When “Back to the Future” first came out in the mid-’80s, it turned the popular but flawed DeLorean from an interesting futuristic car into a recognizable superstar. Apparently, someone chose to capitalize on this fame and turned this interesting vehicle into a fully functional limo.
Unfortunately, just like its original version, this car can’t go back in time. Not even when hit by lightning at 88 miles per hour. It can, however, fit six giggling teenagers perplexed by its vintage rising doors. While it appears best suited as a Universal Pictures ride, this stretched-out DeLorean is privately owned by Chicago car enthusiast, Rich Weisensel.
All Electric Limo
You can always trust Japanese engineers to come up with some of the world’s most quirky and interesting inventions. In 2003, students at Keio University managed to create one of (if not the) world’s first all-electric fully-functional limousines. This car helps you and your friends get around in style, while also helping to save the environment by reducing auto pollution.
The All-Electric Limo featured a lithium battery and could reach an unbelievable top speed of 230 miles per hour, similar to what you’d find in some of the world’s fastest Formula One vehicles. It might just be the fastest limo on our list, which just goes to show that speed, style, and performance can often go hand-in-hand with environmentally friendly machines.
Hummer Limo
Hummers received one of the most terrible reputations in recent years when the company tried to turn them into regular, everyday vehicles. These massive trucks and SUVs are mostly used by the military, thanks to their off-road abilities and highly fortified build. Our guess is that someone thought “if the two-seat version failed, why not try to make a twelve seat instead?”
The Hummer Limo is already one of the most recognizable and attention-grabbing vehicles on the road, but this limo’s creators took the extra step of making it pink as well. It sports the perfect party equipment, from a full bar to a long and comfortable dance floor.
Royal Toyota Century Limo
Toyota has been the pride of the Japanese nation for a long time. It recently became the tenth highest-grossing company in the world, which is why it was chosen as the government’s official vehicle. The Royal Toyota Century Limo is a massive, bulletproof car that is used to drive around high-profile political figures.
These highly technological cars have been cited as costing well over half a million dollars. They’re fast, extremely durable, and would make any politicians feel comfortable and safe at the same time. The United States chose Cadillac for its national government vehicles, but in our opinion, they don’t hold a candle to these babies, or any other stretched-out masterpiece for that matter.
Tall H2 Hummer Limo
If you have an H2 Hummer, how are you possibly able to make it even bigger and better than before? Well, we can think of a couple of ways, and they’re all inspired by this photo. First, you take it and stretch it into the length of a limo, or maybe an RV, and then you make it higher.
Like, twice as high. If you had this vehicle, you could probably live inside it for weeks and never need to come out. Of course, you have to give yourself half a mile to take a turn, but everything has its downsides.
