Decided to turn this post into a discussion, what would you get driven around in if you were a military dictator? For me, it still stands that I’d have a black ESV Escalade, preferably with the Becker ESV treatment, because you might as well if you have unfiltered access to pretty much all the money in your respective country. BUT that would only be in a (somehwat) “capitalist” regime, if you will. If I was ruler of a communist or similarly idealized country, I’d go with a Hongqi, as I’d be making sure to be in China’s good books.

I know, I’ve thought about this way too much. I promise I have no plans to take over the world... yet .

A modernized S600 Grosser with new safety and performance components but the old body and interior. Preferably black with a tan interior. The plebs shall get out of my way.

Mercedes S600 or Citroen DS are the only real options here.

sm70- why not Duesenberg? > not for canada - australian in disguise 03/21/2016 at 18:18

Any era: Mercedes-Benz 600

New: Mercedes-Benz S600 Maybach (armored) or Rolls-Royce Phantom LWB (armored).

Anything else would be something lesser, and that simply wouldn’t do.

I know my country would be bullied into submission with this attitude, but we all know it’s the right answer nonetheless...

Nissan Q50 with a built forged and stroked VR38DETT, a built sequential GTR rear transaxle, and the GTR drivetrain. All of it upgraded to rally spec. Since it’s built, the boost will be cranked up to a healthy 1000 hp.

Cadillac CT6 Platinum 3.0TT.

Or, out of left field, an Infiniti Q70L 5.6.

Anything but a goddamn S-Class.

Yeah, not a fan either. But, you know, generally speaking this car would be awesome for a friendly tyrant.

ZiL 41047. Hopefully, such a public show of confidence in the industry of a potential major trading partner can help lead to favorable deals on large scale weapons purchases.
