Without trying very hard... $64k in options, on a $63k car. Porsche is easy mode for this game.

Yeah, earlier this week I managed to load up a base Boxter with around 75.000 of options.

You can get a €78,000 Cayenne S with €104,000 in Europe... Easy mode indeed.

You can option a V6 Cayenne that starts around $50k to well over $140k

I like that game:

Kinja'd!!!

That's an Audi Allroad Bi-TDI (313hp).
Base price: 65 110€
Options: 69 455€

And yes, that adds up to 134 500€ (about 150 000$ excl. VAT) for a tarted up A6.

The base CLA more than doubles in price from 29,999 to over 62,000. The CLA 45 AMG comes close, going from 47,500 to 82,300.

I imagine the Escalade is pretty intense, but Cadillac's website configurator doesn't work so I can't mess with it.

This is at least an A6 with a usable engine... What about a tarted up 2 door(!) VW Polo for nearly $73k?

Kinja'd!!!

Base price €30k / $41,5k
Options €23,5k / $31,8k

Plus, the model isn't the base model for the 1.4L 140hp engine. The A1 could be had with this engine for less than €22k / $30k...

Haha the worst thing is that some people actually buy those cars with that many options.

I remember being at the Brussels airport and seeing a display A1 with a sticker price of 30+ k€. Then I realized it was a 90hp TDI, with no leather or GPS and the 5-speed manual. Crazy.

Yeah, over here in Germany, they offer them at worse (i.e. more expensive) leasing conditions than a 1 series with bigger engine, it's ridiculous! I don't see any reason whatsoever to get this car...

Got another one, managed to put $40K worth of accessories and options on a poor GLK350. Still looks like a bodykit on a last-gen Forester.

Kinja'd!!!

EDIT: changed 'poot' to poor, may have been funnier that way though.

Haha, they have a Cayman S at the Detroit show with this many options. Even as someone who knows how many options you can load onto a Porsche, seeing a near 130K sticker on a Cayman/Boxster nearly knocked me over.
