"Don't you worry, don't fret. You already have plenty to worry about, and you're in such a state. I’ll repeat again - I will not tell you where you are. Well, Nika Gvaramia can best tell you where you are and how you are," Kaladze told the journalist.
Kaladze called journalist Lika Dzhankarashvili a "fool" in response to her comment that, according to car dealership information, the car's value is at least 500,000 euros.
"What is the value of 500 000? For fools like you, such a car can cost 500,000. I’m not insulting; I’m talking about reality.
As for the vehicles that I own, they are all listed in my declaration. [This car] was not mine then. Who is asking you about whose car it is? What are you interested in? Mind your own business. Look at the day you're having and the condition you're in!"
On August 20, Kakha Kaladze posted a photo on Instagram showing him apparently sitting in a Mercedes G-Class Cabriolet. The mayor of Tbilisi has not listed such a car in his most recent property declaration. According to the declaration, he owns a total of ten light cars and motor vehicles, including the most expensive one, a Porsche 911, valued at USD 150,000.
