Tuesday, December 23, 2008 1:07:11 PM

Just days after being robbed of $2 million in jewels, Paris Hilton has acquired a customized pink Bentley Continental GT.

The $200,000 car was purchased as a present - to herself.

Recession, what recession?

Hilton and her new reality show BFF Brittany Flickinger drove the car to celebrity shopping mecca Intuition, where they attracted a pack of paparazzi.

"I think when you're a little girl and you have the Barbie corvette you're like, 'I wish I had a car like this one.' So I think just being a fan of Barbie for so long."
