Do you have an extra $80 million under the mattress just waiting to find the ultimate celebrity status vehicle?
Look no further than U.S. Submarines’ Phoenix 1000. The Phoenix 1000 is a 213 foot luxury submarine with a total interior area in excess of 5000 square feet. The significant volume, coupled with very large acrylic viewports, and the potential for relatively large open spaces, results in a vehicle as luxurious as the finest of motor yachts.
From the website:
Clearly, the Phoenix provides its owner with substantially more capability than a simple yacht – the opportunity to explore the depths of the world’s oceans in perfect comfort and safety. The Phoenix is capable of making trans-Atlantic crossings at 16 knots yet can dive along the route and explore the continental margins of some of the most fascinating waters on earth. And unlike surface yachts, when the water gets rough, the submarine can submerge into a perfectly smooth and quiet environment, continuing on toward its destination, providing a ride unsurpassed in quality-unequaled by the finest motor coach or the most luxurious executive aircraft.
All this can be yours for only 78 million dollars.
More pictures, and a video after the jump.
