Little boy says he wishes gold-plated car cost R2!
"I wish it was R2, I was going to buy it!"
In reality, there's nothing quite like seeing a modified car, especially for a little boy. It's like seeing a giant toy that you can play with.
Let's be honest. We all know many boys who are now men whose hearts still skip a beat when they see a souped-up car they admire. Perhaps this is why we find cars that don't quite 'fit in' on the roads; they are a physical manifestation of a young boy's dream that has finally materialised.
Sometimes, it's a bright green car with an elaborate paint job; this time, it was a golden car with a green undercarriage light.

A man, who we assume is the owner of the unusual car, videoed a group of kids admiring his car.
One in particular was very animated in his review and told the man that he wished the car was R2 so he could buy it for himself. He was highly excited about seeing the car and even held the R2 coin.
He then said that it's not R2 but "One thousand and billion"...

Kids have the most vivid imaginations, but what was interesting to acknowledge was how this little boy understood the car's value.
Usually, kids don't understand the value of high-value items such as cars, but this little man understood that the vehicle was not R2 but, in fact, much, much more than that. Check out some of the comments on the video.
- "Wait until he finds out it’s actually 700 DRILLION."
- "Bro has all his life savings in his hand and to risk it all."
- "It's the 2 Rand in his hand that kills me. boy was ready to strike a deal."
- "Me too "I wish it was R2 I was gonna buy it...FOR MY LIFE!"
