But the length isn’t what makes “The American Dream” stands out from the crowd as it is also outfitted with one of the most outrageous amenities you will ever find in a car.
In addition to the luxury interiors, the stretched limo boasts of swimming pool with diving board, a king-sized water bed, a Jacuzzi as well as a landing pad for helicopter.

It was later acquired by New York’s Automotive Teaching Museum (Autoseum) in 2014, whose plans was to restore it to its original glory.
But those plans didn’t materialized amid county politics and budgetary changes, according to Mike Manning, director and president of Autoseum.
With lack of funding to restore it to its old glory, Autoseum resold it to Mike Dezer, owner of the Dezerland Park car museum and tourist attraction in Orlando, Florida.
Dezer is currently is using the expertise of Autoseum to restore “The American Dream”, a nearly done refurbishing efforts that began since 2019. According to the Dezerland website, the exterior restoration work is complete.
The world’s longest car “The American Dream” will be repainted and finished before the year runs out if things go as planned.
