Bespoke RV hides sports car in mobile garage



It costs a whopping $1.75 million If pop-up rooftop tents, modular campers, and teardrop trailers all seem too tiny to fit everything you want to take to camp, we?ve got an over-the-top solution. Behold the Volkner Mobil Performance S: A motorhome so large you can bring everything and the kitchen sink. Literally.
Made in Germany, the 40-foot Performance S is the ultimate luxury RV and it?s so big that we might as well call it a bus. The most extravagant amenity on this behemoth of a camper is the central garage that?s large enough to hold a Porsche, Ferrari, or a two-door Mercedes.

The car is carefully placed into the middle garage at the push of a button with an electrohydraulic lift that?s probably nicer than most elevators. As one might expect for the $1.75 million price tag, the Performance S is completely customizable. But standard features include a wall that slides out to provide extra space, plenty of security cameras, and a state-of-the-art entertainment system. Fully equipped kitchens and multiple sleeping areas are a given, and the expensive wood and leather finishes of the RV look more like a high-end yacht rather than something you might park next to a porta-potty. You?d never use a strange bathroom, however, thanks to the motorhome?s giant stand-up shower, separate toilet, and sink with plenty of counter space.
Volkner began building the car-carrying Performance S in 2006 and has co...
