Default First billion dollar paint job

***Warning you might throw up in your mouth***
Billion dollar paint job
I called the number listed and his mom answered the phone but she coudn't answer any questions. I seriously couldnt stop laughing when she said thats how the car looks. I had to hang up because I never really expected someone to answer the phone.

There are a couple of possible scenarios for the paint job costing so much:

-He had to bribe the painter with a billion dollars to execute a potentially career-ending paint job.

-Each and every bit of metalflake on the car was hand laid using tweezers.

-The seller is delusional and thinks that not only is the paint nice, but it is in fact, a work of fine art and should be sold at a price befitting fine art.

Now, I'm only guessing here....

Could we have Steve Wynn put a LAWS rocket through it instead?

Before I looked to see where it was from, I thought "that car has to be from Georgia", sure enough, GA on the add, scary
