Why is it called the million dollar motorcar?
Pretty simple. I have devided the whole surface area of the car into 100.000 1x1cm (roughly 0.39x0.39 inch) blocks and I am selling each block for $10 each. If you buy 10 or more blocks you get full creative freedom of what you can put on these blocks, this can be a logo, picture, text, your name, etc. Pretty much anything goes, as long as it’s not offensive. Everybody buying more than 10 blocks are also listed on www.themilliondollarmotorcar.com together with a link to your site or a short description of what you have put on the blocks. If you buy less than 10 blocks you can pick the color of each block. Selling all blocks will lead to a grand total of $1.000.000 (and that’s why it’s called the million dollar motorcar).
I had this idea for a while and after a few years I decided to turn this idea into reality. After a lot of prep work I finally set the wheels in motion at the end of last week. There has already been a lot of support and enthusiasm for my project. A lot of locals have bought blocks to just pick a color and even a few companies have put their name on the car. I even sold some blocks to random people when stopping at a gas station just because they like the idea. It’s still a long way from being completed but at the moment I have sold around 480 blocks within the first week and I am pretty happy with that result.

Is the money for charity , or for your personal gain ?

Sounds like a legit scam.

What will you do with the money?

First up, when the project is completed I will plan to make a road trip with the car through several countries. I am planning to visit some of the people that have funded and I am planning to make a short documentary about it. I want to put the people up front and I want to give them the time to talk about their motivations of becoming part of this project. After that I would like to pay off my college debt and do something nice for my parents and my sister. I also have some cool business ideas that I want to turn into reality and hopefully be able to employ some of my friends as the credit crisis has hit them hard.

well why not.

Hate all you want, i dont care. nobody is forcing you to be part of this project :) anyways, block number 600 sold! A local girl wanted a hot pink block on the car and more companies are joining in as well to put their name on the car.

Also took the car for a spin to the countryside and shot this pic:

Also, a few local news papers asked to write an article about the car and naturally I said yes so the car is going to be in the papers soon! So far so good haha!

I love it. Donate to the charity of me ! It's like you are selling shares in a fake company and running off with the proceeds.

Anyway best of luck , whoever gives you cash deserves to lose it lol

this is the best part.

It is possible to remove your text, images or blocks from the car for any reason but you will not get a refund and the blocks will be for sale again.

that as one of your conditions says that in a few months when this has died and you are no longer getting money you can just take it all off. Good plan man.

What a coincidence! I'm doing this too!

Except I'm only charging $9 per block.

If I hit my target of $900,000 I plan to buy a Ferrari and go on a long overseas holiday.

PM me if interested.
