Luxury items you really want for no reason

[eXistor]

Original Arcade cabinets. Fuck it, an entire arcade.

 

[Rotkehle]

Sprinters are kinda all over the place even direct from Mercedes - they span the range from big tin crate on wheels to loaded soundproof 4wd limo.

If I could actually afford one I'd probably get a conversion of an AWD extended van - but the airstream version is the one that looks the most like it came out of the Benz factory.

If I lived in Europe there'd be more options - including the (IMO) awesome little VW California.

I always thought about buying a VW California. Awesome Maschine. You can get good used ones for about 50K€

An Xbox

 

[Gangster Gastino]

Stax SR-009 + a worthy amp/dac to accompany it

I'v got one of those. Love it. Treat yourself.

I'm thinking of buying a luxury car for my next purchase, but I continue to remind myself it's a waste of money. But I used to say that about buy new cars, and since buying one I'll never get a used one again.

I can't do used either. I hate used anything not just cars. I have a $2000 pistol (Mark 23 aka Solid Snakes Metal Gear Solid socom pistol). I bought it used and want to replace it just because it has wear that I would've done but it wasn't done by me. Lol

I'm thinking of trading my Hellcat for a Model 3.

 

[subpar spatula]

It's weird. I want a really fancy mechanical watch with intricate parts and shit, but I got a rolex I never wear, so I am torn.

 

[CosmicGP]

actually found the one in my inbox from when I was thinking of buying one.

AP Millenary Chalcedony Tourbillon. $326,700 at the time. 395 diamonds.

Same. Any tourbillon watch, really. Would be amazing just to stare at it and see it do its thing.

This doghouse

I've suddenly become obsessed with owning a Tesla Model 3 despite the fact that I can't drive.

 

[Chan]

I have a Tumi carry on that I never use because I prefer my Osprey Porter 46 for traveling.

That seems to be it:

The MB&F Horological Machine N°6

With its biomorphic curves, animated spheres, 'winking' eye and beating heart, HM6 is our most organic machine to date.

In each of the four corners of HM6's biomorphic case is a 360° sphere, capped top and bottom by transparent sapphire crystal domes. Up forward, two spheres rotate vertically respectively displaying hours and minutes. Back aft, the twin spherical turbines spin, regulating the automatic winding system to reduce stress and wear.

The transparent cupola on top houses a flying tourbillon and offers a tantalizing glimpse into the sophisticated engine inside. The sapphire crystal display portal on the back reveals more of the 475 finely finished components making up the highly complex movement, which required over three years of development. The sapphire crystal plates of the HM6-SV and Alien Nation editions offer even more comprehensive views − top and bottom − to the movement within.

Horological Machine N°6 Final Edition finishes a series started in 2014. With the 8 pieces of HM6 Final Edition, the number of pieces made in the Horological Machine N°6 series comes to a total of exactly 100.

There's a whole world of watchmaking above the traditional 'big three' of Patek Phillipe, Audemars Piguet and Vacheron Constantin, the likes of Jaeger-LeCoultre and A. Lange & Söhne nipping at the heels of those three and the mid-rangers like Rolex, Omega and Breitling.

I unironically want these

 

[Maturin]

I'd love an expensive hand-made mechanical watch.

But as someone who loves guitar - and owns several including a very nice Gibson Les Paul - I've realised the guitar I want is a fairly expensive (for me) ESP E-II Eclipse. Can't quite afford one right now, and it's not like I'm short of guitars already.

Oh and that levitating glass. Didn't know I need that until I saw it.

 

[Inki]

Tesla S P100D w/ Ludicrous Mode. "Stock" from Tesla $112k (0-60 2.4s). But then some TLC mods to the body similiar to whats shown here.

 

[Slim]

Chiron.. even though it makes no sense driving those cars on norwegian roads.

 

[White Glint]

The entire collection of JFREY x Kojima Productions collaboration sunglasses. They're all so pretty

Probably the most beautiful watch I have ever seen.

Not a fan of watches with lots of diamonds or bling.

A boat.

Or this:

Mercedes Airstream Atlas.

I'm getting old enough that I can appreciate a good RV.

 

[Dead Guy]

I've always wanted a nice boat despite not living anywhere near water. So I'd first move to the coast then buy a nice yacht

 

[Sordid Plebeian]

A Nimitz-class aircraft carrier

 

[Santerestil]

A geochron:

 

[itwasTuesday]

I wouldn't say no to an original Ripley watch.

 

[meowdi gras]

A steinway & sons piano...and I can't even play the piano. Or Apple's Pro Display XDR.

Click to shrink...

A Steinway is on my list, as well as a top of the line Tesla Model S. Hopefully within the next 5 years.

I have a 1943 Steinway & Sons parlor grand I'm looking to sell for cheap if you're interested, lol.

I just watched the Space Pirate one and it was stunningly beautiful craftsmanship but all I can think about is this scene playing out on a superyacht.

"Yo What time is it?"

Glances at spinning platinum turbines and orbital number globe.


"I have no fucking idea."

 

[Team_Feisar]

I really want one of those high end custom lightsabers...

But that's when you pull out your diamond-studded iPhone 11 Pro and confidently proclaim it's 3:52pm.

 

[OptiveLink]

Holy shit, after a few hours of thinking about the bass, I went back into the world of custom instruments and I THINK I'll be able to get what I wanted for a price I can actually see myself being able to pay. (While supporting small businesses)
So, uh, thanks for the thread. lol

Ferrari F40. Ever since I downloaded that NFS: Heat app, I've been creating my own custom cars. I can't even drive.
