This thing is insane! More pics and info can be found here.

Aside from its 426hp 6.1L V8 engine, the 2010 Brabus Mercedes-Benz Viano Lounge features a 32-inch LCD, two Sony VAIO laptops, a PlayStation 3, Nespresso machine, and even a Vertu Constellation phone. Unfortunately, this is just a concept...for now.

Tint the windows dark and no one will see you in there. The only person that'll be embarrassed is the driver

Why not just get a Winnebago motor home?

That's what I would do...

You still have to get out of it and show your face at some point.

Wear a surgical mask and covertly take it off when you're in the middle of crowd. No one's the wiser!
