Louis Vuitton, Please Sue This Guy for His Hideous Car

blendnewyork — Tue, 12 May 2009 22:05:14 +0000

One of Germany’s most high-profile nightclub owners, Prince Marcus von Anhalt, owns this Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe, which he pimped, as they say, with Takashi Murakami’s Louis Vuitton monogram. Prince Marcus uses the car — and possibly the classy ladies draped over it — to promote the Royal Race, “a Gumball 3000-style exotic auto rally,” whatever that means. If Britney Spears can’t get away with pimping rides in Louis Vuitton monogram, this guy shouldn’t either
