This $500,000 armored Mercedes limo has a smokescreen generator to help you escape attacks

Over the past 100 years, Mercedes-Benz has earned quite a reputation for building some of the toughest and most solidly engineered cars in the world. Sitting at the top of Mercedes' line up is the massive Mercedes-Maybach S600 limo.

The 5,300-lb. luxury sedan offers more performance and safety than most people in the world would every need. However, there are a select few who need more protection than crumple zones and a lot of airbags. They need to stop bombs and bullets. They need armor.

For these Mercedes-Maybach owners, Canada's INKAS Armored Vehicles has come up with a Maybach that can offer some "extra protection."

"It shows what happens when the best innovations in security, performance and technology merge to make a top-notch vehicle," said ret. Major-General David Fraser, INKAS's Armored Vehicle Manufacturing COO, in a statement.

"Based on the Mercedes-Maybach S600, it caters to customers who desire prestigious, high-class vehicles without compromising safety."

The cost? Just half million US dollars.
