[B](CNN)[/B] -- Cruising a luxurious superyacht with your own custom-built limousine onboard, ready for offshore jaunts, sounds like an experience fit only for royalty.Likewise, lounging in your very own salon designed by one of the biggest fashion houses in the world could perhaps come with a lifestyle limited to supermodels.But it need not be just for kings and queens or even leading fashionistas. The Sovereign superyacht can be anyone's, that is, if they have around $132m to spare.Sovereign is the brainchild of Gray Design who insist the finer details of the superyacht would please monarchs around the world.Gray Design specializes in high-end, luxury yachts that often incorporate designer cars. Sovereign is no exception with its sleek lines inspired by a limousine."We thought about a typical person on board one of these yachts and asked: how do they travel on land? Well limousine," says Gray Design CEO Eduard Gray. "It's a very unique concept in the yacht world."It's the most high performance 100 meter yacht ever Eduard Gray The matching custom-built car is an added extra, but regardless if the new owner requests one or not, there will be space on the yacht for a garage to store their wheels whilst they are at sea. If the owner's car are left at home, the garage becomes an ideal area to store all the boat's toys such as jet skis.Designers say production will start in the coming months. "The plans are so advanced that ship builders can bring production by the end of the year," says Gray. "It's not conceptual anymore; it's gone into the engineering stage."The design team is now in talks with potential owners about special modifications to suit their tastes, including working with fashion house Armani to fit out the interiors.Discussions are also underway to install a patch of grass out the back as a makeshift golfing green that can also be used for a play area for the potential owner's dog.At the back end of the yacht, is a circular infinity pool that surrounds a reinforced glass helipad. The latter also acts as a skylight for the room below. There's space for ten guest suites, in addition to the owner's quarters, as well as a cinema, gym, nightclub and library.But the Sovereign is not simply designed for luxury, she can reach speeds of up to 30 knots. "It's the most high performance 100 meter yacht ever," says Gray.[/release] [URL]http://edition.cnn.com/2011/12/02/travel/sovereign-luxury-superyacht/index.html?hpt=ieu_t3[/URL] Viola!

Even if I made $1 million a year, I would have to live much longer than I can to afford that. =(

I can't wait to hear the first report of Somalian pirates hijacking one and turning it into an aquatic fortress.

That thing looks fantastic.

$130 million? You could buy a dozen Russian fighter jets for that much.

[QUOTE=Contag;33582469]$130 million? You could buy a dozen Russian fighter jets for that much.[/QUOTE] or a 130 T72's!

I'm not going to lie. That thing is fucking ugly. I'd rather have the 130 T72's :v:

can i use the 135m to buy a bunch of smaller yachts and tie them all together into a giant floating barge and outfit different boats with different facilities like water processing, hydroponics, etc i'd much rather build a yacht city out of sup-bar yachts then one great yacht

That yacht looks like the kind of thing an asshole CEO would own.

[QUOTE=Psychokitten;33582815]That yacht looks like the kind of thing an asshole CEO would own.[/QUOTE] We have to store them somewhere right?

[QUOTE=-nesto-;33581924]A helipad inside a swimming pool... Awesome.[/QUOTE] And then someone lands... and all the water is gone.

Time to, quite literally, get money.

Wasn't this on top gear?

[QUOTE=dass;33583146]Wasn't this on top gear?[/QUOTE] It isn't being produced yet.

$134 million dollars...it's disgusting that we have individuals in this world with the wealth to afford that when a billion people can't get enough food or clean water. Also, am I the only one that looks at that and thinks "It would be cool to scuba dive on that thing when it sinks"?

I'd have an off-shore party with several girls in that thing
