You kidding me..? Look close, that Maybach is used. Look at the inner fender liners/bumper. All dirty/muddy.

It also needs a detail really bad. I wouldn't be supprised if it wasn't Diddy's hand-me-down.






*edit*

Me at 16 with my first car: 1976 GMC 3/4 ton pickup I bought from my grandfather, wish I still had it.

and if you're thinking he's gonna crash, send him to like private driving classes, i'm sure diddy can afford two weeks at the M or AMG school.

Those people should stop and think "what was the most expensive thing I've received for my 16th bday?" and they will realize that a used Veyron is probably 1000x more expensive than anything they've ever gotten.

If Diddy really did lease that car, then it's all the more reason that he's smart with his money. That in essence pretty much proves my point. Leasing a Maybach isn't cheap either. Hell I knew a guy that leased an Aston Martin DBS for about $5k or so a month so I can only guess that a Maybach will cost quite a bit more. Now if Diddy went and bought his son a Honda or Toyota, THEN that's a different story.
Sure, to us, it's not being cheap. We'll take used Civics all day if people gave them to us for free. But he's a celeb with hundreds of millions. Beyonce, Jay-Z, Shaq, Oprah, and some rappers gave away new RR Phantoms for birthdays. Celebs like to show off how rich they are and like to throw money around. So if P. Diddy gave his son something used and people knew about it, I'm sure he will get it from his peers.

It looks used. Probably rented it for the MTV Sweet 16 show.

I got the keys to a '93 Blazer with 87k miles.

At least the kid donated his $10k check to charity.

1986 Monte Carlo V6 in 1996 (cost my parents $1200). This was much better than the banana yellow 1978 Ford LTD I had been working on. At least it ran without having to use both feet. Hehehe.
