Dwyane Wade Gets New $230,000 McLaren for His 30th Birthday… Parked on Top of His Pool

Dwayne Wade gets 2012 Mclaren MP4-12c for 30th Birthday

More Money, More Problems? Yeah right. Not for Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat.

For his 30th Birthday Party last night, Dwyane Wade received a surprise gift from one of his local luxury car dealership sponsors, The Collection. The dealership didn’t just give him any random car for free, they gave him a brand spankin’ new 2012 McLaren MP4-12C. I have no idea what those numbers after McLaren mean either, but I do know what the numbers on the price tag mean:  $230,000.

What a gift for a guy who is going to make over $14 million this year.  And the gift couldn’t have come at a better time, because Wade has been sidelined indefinitely with a sprained ankle.  That means he has all the time in the world to drive his new (free) quarter-million dollar car while still collecting on his million dollar paycheck.  When I sprain my ankle, they expect me to crutch in to work.  Where exactly are these so-called problems again?

For that car, you absolutely MUST get reserved parking… In fact, you might even need to reserve a few spots to make sure no one parks anywhere near you.  Or you can do it South Beach Style and airlift the car onto a platform in the middle of the pool inside Dwyane Wade’s house and park it there.  If the free $230,000 car wasn’t a big enough surprise for the Miami Heat superstar, I’m sure the park-job on of his pool did the trick.

Yes, they parked a car worth more than some peoples homes on top of water.  Unbelievable.  Gotta love South Beach.
