Scott Disick buys chrome-plated Audi R8 worth $300K

Famously cocky reality TV star Scott Disick has purchased a $250,000 luxury sports car. And that’s before he plated it with chrome. UK’s Daily Mail reported that the boyfriend of Kourtney Kardashian is now the very proud owner of a chrome-plated Audi R8.
The car proved to be the envy of the whole Kardashian family. Kim Kardashian was all too happy to take a turn behind the wheel. She posted several photos of her posing in the Audi R8 on Twitter yesterday.
‘Scott’s sick new car! Chrome!’ Kim Kardashian cooed. ‘Who needs a mirror when I’m driving @scottdisick’s car!?!’
Certainly not Scott Disick, who retweeted her message and agreed: ‘No need.’
Kardashian matriarch Kris Jenner also tweeted her own photo and opinion. ’Why would @KimKardashian need a mirror when she has @ScottDisick ‘s Batmobile???? #reflection.’
An Audi R8 costs around $250,000. The chrome wrap costs an additional, estimated $60K. Scott Disick also splashed out on 20″ gloss black Freddo-M wheels from the Monoleggera Series. The work was done by Calabasas Luxury Motorcars.
The Audi is just the latest in an automotive shopping spree. Scott Disick recently snapped up a matte black Range Rover in February, which he also customized by having a ‘full onyx body kit’ and ’24 Forgiato wheels’ added. (According to the Calabasas Luxury Motorcars’ Facebook page, it appears Disick is already selling it again for $64,995.) He’s also been spotted in a Rolls Royce Phantom and a grey Lamborghini Murcielago.
Kardashian fans will remember that Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick quarreled in an episode of ‘Kourtney & Kim Take New York’ when he splurged on a Rolls Royce Ghost (which cost almost as much as the Audi R8) just to wow business clients.
