Paceman that they designed for the Life Ball on May 25. In the auction during the event, the car raised €150,000 for HIV and AIDS research and prevention. It is a record high for Mini's Life Ball cars, and it is the 13th consecutive year that Mini has donated a car for the event.

“We are very pleased that the one-off MINI has sold for a record price and can thus make a special contribution to projects dedicated to fighting HIV/AIDS. The charity principle is an important part of the MINI brand, which enjoys a unique platform through this partnership with the Life Ball," said Ralf Schepull, Head of Mini Brand Communications

The Lifeball Mini by Cavalli led the costume parade into Vienna's City Hall Square driven by Cavalli and his wife. 

The car includes a special iridescent paint that varies between black and brown depending on the angle and the light. The roof features Cavalli's logo, and his signature is on the door. He also added his logo to the headrests and sun visors. The interior is covered in black leather, including on the dashboard, and it has gilded metal trim.
