M400 Skycar
Neiman Marcus Group Inc. has the perfect holiday gift for you: A fuel-efficient, $3.5 million Skycar that flies 350 miles per hour and burns environmentally friendly alcohol.

The M400 Skycar prototype is a vertical takeoff and landing aircraft that gets 21 miles per gallon and is designed to be “as safe, affordable and easy to use as an automobile.

“A limited number of M400s is expected to be available within the next three years, but you can purchase the actual prototype for yourself or your favorite commuter now,” Neiman Marcus said in the catalog.

Note: Buyers must clear regulatory requirements, including International Traffic in Arms Regulations and Federal Aviation Administration authorization.

Private Elton John Concert
For $1.5 million, you and 500 close friends can enjoy an intimate piano concert by Elton John while helping a good cause. The money goes to John’s AIDS foundation.

Misc.
Females can opt for a jewelry collection for $1.2 million only.

For the art lovers there is a “levitating sculpture” that uses an invisible magnetic wave to suspend an oval-shaped aluminum sculpture with no visible means of support.

Sports fans can go for the $65,000 IndyCar race simulator. For an extra $10,000, they will throw in a “race hospitality package” for the famed Indianapolis 500, including pit access, four nights’ hotel and autographed merchandise. Only five hospitality packages are available.

For the environmentalist who cannot afford a M400 Skycar, Neiman Marcus offers a special-edition 2007 Lexus GS 450h luxury hybrid sedan for only $65,000. Only 75 will be made, with exclusive Crystalline Ice exterior paint.

Now if only I could get a million to spare.
