You don't...

Who ever is writing these articles and talking to people about this SLR is either wrong or being fed mis-information. I am willing to bet it is "painted" Chrome...

This site hardly looks to be a 100% credible source. Three lines of text claiming it's chrome plated with no further details or explanation...

The BMW cost about $30,000 to do, but that was 4 years ago when it was a new process and they took the car apart down to the last bolt and painted the entire uni-body inside and out. It's even chrome underneath and behind the dash and all other areas you will never see.

Don't get so down on yourself. People don't realize it, but the lives of these millionaires/billionaires are extremely confusing, constant, and relentless. If given the option I'd rather make $250K a year, leave my work at work in my one nice car go home to my one nice house to my loving family play catch with the kids, sleep in the same bed with the same wife seeing a dog that actually knows who I am and return to my same stable job in the morning. And on vacations, I can actually turn my cell phone off.

Thats the life I'd rather live over these multi-millionaires who sometimes forget where they are or what day it is and can't remember what a moment alone is like.

Wow, thread hijack.
