Spotted this baby while I was in Sri Hartamas last weekend, was shocked to see such a thing here in Malaysia (Mark can agree with me =P)..
That is a *drumrolls and inhales* Hummer H2 here in the local scene. It costs a bomb coming in at USD112,000++ in the US and the rich bastard who imported it in must be insanely rich to pay the 300% import duty tax which rings the total bill up to close to RM1.2 million JUST for the Hummer in stock condition and import fees. Looking at it I think it had some serious cosmetic surgery. It still blows my mind away just thinking about it really. Unless this guy had some relation to the AP fandango, he paid a sum equivelent to the price of a double story semi-detachable house in Bangsar, 30 Perodua Kancils, 750 Moskitos, or 2300000 donuts from Tesco for it. That’s a mighty high price for a car.
What’s that thing the Travel channel calls it again? Oh yeah, Ticket To Indulgence. Being ‘Unfeasibly Rich’.

It’s so contradictory and let me explain why. First you say in your profile that you dislike people who complain/make fun of/bully people that are rich. Then, you say that they are, quote,’unfeasibly rich’. You dislike ashley saying your blog is boring but yet you have the guts to call another person’s blog boring? Excuse me but I’ve had enough contradictions/hypocrisy for today. MAKE UP YOUR MIND!! Anyway, a (space) n (space) d (space) y’s blog here is all about boring stuff like cars and motorbikes. I’m not saying it’s boring, just that it’s about boring stuff.
aysha 03.23.06 @ 4:52 amHow come you’re comparing (quote myself) people who can indulge in wealth and luxury to people who are insanely rich? (the unfeasibly rich is a term coined by the Discovery Channel). I proudly say that people who can indulge in luxury are people who can have it the easy way if they wanted it that way, like me and I can afford to own a personal vehicle compared to those who cant but on the other hand cannot accept the fact that other people (or outside their social circle at least) are capable of doing so. There’s a significant difference here, mind you.
You know, a celebrity like Hayden is unfeasibly rich, because he can *simply* buy cars as he please and they aren’t really budget soccer mom sedans ok. We come into the topic of people who bite off more than they can chew, whats the use of having so many cars when you as a person is only an individual that is only capable of sanely driving one car at a time? see the difference now?
Idiot, I never said I disliked it lah, I’m saying if you find my blog boring then go read some other interesting ones and dont come rambling to me about it in a way that you demand me to write in a style which you will like, because i dont write for you! i write for the readers as a whole, it would be different if statistically everyone came to me and said hey your blog’s boring and it needs a change (and this is in a polite manner) then maybe I would consider doing so.
Well, thats fine with me aysha, I happen to know for a fact that some people are just fine with reading about stuff like cars and motorbikes so you can go crazy on ashley’s blog for all i care! and FYI, I was 100% joking in my comment, do you really think I’d with real intention discriminate OUR team like that on purpose? not quite.
