OT: Ferrari 456 Estate

Is this the family's dream car?
According to the article, there's only 7 of these in the world and the Sultan of Brunei has 6 of them. The last one is for sale by a firm in the UK.

maybe he has an extended family?? but then what's the reason for him to own 5000 cars. Maybe he was thinking of providing everyone in his country a better form of public transportation
