Christmas Leftovers: Candy-Cane Camry on eBay for $1.6M!

Among other outlandish claims, the seller says that this 190K-mile Camry is the first and only car ever to be wrapped in highly reflective tape and that it "reflects 900 candlepower."

And when one of those candy canes strike an overhead powerline...ZOT. The flashbang would blind and deafen everyone nearby. Hitting the line in reverse would be a little more entertaining. Darwin Award candidate, IMHO.

I bet the Narcs drug kits go off just being near it....because the guy making those claims has definately partaken of some copius quantities of controlled substances.
