I'm still trying to find the right words for this....something along the lines of HOLY #$%#$%$%##$!! Interpret that any way you want :D

Pretty much covers it. :eek:

It's a good thing I'm typing this, because I'm drooling too much to speak.

Wow.

"Buy a superyacht get one supercar free!" ..yup, that pretty much sums it up. :P

It's an interesting idea, but tbh I'd rather get a real supercar..you know, one that has its merits based on performance, not just matching my crazy yacht...but then I wouldn't want a $25 million yacht either, so I'm clearly not their target audience...to put it lightly. -_^

[Luke122]

I dont know, that looks pretty supercarish and real to me! V12 with 880hp, 370kmh? What more did you want?! :D

That's all bragging rights son. :D

Personally, I'm a big fan of the Sunseeker yachts.. the Predator in particular. Cheaper than this one, but still amazing.

Proven performance for one. Who's making the car? Who's designing the internals? If I'm getting a supercar, I want a supercar, not just something that looks pretty and matches my yacht. ...that's what hypercars are for. :P

[Luke122]

Swedes. :D

[x88x]

Swedes. :D

Hmmm, Volvo Swedes or Kounigsegg Swedes? ;)

Wheres the superpad for the superheli?

Actually, you make a good point. Maybe helicopters aren't as popular with the super rich as they used to be?

[BuzzKillington]

25 million seems *cough* cheap to be able to own two one of a kind items of that caliber considering the veyron cost $384 million for research and development alone.

Yes, but you can buy a Veyron for 'only' a couple million. I'm sure it took much more than $25 million in R&D/design/etc to build this thing.

aw heck guys. We're modders. Let's just build our own, shall we?

Hahahaha, I remember when they had that RV (the one with the car) on Top Gear. Awesome. And I can see the final fulfillment of Richard Hammond's dream on #9. :P

[chaksq]

Note to self: when I become rich incorporate an automobile garage into my custom yacht.

[Luke122]

That amphibious RV is AWESOME.

1 H2OEX & 2 HYDRA SPYDERs please!

Even though the Spyder looks like a Miata on steroids, I think it'd be on my top 5 list for cars to purchase after winning the lotto. That thing is awesome.

...could you IMAGINE the looks you'd get pulling a lotus up from under water onto shore!? That's some james bond crap right there!

[Diamon]

I'd rather get one of these (note that this includes a superpad to use with your superheli AND a hangar to store any eventual supercars and/or superplanes):

Unfortunately my local retailer didn't have any in stock :(

[x88x]

Hahaha, nice. I think I would rather have the Spyder though..the sQuba looks interesting but it looks like it wouldn't work very well on the water...or actually, in the water, for that matter. Or maybe they were just going really slow in the video, idk.

EDIT:@Diamon
lol. I think you'd need a few more crew than would fit in the OP too. ;) For the actual ship though, check with some cash-strapped old Soviet-bloc countries, they might have something.. :whistler:

[artoodeeto]

I'll take one of these please:

Not the death star though. I can't pick up chicks in something that resembles a bowling ball with a speaker cone on one hemisphere.

Is that even real? The boat looks photoshopped.

The OP or the Super Star Destroyer? :P Yes, the OP is a computer render, none have been built as of the writing of the article.

[TheGreatSatan]

OK, I was hoping I wasn't wrong
