On the one hand, you could buy the car and restore it with minimal effort (but not cheap), but given what’s included in the sale, we think the new owner won’t go that route, and along with the car – which has been preserved in movie condition – the winning bidder will get Jordan Belfort costume, director’s chair and wooden board signed by Scorsese, DiCaprio and everyone’s favorite Barbie, Margot Robbie, two crew jackets and two DVDs are also included.

The car will be up for auction in Abu Dhabi on November 25, but if you’d rather have a piece of Autobiologia from the film that you can drive, an undamaged stunt car, likely to fetch similar money, will go to RM Sotheby’s Luxury Week auction, in the Big Apple in December 8.
