Cadillac One - The Beast, The US Presidential Car

Obamobile

As we know, this is the most valueable car in the world. Cadillac One - The Beast, is the US Pretidential Car, Barrack Obama. Or it will always be known as the Obamobile.
After being sworn as the 44th President of USA on 20th January 2009, President Barack Obama will have his first ride in the stretch limo, ‘THE BEAST’ to parades along Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington.
The bodywork is made up of a combination of dual-hardness steel, aluminium, titanium and ceramic material to break up possible projectiles.
The Secret Service said the 2009 limo would provide it with a "valuable asset" in providing its occupant with the highest level of protection.

As expected, they are not giving too much away about the car, but Nicholas Trotta, their Assistant Director for the Office of Protective Operations is quoted in their news release:

"Although many of the vehicle's security enhancements cannot be discussed, it is safe to say that this car's security and coded communications systems make it the most technologically advanced protection vehicle in the world."

Observers say the car is likely to include bullet proof glass, an armoured body, a separate oxygen supply, and a completely sealed interior to protect against a chemical attack.

Here’s the specs on the president's new limo:

• 18 feet long and 5’10″ high
• 6.5-liter diesel engine
• Max Speed: 60MPH, 0-60 in 15 seconds
• Fuel Consumption: 8 miles per gallon
• 8″ thick armor plated doors
• Reinforced 5″ thick steel plate lines the underside
• The tires are Kevlar-reinforced, which makes them shread- and puncture-resistent. If the tires do come off, the specially made steel rims can still enable the limo to escape
• All windows are tough enough to stop armor piercing bullets
• All windows are fixed except the drivers, which can roll down 3″. This allows him to pay tolls and talk with Secret Service agents
• Armory includes: Night vision cameras, shotguns and tear gas
• Medical kit includes: oxygen tanks and bottles of the presidents blood type for emergency transfusions
• Technology includes: A State-of-the-Art laptop, satellite phone, on-board Wi-Fi and a direct line to his Vice President.

The Beast is worth US $300,000 but it’s not available on the market. Cadillac spokesman David Caldwell said:

“What’s developed for this vehicle is unique and remains very private and secretive. Another nation could not call us and say, ‘let’s do that’.”
