Guess what? The ugly, horrific Hamann Mi5Sion is a hit in Dubai. Who didn't see that coming? It's a well known fact that oil money will buy you anything. It's yet another well known fact that they will also buy things, as long as they are expensive.
You see, that kind of money doesn't work the way we're used to. When you have millions in the bank, you'll only buy the most expensive stuff, even though it doesn't bring you immediate satisfaction or if it doesn't deserve that kind of money.
It's the case with the Mi5Sion too. That car is ugly, no doubt about it. The less aggressive version of the M5 from Hamann looks 10 times better but yet the 'angry M5' as we like to call it is selling a lot better in Dubai.
It's because of the price tag. It's probably twice as much as the regular one and that's what makes it attractive, at least in the Middle East.
