Swissvax Divine- the world's most exclusive car wax

Updated Apr 1, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

DIVINE -
The world's most exclusive car wax, specially blended for a particular vehicle and particular paint finishes.

Each year, Swissvax blends, for a very limited number of collectors and enthusiasts, a glaze of most exceptional quality containing over 60% by volume of ultra pure Brazilian white carnauba wax.

It is made to order and is specially formulated to meet the paint system of one particular vehicle. Each individual formula comes in its own exclusively hand-crafted packaging, together with a solid Sterling Silver plate bearing the vehicle's details and/ or owner's name. Apply after pre-treating with Cleaner Fluid.

Swissvax is also known as Swizol and Swissol, depending upon the country. Divine is their top of the line product, but they carry many fine waxes that are more affordable for the common folk.

so, how much for the kit? A steal at $2,500.00 here

Custom 2008 Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe

Updated Feb 2, 2008

1st to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

This amazing offer for a specially outfitted Rolls Royce is a limited Robb Report edition and is valued at just under a half a million dollars. Sold first come, first served. (think there's a rush?)


About the car:
While the Drophead Coupe is based on the robust aluminum space frame that underpins the Phantom, it is nine inches shorter and dressed in far less formal clothing. Its Diamond Black exterior provides stark contrast to the brushed stainless steel hood and the warm tones of its teakwood deck. It rides on massive 21" wheels and sits on the road in a fashion you are not used to seeing in contemporary cars. This car is big, bold, and beautiful. Its rakish lines, teak decking, and stainless trim recall the elegance of J-class yachts of the golden era. In stark contrast to those very classic notes, is a full range of very advance technologies at your finger tips.

The Robb Report Bespoke Commission will feature a black cloth top, a black leather interior, black carpeting, and piano black wood on the dash and side door panels. A brushed stainless-steel hood contrasts dramatically with the diamond-black exterior paint complementing the all-noir them.

Love someone? Reduce global warming for them with Terra Pass.

Updated Jan 17, 2007

1st to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

Truly genius. The gift of giving to the person you love AND the planet you love.

This Terra pass is an unbelievably brilliant idea. They can be purchased for car, home, flight and more.

Don't really understand?

Read on from their site:
The first step you can take to fight global warming is to reduce your carbon footprint through conservation. Drive less. Turn down the thermostat. Buy locally produced goods.

Then use TerraPass to reduce your carbon footprint all the way to zero.

When you buy a TerraPass, your money funds renewable energy projects such as wind farms. These projects result in verified reductions in greenhouse gas pollution. And these reductions counterbalance your own emissions.

Fly her to the moon. Literally.

Updated Jan 17, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

Don't just take your valentine away for the weekend. Take her into space!

For just under 2 million dollars, you and four friends can take a private Virgin chartered trip into space.

Granted, take off isn't until 2009.

details below:


The Burton Rutan-designed SpaceShipOne® has already completed three space missions and won the $10 million Ansari X Prize® for the first private space flight. Now, funded by Virgin, Rutan is building a larger, commercial version of SpaceShipOne exclusively for Virgin Galactic. Like Sir Richard Branson's previous adventures, this one is being planned, designed, tested, and executed down to the last detail to ensure its safety and success. Construction is also progressing on a $200 million spaceport in New Mexico, and Branson and Rutan are on schedule to begin regular private space travel in 2009. Your six-passenger charter begins with three days of medical assessments and training for the astronauts-to-be. When your systems are go, your group will board SpaceShipTwo® and fly off attached to a launching aircraft. About 10 miles up, the countdown will occur in mid-air. SpaceShipTwo will detach, fire its custom-designed hybrid rocket, and propel you into the majesty of space. Most astronauts have trouble describing the ethereal, awe-inspiring view of Earth from the silence of space; your six travelers won't have to put it into words. About 63 miles above sea level, you will also experience weightlessness firsthand. After gliding back to Earth with a runway landing, it's off to Sir Richard's private island retreat in the British Virgin Islands for each astronaut and a guest. Your party of 12 will enjoy luxury accommodations on Necker Island and four nights of all-inclusive festivities. Sir Richard will host an exclusive celebration and personally present each member of your flight with a set of Virgin Galactic astronaut wings. With events on land, in the air, and in space, this is the ultimate getaway. For more information on a gift package that is genuinely out of this world, please call 1.877.9NM.GIFT.

Neiman Marcus is acting as the advertiser for this trip. Expected departure in 2009. Subject to Virgin Galactic standard Deposit Terms and Conditions, Conditions of Carriage, and Virgin Limited Edition standard Terms and Conditions for stay on Necker Island.

Been there? Done that? Take her to the depths of the ocean.

Updated Jan 17, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

More than just a two-man submersible, the Deep Flight Aviator, a 22-foot vessel that can dive to 1,500 feet, represents a unique travel opportunity: a chance to visit regions where no one else has ventured. The winged Aviator resembles a high-performance plane, with thrusters that propel the submersible to a top speed of 10 mph. An acrylic pod allows for clear viewing of the surroundings, and lights can be mounted on the Aviator to illuminate the mysteries of the deep.

Before you can claim the Aviator, Deep Flight Submersibles, the company that builds it, will require you to attend its three-day Sub Sea Aviation School. Previous sessions have been held in the Bahamas and in Mexico’s Sea of Cortés.

The Aviator, which weighs 4,300 pounds, can be transported via plane or helicopter, and it can be mounted like a tender on a megayacht.

Price: Starting at $1.7 million, plus the $15,000 fee to attend the three-day Sub Sea Aviation School.

Let's Just Stay In & Watch A Movie (custom home theaters)

Updated Jan 17, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

I must confess, I'm a homebody.
And given the choice between going out to watch a movie and staying in, I prefer to stay in.

No people coughing, talking, cellophane wrappers crinkling or sticky crap on my shoes.

But I thought I was living the high life with my panasonic plasma and my comfy sofa until I saw these!

Granted most of them are disgustingly decorated, too opulent and grotesque, but if someone offered to build me one, well....

Montegrappa 1912 - Eternal Bird Pen & 18k gold ink pot

Updated Jan 17, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

Don't bother writing your valentine a love letter, just give them this and they can write their own!

They say the pen is mightier than the sword. Especially when it's encrusted with diamonds, rubies and 18k gold.

Ten years after Montegrappa debuted its coveted Dragon pen, the company has introduced its Montegrappa Eternal Bird limited-edition fountain pen, for which it employed the same die-casting technique to create an 18-karat yellow gold overlay depicting a phoenix. The company will craft only 10 pieces of the jeweled variation of the pen, which is set with 244 diamonds (totaling 3.2 carats) and is priced at $30,850. The Eternal Bird comes in a polished wood case, but for an additional $14,500, your pen can nest in a matching 18-karat gold and rock crystal inkwell, which, like the pen, is accented with two rubies.
