โ๏ธ A chauffeurโs leather suite
โ๏ธ Silk privacy shades (yes, silk!)
โ๏ธ An intercom system (1920s version of โtext meโ)
โ๏ธ Built-in vanities for touch-ups on the go
โ๏ธ A roll-down divider for those "don't talk to me, I'm rich" moments
Now hereโs your chance to be part of history! ๐๐จ๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐จ๐ญ๐ญ ๐๐ฎ๐ฌ๐๐ฎ๐ฆโ๐ฌ ๐๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ญ-๐-๐๐๐ซ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฆ!
