When people want to buy a Jaguar in the UK they get assigned a special sales person who is incredibly knowledgeable. This was my friend Chris' job, he had access to things that a normal Jaguar sales person wouldn't have.
A Saudi Prince wanted to buy this new Jaguar that had been released, so they met up and spent a full day specing the Jaguar out. I believe the final price was something like 125k for the vehicle. Then came the decision for color, at the time the factory had 16 different color choices for this model. The next morning, the Saudi price is like, "I figured out an acceptable solution to my color dilemma," to which Chris goes "And what would that be?" the Saudi Prince goes "I'll order one of each color."
And my friend Chris is like, "well, of course." Saudi prince asked for his options, and was presented with ocean travel options to which the Prince said, "I want all 16 vehicles loaded on a plane, and flown to Saudi Arabia." That's the story on how 16 of the same Jaguar in different colors ended up being flown to Saudi Arabia all for around 2.5 million.
