handling, believe it or not, is probably pretty good. no where near the weight capacity of that chassis. parking though? you got a sarcastic point there. parking my full size pick up can be a pain in the arse, much less that behemoth!

Yeah, handles like an 18 wheeler with the stiff ride to boot even with an air ride.. and only can be driven on the highway... LOL
No parking at the local packed walmart with that one.. so i'll just keep my current SUV
still looks cool, but very unpractical

So what? God Bless Shaq.

I'd do it too if I had the coin. I'm just saying the thing is ridiculous! I guess it's worth well over 1/4 of a mil.

Those versions run on average of 250K, as noted above. I have no idea how much that one is with all of the accesories.

If it wasn't raised so un-naturally high (even for that behemoth) and those gas tanks - it wouldnt look too bad.

I can't throw stones at the guy, had I an outragious amount of cash bein thrown my way every single day of 'work'.. well, lets just say my audio systems / museum would be quite impressive... in a sick way.

Yeah, see that's what I'm curious about. My Wife's work vehicle is an F-350 that cost close to $300K. If the 650 starts at $250K, where the hell is the upper limit?

If I had the coin I'd have one, believe me Shaq is not buying sh** at Walmart so no worries, he probably doesn't even do his own shopping. Don't hate the playa hate the game.

Can you imagine him when he does his cop duty after his B-ball days are done pulling up to a crime scene, Miami Vice style in that thing.

I know an ambulance on that chassis is about 125grand. Damn james, is the wife driving around with the optional Missile Launcher package?

I have an F-350 for our company pick-up and it cost nowhere near that. What the hell is on their truck?

The variables involved in this one are probably huge. I would doubt anything under the hood is stock.

All I know is that if I had his type of money, I'd have a little more taste in cars. I know he's got sports cars, but I'd be going for something extremely rare and customized to fit the 7 foot whatever frame he has.

That's wicked. But I agree with bknauss. I'd set my sights on a McLaren F1 GTR, Mercedes CLK-GTR, original Shelby Cobra, etc. I know, the Cobra, while really expensive, doesn't command as high a price as the other two. But still. It'd be on my list.

Of course if you were 7'2" and 350 lbs, you couldn't fit in any of the cars listed...
