Top 10 Expensive Gadgets for the Rich Guy
10. The Flying Hovercraft
Price: $190,000
The Flying Hovercraft is the only boat that should theoretically require a pilot licence. Imagine it now: You are casually cruising down the river when you decide to get this baby up to full speed, and the next thing you know you are 100 feet in the air – you will be bricking in. I know we would stain our trousers a little.
Specs:
- Top speed of 70 mph
- It has a low center of gravity
- Operating in fresh or saltwater and up to 30% inclines over land
- A 130-hp twin-cylinder, liquid-cooled gasoline engine
- Turbocharged and fuel-injected
9. Hot Tub Boat
Price:$21,500
Imagine getting a boat and filling it with warm water. Who wouldn’t want that, to add the thing that you are trying to keep out. It’s up to you, guys, but we prefer our hot tubs on land and our boats without water. But, it would be kind of cool to see the look on people’s faces as we cruised past in a hot tube. That definitely would be a WTF moment.
Specs:
- Takes around 2.5 hours to warm up.
- Use in every weather condition
- 38° Celsius (100° F) warm water
8. iPad 2 Gold History Edition
Price: $8,000,000
The only iPad to cotain frickin’ T-REX bones!
Hmm, $8 million, should I buy one iPad 2 Gold History Edition or 16,000 regular iPad 2s for the same price? Tough decision! As fancy as the iPad looks (and boy does it), inside it’s the exact same thing as a regular one as far as we know. How about you buy a regular one and buy a few galaxy bars and then glue the wrappers to the iPad? No one would know the difference and we promise not to tell anyone, it can be our secret.
Specs:
- Encrusted with 12.5 cts of ‘I’F’ Flawless diamonds
- A total of 53 individually set gems in the solid 24ct Apple logo
- 24ct gold
- front frame made from Ammolite – the oldest rock the world has to offer
- T-REX Dinosaur’s thigh bone was splintered and then shaved into the Ammolite
- A 8.5ct flawless diamond inlaid in its own platinum surround with 12 outer flawless diamonds.
7. Personal Submarine
Price: $2,000,000
Now this is going to make a dent in your wallet, but we think it would be totally worth it. This submarine is definitely the best gadget in this top ten list and don’t say you wouldn’t want one if someone gave you one for free. Just think: At least with a price tag of $2 million, there won’t be much congestion down on the seabed. And if you wish to explore the deep blue seas, it’s not going to come cheap.
Specs:
- Descend to a depth of 1,000′
- Two-person submarine
- Transparent top climate-controlled 3 1/4″-thick acrylic pressure sphere
- Powered by a 120- and 24-volt battery bank that provide up to six hours of use.
- Propelled by two 3-hp main thrusters
- Four external 150-watt quart-halogen lamps
6. Hart Audio “D&W Aural Pleasure” Loudspeakers
Price: $4,800,000
Stuff your Dr Dre Beats, you can keep them. What you need is some serious bling and what says more bling then $4.8m, 18ct gold speakers. Apparently the speakers are supposed to be inspired by London’s Big Ben, but we can’t see it. If you have a tight budget you could always get the speakers in bronze for ($64,000 or silver for $322,000. We best go and book a meeting with the bank for a new loan.
Specs:
- Sensitivity 97db 1w@1mtr
- Impedance 5 Ohms
- Frequency range 47Hz- 37Khz +-4db & 39Hz-47Khz +- 10db
5. Replica Batmobile

Top Speed 90mph
Working rocket exhaust flamethrower
Glowing Detect-a-Scope radar screen
Push-button ignition
Power Steering
And more…
4. The Killer Whale Submarine
Price: $100,000Who has always wanted to travel on the back of a Killer Whale? No one? Must just be us then. Well, instead of riding the back of this great mammal, how about riding in a submarine that looks like one? I think you will find it’s the new best thing. I can imagine someone would get one of these for their outdoor pool. In fact, that’s a sweet idea. Get a few beers, get in the submarine and then submerge…perfect!
Specs:
- Two-person watercraft
- Can Hydroplane up to 50 mph over the surface of the water
- Can reach up to 25 mph when submerged
- LCD that displays live video from the dorsal fin’s built-in camera
- 14-gallon fuel tank

3. GoVacuum GV62711
Price: $1,000,000
Take a sh***y looking vacuum, slap it with 24k gold and give it a polish, and what do you get? The world’s most expensive vacuum that’s what. To say it’s made out of gold the vacuum only weighs 16 pounds – but it is only gold-plated. We don’t know about you, but for a price tag of $1 million we would want the hover to clean the house for us. In fact a Roomba will only set you back $400 and that WILL clean your house for you.
Specs:
- Limited Edition- only 100 will ever be made
- 100% metal construction with a 24k gold-plated highly polished golden finish
- Lifetime GoVacuum Warranty

2. VRX Mach 4 Racing Simulator
Price:$25,000
With 4 Xbox 360s you and your friends can have bets to see which one of them will accumulate the dreaded ring of death first. Although we love our retro games, this VRX Mach 4 Racing Simulator looks kind of badass. Best tell the wife that she needs to find a new place to keep the sofa as this bad boy is going straight in the living room. Best also get to the shop to stock up on energy drinks.
Specs:
- (This bad boy has s””t loads so we can’t name them all)

1. Diesel Powered MechWarrior
Price: $1,350,000
Holly s**t, a frickin’ robot! It may not be the next T-800 – Terminator, but it’s the next best thing. In fact, it could even be better actually as you actually fit inside the robot and control it yourself – just like a Megazord. It even has weapon add-ons that you can buy such as a Gatling BB gun that fires when you smile – obviously all the rounds would go in the first minute of being in the robot. You know you would be manning the robot down the street the first day you get it and end up having it taken off you by the police.
Specs:
- First giant boarding-robot
- Four meters heigh
- Customisable
- Comes with a variety of weapons
- Max speed 6mph
- Unique robotics operating system called V-Sido
Remember: Draping a gadget in gold and diamonds does NOT make it cool.
