Chairman of Mahindra Group, Anand Mahindra is quite active on social media. He keeps sharing his opinion pertaining to various things on social media. He has shared a video of a car, which is being debated on social media. The caption of this video reads "Indian-American has a Ferrari made with pure gold." This video had previously appeared on social media in early 2018.

Sharing the video on Twitter, Anand Mahindra wrote, "I don't know why is this video going viral on social media. In reality, it's a lesson that even if you are rich, you don't spend your money this way."

Over 200,000 views in 24 hours
The video shows a man publicly showing off an Italian luxury sports car and a crowd gathered around it. People are clicking pictures and shooting videos of this super expensive car. Two men are seen seated in this video. One of the people in the crowd calls it a Ferrari, made with pure gold.

Anand Mahindra's post has more than 200,000 views and 7,000 likes, all in a span of almost 24 hours. This post was in support of Mahindra's point, that gold plating a car is a wasteful spending. However, some social media users do not agree with him.

These cars are a trend in some parts of the world

Gold plating of cars is a common practice among the wealthy. A number of these gold-plated cars have been sighted in Dubai, where they are considered as symbol of fashion and elegance. However, in most cases, it is not pure gold, but a vinyl coating of gold, making the cars look as if they are made with pure gold.
