The one of a kind Mercedes-Benz Arrow460-Granturismo can accommodate as many as 10 people. It was designed to combine the performance of a Mercedes Benz and showcases unique innovations. As you would expect the amenities are top notch including a high-quality audio system, a wine-cellar, ice making machine, a separate dressing room, nubuck leather, eucalyptus wood panelling, an enchanting restroom system, and windows that automatically tint according to the sunlight.

Although Mercedes provided the style, the impressive and spectacular vessel is a joint venture with Silver Arrows Marine to create an exclusive yacht. With two Yanmar diesel engines pumping out 760kw (860 hp) of power to propel this yacht boast top speeds of 40 knots (46 mph).

It’s safe to say that floating on water will never be the same for the rich and famous. Initially, only ten boats will be produced and only one person per country will be able to buy one. If you have the dough to spend, reservations are now being taken. Good luck!
