For $500, you can buy a lot of things, and if you're into enjoying your music, that amount will net you a fancy set of new headphones from Bowers & Wilkins and...Maserati->ke51?

You read that right; the Italian automaker is tying up with one of the most well-known headphones brands in the world. The special edition set, called the P5 Maserati Edition Mobile Hi-Fi Headphones is more than just a fancy fashion accessory; it's got some sick specifications that should justify the insane price tag attached to it.

Bowers & Wilkins took advantage of the setting up the P5 to perform as advertised, thanks to its award-winning technology that features ultra-linear neodymium magnets and highly optimized Mylar diaphragms. For a comfortable and luxurious fit, Maserati was in charge of dressing up the headphones with fine-grain natural leather to go with a deep blue shade and the iconic Maserati Trident emblem incorporated on the sides of the ear cups.

The headphones really fit the lifestyle of those who enjoy their luxury->ke505 accessories. It's actual retail price is £330, which is about $540 based on current exchange rates.
