Performance Trends - Cars Trucks SUVS

0101 MTRP 01 O PT C2

The Becker Excursion contains all the traditional stuff you'd expect in a limo, including upgraded (super comfortable) seating, loads of legroom, food/drink service areas, plusher carpeting with extra sound-deadening materials, and more-but goes many steps further. Depending on how you option your Excurlimo, you can include items such as a 20-in. Video/Computer/Navigation LCD monitor, Phillips navigation system, a Dell Optiplex GX1 Pentium III computer, wireless Internet modem, a Palm Pilot interface setup, Nintendo/Sega/Sony video games, and even a Sony DVD system. Becker (known in Beverly Hills as the audio store of the stars) can also fit your Excursion with a custom audio package consisting of items such as a Nakamichi AM/FM/CD player, Panasonic DTS digital sound decoder, a plethora of speakers including a pair of 10-in. sub-woofers, custom-built equalizer, and 600 watts of Sony power-all good for a serious brain bruise. Leather, suede, and carpeting are all of Rolls-Royce quality-or better.

Externally, Becker spruces up the look of the Excursion by color-sanding the factory paint and adding items such as a body kit, cowl-induction hood, special side mirrors, aftermarket billet grille, and auxiliary lighting. Performance improvements come in the form of a 3-in.-diameter high-flow exhaust system, Remus chrome oval exhaust tips, Rancho 9000 adjustable shocks, and Boyd's 18-in. aluminum wheels wrapped in Pirelli Scorpion P285/60R18 tires.

When it comes to security, the Becker Excursion limo doesn't disappoint with its extremely elaborate electronic protection system. But if you need even more, the Excursion can be fitted with Becker's Ultimate Security Package that includes armor plating capable of withstanding "full metal jacket" gunshots and rocket-propelled grenades. Don't forget ram-style bumpers, Runflat tires, remote engine start, and even GPS tracking of the vehicle.

Now that you've made it big, leave those traditional stretch limos to movie stars and heads of state; consider a discreet, though decidedly large, Becker Excursion. Sorry, driver not included.
