Meet the Limo-Jet, a ridiculous party bus that's — you guessed it — part limousine and part private jet.
Also known as the "Learmousine," it's a working, driving bus based around a Learjet fuselage. It'll be up for grabs at Mecum Auctions' Indy 2020 event in June, should the auction go on as scheduled.
The Limo-Jet was built by Chicago-based Exotic Coach.
It took 40,000 work hours and two years of research and development to create.
To make the jet cabin drivable, a custom steel frame had to be built ...
... along with custom steering, suspension, and electrical systems.
The Limo-Jet is powered by a 400-horsepower, 8.1-liter V8 that's found in some Chevrolet trucks.
Excessive and flashy in every way, the Limo-Jet has a candy-apple-red paint job ...
... and rides on custom, red-and-black, 28-inch wheels.
Driver visibility likely isn't great, but there are four screens to see all of the blind spots.
The cockpit also has a racing-style bucket seat and harness ...
... and plane-style toggle controls on the ceiling.
Those switches control lots of interior and exterior features, including the 17,000-watt speaker system ...
... and the 42-inch flat-screen TV.
The Limo-Jet has shed its wings, but comes with massive speakers that can play jet-engine noises.
The Limo-Jet's interior seats 18 and sports all the standard party-bus features ...
... an infinity floor ...
... diamond-stitched leather seats ...
... and plenty of colorful lights.
The Limo-Jet is technically street legal, should anyone want to try to maneuver it ...
... but the seller is also including a 44-foot trailer ...
... and a Chevrolet 2500 HD pickup to tow it.
At 42 feet long and eight feet wide, the Limo-Jet is likely a bit too unwieldy for city streets ...
... but the tail fin can fold if the vehicle ever needs to squeeze into a tight space.
Mecum hasn't set a price estimate for the flashy ride, but it's safe to say it won't come cheap.
