Oh ok, but it is "fake" cos the caption said "traffic" in dubai, which make the average jo think that is what happens EVERYDAY.
As i said earlier, Dubai has one of the highest concentration of super cars, but when informing people we have to put the facts right just as you have done not making it look like "this is the regular traffic in dubai"

No ofcos it doesn't happen everyday he just captioned it the way he felt he could express the picture cheesy

I'm not impressed. Gold plated cars are not pretty to me. And they have lots of human rights issues over there.

............... Only in Dubai will you find rediculous monstrosities such as this Bentley H2 Hummer.cheesy

Gold plated cars, they are here,like the one in the picture below.

Not just gold colored but gold plated. When these cars are custom ordered from the factory, they cannot have the standard V6 or V8 engine, no

that would be too normal, they order them to have a V 12 motor.

You can hear the cars with the V12 motors roaring up behind you, even with your windows rolled up, loud and thundering. Your car shakes as it roars on past.

[b]The Things People Do With Their Money...Only in Dubai

There is a lot of money in the middle east. In the UAE, specifically Dubai, you see it everywhere. Money is spent extravagantly and lavishly, sometimes on some of the most unusual things and /or in excess. Automobiles, homes, animals and buildings...it does not matter.

I have mentioned it in previous posts but expensive luxury cars are so commonplace in Dubai, that it seems normal to see Ferrari's, Rolls Royce and Maybachs all around you on the road. But have you ever seen a baby pink expedition ? I have and it is simply beautiful. It looked like cotton candy on wheels.

The Rolls Royce Ghost in the picture below pulled up along side of us on Jumeriah Beach Road. The young men driving the car looked as if they were 14, okay, maybe 16. I wondered if their dad knew they had his car out for a spin ? They were happy to smile for the camera shot, then off they went. I sure hope they got the car home safely, with out any new scratches or dents.


Have you ever seen a Rolls Royce covered in artificial grass, the whole thing in Astro turf?hmmm I had never seen any car covered in fake grass, let alone a Rolls Royce. Don't quite understand that one.

If they want it, they have it done.[/b]

This is what we would have achieved with our sovereign wealth today if not because of religious/ethnic bigotry and sheer wickedness of our leaders.

WEEP FOR THIS NATION.

Rare occurrences! They are exaggerated though. More like animals meant for circus. What is with having ferocious animals in your car? This is just utter silliness to look extreme in all activities about Dubia. Yolk! Primitive man's mentality indeed.
Re: Things You Only See In Dubai by justi4jesu(f): 8:32am On Aug 23, 2014
One thing I have learned while living here in Dubai, always keep your camera on your person and close.

Be ready for a picture when you least expect it.

Ekans: Thats what I call wealthy, makes Nigerian Billionaires shut up.

You don't know anything. Uncountable Nigerian billionaires live in this kind of affluence in these countries and may in fact be the owners of some of these assets you are seeing. They may not show a lot of these extreme wealth here to avoid too much attention. Do you know how much is being stolen in this country daily?

justi4jesu:

The traffic is not fake maybe it was taken during celebrations because they usually have celebration of different models of cars from time to time, so today they might have celebration of Ferrari cars and you see more than 500 owners of ferrari cars on the streets. So it is not FAKE.

Mustang Celebrates 50th Anniversary With Middle East Enthusiasts In Massive Event In Dubai

And they also have Dubai Chase Street Racing Festival, then you see cars and you Jaw will drop like woww

Will you call this fake?
That is an event, dude. It can happen in any country. There is no big deal in having mustang by different people displayed in a car show. Oh, please! Dubai doesn't manufacture none of those suppercars.

I sorry for Africa. Every africans countries are lack behind when it come to development. We are well educated than the arab but our leaders are self-centred,they translate looting to transformation and seeing those countries as a venue for their own children to be educated. Jonathan is in germany for patial illness and he sacked 16thousand doctors that are in charge of those that not equal in capacitance. Abacha alone looted more the Nigeria budget for a year and his son was pardon, which is a the only link to his father unscruplous whealth

Dubai don't have oil, they make money from only tourism. Oil is in abu dhabi, of which they don't invest in dubai.

l agree with your point of view, the key word is they are doing this to attract visitors and they will go at all length to market dubai to the outside world,but, when you live in the country for few weeks or months you discover that not all that glitters is gold..
