MOSCOW, April 3 (RIA Novosti) - A Porsche 911 plated
with real gold and worth an estimated $600,000 was stolen on
Friday afternoon in the southeast of Moscow, a police source
said.
The officer said that the owner of the exclusive vehicle
had decided to sell the car and found a client via the
Internet. The client arrived to take a look at the "Golden
Porsche" and after two laps of test drive on a parking lot near
the Volgogradskoye highway sped off in an unknown direction.

of real gold to upgrade his car, which had an initial price of
$120,000.
