"Last Word"-Warren Buffett's Wheels
Wednesday, September 13, 2006SUSIE GHARIB: And finally tonight, if you can`t walk in the footsteps of billionaire Warren Buffett, now you can drive in his car. Buffett`s 2001 Lincoln Town Car is up for sale on eBay. Bidding starts at 25 grand for the car, which has a light gold exterior and beige leather seats. The deal also includes Buffett`s personalized license plate with the word "thrifty" and an etched brass plaque with his signature. The proceeds of the auction will benefit Girls, Inc. It`s a youth service group that helps thousands of girls in the U.S. and Canada. And Paul, there`s one additional sweetener in this auction. When the winning bidder arrives at the Omaha airport to get the car, Buffett will personally pick up him or her and he`ll be wearing a chauffeur`s cap.
KANGAS: Well, if his driving record is as good as his investment history, those passengers are in good shape, that`s for sure.
GHARIB: That would be nice if they got some investment advice along the way, huh?
KANGAS: Why not?
