Ahmadinejad's Old Car Sells for $2.5 Million
Back in January, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's badass 1977 Peugeot 504 went up on the auction block to benefit disabled people in Tehran. Well, it sold! For $2.5 million. Who was the highest bidder? According to AFP:
"My client bought the car because of a personal interest in President Ahmadinejad and his spirit of anti-arrogance and anti-Zionism," said lawyer Mahmoud Esari, who acted for the firm that bought the car.
Sounds about right. A full gallery of pictures can be seen on the auction's official website.
