paint. The concept of a gold plated car disgusts me, spending the equivalent of a small countries GPD on a depreciating assett while jacking up fuel prices claiming losses in profit.
