Lately, Supercar Blondie showed her prowess behind the wheel of a Jaguar F1 racer. The First Lady of Luxury Cars also checked out the latest Bentley Flying Spur. But the world's most famous auto hostess showcasing to her four million fans a $35-million mansion for sale in Dubai seems like a stretch. That is, until she points out that the current owner is willing to throw in two free supercars - a Ferrari and a Rolls Royce. Here's a look at the vehicles in the transaction.
A Ferrari For Free?
One of the high-end cars that are included as a perk in the mansion sale is a Ferrari 599 GTO. Although it was hard to tell which year this Ferrari was rolled out, we do know that they were only on the market for six years until 2012.
The last one sported a V12 engine that delivered 670 hp and boasted maximum torque of 620 lb. ft. Its top speed was recorded at 208 mph and it was capable of accelerating from zero to 60 mph in a mere 3.35 seconds. With features that included a rear spoiler front splitter, vented hoods, 10-spoke-20-inch wheels and carbon-ceramic brakes, the 2011 GTO pricetag was as high as $450,000.
All Wraith, No Wrath
The other vehicle to tempt buyers is the Rolls Royce Wraith, a high-end coupe that has beneath its majestic exterior a 6.6-liter twin-turbocharged V12 engine that generates 624 hp and 605 lb. ft. of torque. The rear-drive Wraith which also operates with an eight-speed automatic transmission can go as fast as 155 mph and can jump from a standstill to 60 mph in roughly 4.3 seconds.
But to discerning Rolls Royce fans, luxury is just as important as performance and the four-seater Wraith still delivers a wide range of upholstery options from cloth to leather. Massaging bucket seats are available as is Wi-Fi, navigation, standard Bluetooth media streaming and crystal clear stereo sound via 18 speakers. While Supercar Blondie didn't elaborate on which year model was part of the deal, the Wraith can go for as high as $330,000.
And The Mansion?
This time, however, Supercar Blondie walked around the palatial premises absolutely gobsmacked over most of the attractions that included a champaign storage area filled with $100,000 worth of bubbly, a workout room, home theater system and—Blondie's favorite—a candy room. While we'd love to tell you more, last time we checked this wasn't Hothomes and our favorite auto host didn't answer to the moniker of Superhouse Blondie.
