Bah, he is just helping stimulate the economy...although like they said, he could have flown mechanics to him to be a little more efficient about.

Hell...if any Sheiks are reading HMT...you can fly me to your country and I'll do oil changes for $3000 a pop...thats a killing savings

Ironic that an Arab would have to go somewhere else for an OIL related service...

Oh, and how ------- hard or different can an oil change be on an exotic car?

Unplug
Unscrew filter
Re-plug
Re-screw new filter
Fill with minty fresh Arab oil.

Its amazing how they **** money away like that, I am sure a mechanic with his own tools could have been sent there. They might as well have a service center located there given the number of rich mother ******* there....

costs an estimated 10000$ to change oil on ferrari enzo...on exotics these days, the undercarrage is more aerodynamic then the top of the car....---- tons of carbon fiber.

Do they have to buy all new carbon fiber pieces or something? lol... what a joke.

Maybe I'm just too used to making normal wages and can't fathom being THAT rich.
