Behold "the world's most luxurious personal submarine," says Jim Dobson at Forbes. The Aurora-6, built for the superyacht crowd by California-based Seamagine, seats a pilot and five passengers, including three in the leather swivel chairs in its rear "guest lounge." There's also a toilet in the hull. The sub is rated for depths of 3,300 feet and can remain undersea for as long as eight hours. And you may want all that time, thanks to the unobstructed views provided by the craft's large acrylic domes. They "provide the sensation of entering the underwater world, as opposed to simply observing it."
The underwater beauty goes for $5 million.
