High Life: You Know Something is Wrong When You Need to Ask if Your New Cadillac Escalade Comes With Bullet Proof Armor

Who said that the life of a billionaire is easy! There are so many things to worry about. Will your trophy wife start making goofy eyes at the pool cleaning guy? Will someone swipe your prized Any Warhol? And will you spot a suspicious SUV following your new Cadillac Escalade on your Sunday drive to the polo grounds?

As Robb reports, the good news is that a version of the new Cadillac Escalade comes with bullet proof armor and a smoke screen!

This Bonkers Cadillac Escalade Has Bulletproof Armor and a Smoke Screen

Let’s face it. With all that armor, the car looks ridiculous. But if you wonder whether all those screwed limited partners are harboring ill feelings towards you, they may not seem so unreasonable.

This new monster is called the “Arsenal”.

“The Arsenal looks plenty rugged, but if you want to up its toughness there’s an optional Military Edition package. The highlights of the specs are its bulletproof armor and glass, but they’re just the start. Other features include steel ram bumpers, electrified door handles, pepper spray dispensers, strobe lights, and, because this is Rezvani we’re talking about, a smoke screen. The package also includes an upgraded suspension and run-flat all-terrain tires. If that’s somehow not enough—and for some doomsday preppers it might not be—you can also opt for stronger armor that can stop assault rifle fire and explosive device detection.”

Back in the day, I had the opportunity to meet a young lady who turned out to be the daughter of a Central American dictator. She was quite attractive, but I felt a bit uncomfortable about her bodyguards hovering nearby. Her daddy, no doubt, had an armor plated car but sadly for him, it didn’t help. His car was ambushed in the jungle, and the top blown off with a bazooka. But I suspect that she is still living well in good old US of A somewhere.
