Gold-Plated Car Cleaners

This Product by Mitchell and King is the World's Most Expensive Car Wax

— March 26, 2013 — Autos
Mitchell and King have recently released the world's most expensive car wax, with an eye-popping price tag of $97,060. Although the company is known for its superior products, this luxury auto wax goes far beyond the regular product line. This lavish car care company is based in Scotland, and is already well-known for its outlandishly expensive car shampoo product that it released last year.

The bottle that houses the wax is 24 carat gold-plated, encrusted with Swarovski crystals and has a unique bespoke scent. The wax itself serves to create a gold shimmer when applied to the vehicle. Mitchell and King has only created one of these bottles so far, but it's up for sale to anyone who wants to add an extra $100,000 in value to their automobile.
