Now this makes much more sense than the mini limo. I'd put a jacuzzi in it too.

Me too. A couple months ago I saw one with a bunch of high school kids riding to their prom.
Very unique looking to say the least.

A girl I used to see(until I stopped hanging out w/ her to be with my now ex-fiancee ) got one for her 18th birthday. I think she said it cost around $150,000. I told her to sell it since we hardly ever used it but her dad wouldnt let her

Those things are like 200 bucks to rent for a night considering their are say 4 or 5 other guys, girls/couples that are gonna split the cost but that is the inflatted rate for prom season, any other time a year if you go to rent a limo it's half the price maybe less, limo places around here have tons of them, H1, H2, Escalade, EXT's, Deville, S500, Excursions are pretty popular and of course Town Cars, the Luxury Buses are starting to become the cool thing to have at prom.

I worked in a limo place and those things after they cut a vehicle in half have no side impact protection whatsoever, the floor is actually the most structural part of the vehicle but the only thing on the sides is a 4 wall rectangular hollow iron beam, give or take it's usually about 10 feet or longer it is welded in 1 spot to the front of the car and another spot to the back of the car, it is basically what they attach everything to, seat belts, body panels, etc, ideally it's a very unsafe vehicle if it is ever hit.

The actually cost of the car is the sticker price of the original vehicle, plus all the cheap crap they can put in it to make it look expensive, add in last years electronics that are unloaded in truck loads and a common Town Car that rolls out of the shop after a week worth of work is an easy 100k new, they forget to tell you the things are only good for 60k, maybe 100k, things eat through tires, brakes, and everything just breaks and wears out on them in such a short time.

The custom limo shop I worked in got bought out but I see the original owner and he tells me when the 300c is not so back order their are tons of orders for the Hemi Chrysler

Yeah, you see them here in the D.C. area too. I checked a white one out last night at the gas pumps in my home town...Vienna, VA.
