Luxury Toys: Volume 2 (English, German and French Edition) Hardcover – July 15, 2012

I liked the book, but the cover is not the same that I received, and it happened with another luxury toys book I ordered different cover then I purchased but not from same place

Entertaining and interesting

And the person really has enjoyed looking at this book. Great gift for a male...or even a female who is into machines.

This is a great coffee table book. It has some of the coolest gadgets, automobiles, boats, planes, etc. Great buy!

This item was purchased as a gift for a friend who has everything. Can't wait to see what he gets next!

What on earth do you say about these luxury items? If you are super rich, you may purchase one of these items for the man or woman in your life, or treat yourself to a Lamborghini, one of sixteen autos included and a real steal for only $279,000, not the most expensive by any means. That distinction goes to the Bugatti for a mere $2,580,000. Since you are saving so much on the Lamborghini-- I chose it because I like the way the word rolls off your tongue-- why not pick up for only $13,149 a Can-Am Offroad jeep for all the fun trail rides as well. The rest of us sublunary types will have to be content with this super coffee-table tome from teNeues publishers that makes the Neiman-Marcus Christmas publication look like something from Sears in comparison.In addition to these automobiles, there are watches-- one is described as "a watch that's meant to be watched," phones, a pen designed from Sylvester Stallone's film "The Expendables," motorcycles, motorboats, seven airplanes, golf clubs, pool tables, a backgammon/poker set that can be "decked out with exotic leathers such as alligator, stingray and ostrich," along with precious metals and "your family's coat of arms," a 24-karat gold plated ONEDOF turntable, a TV chaise longue, "large enough for up to three people, the swivel-base, patent leather chaise curls over reclining heads, providing an up-close-and personal view of a bright, securely mounted LCD screen," among many other baubles.I wonder, however, how many classical pianists would choose the K 208 Pegasus piano manufactured by Schimmel, if given a choice, over the standard beautiful state-of-the-art grand pianos with their familiar shape? This piano "shuns corners for a curvaceous, futuristic form. The stool is integrated into the piano, and an electrically driven lift mechanism silently raises and lowers the piano's top." On the other hand, this piano might speak to a jazz musician.This beautiful book, as you would expect, is full of one and two page photographs in glorious color.

No matter what your interests, Luxury Toys Vol. 2 contains the most mesmerizing "toys" to date. From fashion items to cars, jets, and yachts, sports gear to high-tech novelties and beautiful items for the home--you name it.The best thing about this book is that it has something for everyone (a wonderful addition to my coffee table!). What catches my eye the most are the thematic toys. Ever seen the rock crystal bathub designed by Baldi?There's also a lot of futuristic elements (which are my favorite!) to some of these toys. I like the uniquely-designed K208 Pegasus Piano, the slick Infinitas by Schöpfer Yachts, and the Evolve Xenon motorcycle the best...Things I'd love to own, but also love to look at ☺If you have a certain passion, or simply love photography and aesthetic design, I highly recommend this book. It's not only pleasing to the eye, but each toy comes with complete with a little story!
