Plus, it&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/cadillac\">Cadillac<\/a> that&#8217;s supposed to be The Standard of the World, not <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/buick\">Buick<\/a>, the GM-owned automaker that Woods shills for. So then, just who is the <a href=\"http:\/\/garia.com\/\">Garia<\/a> meant for?<\/p>\n<p> Honestly, we have no idea. Perhaps well-to-do golfers looking to one-up their frenemies at the local country club? In any case, the Garia is supposedly &#8220;built to the highest standards of the automotive industry.&#8221; Included in its kit, says the manufacturer, is a double-wishbone front suspension, a drivetrain built by the company that produces Ducati gearboxes and aluminum stampings sourced from the same company that supplies <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/astonmartin\">Aston Martin<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/jaguar\">Jaguar<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/volvo\">Volvo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> Inside the comfy confines of the golf cart is a built-in refrigerator to keep your beverages nice and chilled along with a couple of strategically-located cupholders. Valmet Automotive, which assembles the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/boxster\">Porsche Boxster<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/cayman\">Cayman<\/a> along with the upcoming Fisker Karma, manufacturers the Garia. Starting in 2010, the manufacturer promises that the Garia will be street-legal in the States as a Low Speed Vehicle after being formally introduced at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/category\/geneva-motor-show\/\">Geneva Motor Show<\/a> in March. Price? $17,499 or 13,999 Euros, plus tax and delivery.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/garia-golf-cart\/low\/\">Garia Golf Cart<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/garia-golf-cart\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/garia-large_02-1260213655_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/garia-golf-cart\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/garia-large_26_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/garia-golf-cart\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/garia-large_27_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/garia-golf-cart\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/garia-large_14_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/garia-golf-cart\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/garia-large_08_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p> [Source: Garia]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/07\/meet-the-garia-the-worlds-most-exclusive-golf-cart\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>Meet Garia, the World&#8217;s Most Exclusive Golf Cart<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/07\/meet-the-garia-the-worlds-most-exclusive-golf-cart\/\">Meet Garia, the World&#8217;s Most Exclusive Golf Cart<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Mon, 07 Dec 2009 19:28:00 EST.
