9. Lexani G-77 Sky Master
This $1 million makeover based on a Ford F-550 produces what could only be called a private jet on wheels. The change lengthens the car to 33 feet and adds B7-level armouring all around. Inside are custom-built bar, a 65-inch LED TV, a Mac Mini computer station and Italian leather captain’s chairs. Run-flat tires, electronic door handles and a military-grade air filtration system are among the security elements. The air suspension mechanism of the car levels it automatically independent of passenger load or driving conditions.
10. The Presidential Beast 2.0
With an estimated cost of $15.8 million per, the most startling addition on our list is the most recent model of the U.S. Presidential state automobile. Designed on a special General Motors heavy-duty truck base, this car is the height of armoured vehicle modification. The 8-inch thick doors are weight-wise equivalent to those of a Boeing 757 aircraft. Comprising steel, aluminium, titanium, and ceramic elements, the armour can resist direct blows from RPGs and IEDs. During a national crisis, the sealed cabin can act as a mobile command centre and has its own oxygen source. The president’s blood type is carried in the vehicle, which also boasts a night vision system enabling it to travel without lighting. Its communication package, which consists of military-grade encrypted equipment and direct links to the Pentagon and Vice President’s vehicle, is maybe most remarkable.
