Montreal Limo has a hot Lincoln Navigator in store for our exotic loving customers. What do other companies have around the globe? Lets check:

BMW Limo

This is a hot beemer limo. It looks like an SUV, either the X3 or X5. X3 has a more feminine look to it, so it cant be it. The front is too inclined for the X5, so this must be either a 3 or an M3. They must’ve modified it pretty badly. Looking at the back - it has one from X3 or X5. What’s your guess?

Land Rover Limo

Been looking for that one for a while. The authority in luxury SUV, Land Rover Limo. We cant see the entire vehicle, but assure this guy rides like a convict. Daring, in your face yet smooth….

Rolls Roys Limo

We did coverage of Rolls Roys, but it wasn’t a limo. This gentleman is all the company a Groom and Bride need. Got $$$ written all over it. Care for a club ride? You gotta follow a rule - if you’re making less than a million per year don’t ride it!

Chrysler Limousine

Hottest GM ride. Ferrari like doors and a load of bling on the inside. You got prom? Wedding? This new York beast slices through traffic like bullet through flesh. Let the worries go and chilax.

The Cowboy Limo

Mooooo. Give me some milk.

Hollywood stars in privacy panic after limo firm admits taping them

STARS including Uma Thurman and Britney Spears were secretly videotaped by their chauffeurs, it has been revealed. One of the biggest limousine service firms in New York have admitted taping a host of celebrities as they were driven through Manhattan. Now, the stars fear their private conversations, either with fellow passengers or while on mobile phones, could be leaked. A source said: “There is a list of celebrities fearing the worst. “No one knows how far back the tapes go but they are all extremely concerned about what they show and, more importantly, what can be heard.- Daily Record

What would be the cause of this foolish act? Celebrities are best limousine customers. Long bookings and almost no preference for rates. New York Limo company has just done suicide in this business sector and will loose a lot.

On the other hand, some guys were just dorking around… “Hey man, let’s tape them… Yea dude this is youtube material…”

If you’re planning star transportation in Montreal, consider Montreal Limo. Privacy guaranteed. Check the main site.

Here’s a line up of beautiful Porsche limos and the all new 4 door Porsche Panamera.

Porsche Cayenne has become the classic limousine. In fact, 95% of all Porsche limos are made from Cayenne. But Cayenne is not pure Porsche. It has VW motor and shares some components with VW Torque. Regardless, you have to agree - it still looks good.

This is a pure Porsche 911 limo. The interior is a bit old, because the model is from the 80s, but it still got that magical vibe no other limo has - it’s pure race car. This baby is located in the states. Too bad we don’t have one.

This is another Porsche 911 limousine.

New Porsche Panamera

The Porsche Panamera is a four-door, four-seat sedan, currently in design stage, set to be launched in 2009.It will be front-engined and rear wheel drive and powered by a modified version of the 4.5 L V-8 found in the Cayenne, equipped with the FSI system as used by Volkswagen (Porsche and Volkswagen collaborated on the Cayenne/Touareg sport utility vehicle platform). Base spec models will be engineered with a 3.6 liter V-6 found in the 2008 facelifted Cayenne, and there is even a hybrid version[3] in the pipeline. Rumors suggest that the V-10 engine from Porsche’s limited-run Carrera GT supercar may be offered as well, although this is still extremely unlikely given the expense of manufacturing the engine and that Porsche does not currently have a facility capable of producing a suitable number of the V-10 engines per year. A rumor is also around that the V-12 diesel from the Audi Q7 could make it into the Panamera. - Wikipedia

Looks nice (car is camouflaged from journalists to hide final identity):

Concepts.

And another Panamera concept.

I take one this will be at least $100.000, so it’s time to start saving!

In this article we tackle some limos. Lets start with:

Redneck Limo

This guy is having fun. Not only he extended that car, he made it an SUV limo. Perfect if you live outside the city and need to pick up dates where there are no roads!

Old Devil Limo

This red devil is too beautiful. It’s the model from the 60s and it looks tempting as a limo with the new paint job. Is this in service or purely a private car? There would be many enthusiasts who would like to get a ride in one of those, even for $250-$300 an hour.

Autobahn Limousine

German Engineering. Luxury Interior. Smooth lines, build through heart and soul. Over 500 horsepower on a 3.4, V8 Engine. Meet, the genius of engineering. All that limousines wish to be. The new… VW Autobahn. Dare to try, true inspiration of art and power, blended into a undeniable beauty, that will captivate all hearts that come in touch with it.

Lada Limousine

Lada Limo! Russian cab driver modified his Lada and made it a limo!

Lady Limo

Can hardly imagine an exec walking out of this stretch, with a laptop, briefcase and busy schedule. More like a lady with handful of bags from Banana Republic. Not a car a for prom either. A girls get together, but not a prom, nor a wedding. The paint job messed the limo up! Wipe it clean!

Limo No More - Crashed

Here’s a snapshot of how a crashed limo looks like. Not pretty and its got snow all over it. Like it or not - but people love crashes, as long as they’re not in one. Always want to get a good close look when there’s traffic accident and you’re going 5km/hr.

That’s all the limos for today:
