The price, might be a tad steep though, at $34000.00 US

What car do I get with it if I buy one of those?
I woudnt buy one for sure, I dont see any carrying case with it, if they dont want to put in a carrying case, I wont have one.

What about that heavy-duty handle on top? There's no way I'd carry $30,000 in just one hand...maybe if it was filled with helium, padded, and equipped with an anti-theft device.
