Default Lexus LS600h L Auctioned off

The LS 600h L was auctioned off at the Naples Winter Wines Festival for a whopping $260,000 US.

Other cars also auctioned off

There was some crazy bids for a Rolls, Bentley and Maserati.

One thing some of the bids were almost 4x the value of the car.

Crazy ultra wealthy people.

they probably don't really feel much about it anyway

and getting the #1 NM ls600hl, they may think it's a pretty good deal

To those people bidding on the auction for the charity it's not about which car they are bidding on or how much they are paying for it. They already have a set amount that they have decided on to give away, so if someone wishs to donate $250k to the charity it wouldn't make any difference if they were bidding on a LS460 or a case of K Feds latest hits CD.
