How to Have James Bond's Submarine Experience in a Tesla Model S

The most fabulous man-made easter egg has just been created recently. It's a submarine that can transform into a Tesla model S and vice versa. By buying the second luxurious car in the US, besides all the luxury, you will also get a true James Bond experience. Whenever you wish, you and your girlfriend can spend the night in the ocean as deep as 20,000 feet inside your Tesla Model S. .

Does it sound like a fiction? Well, most of it is, but a tiny part of it is real. On the car's suspension panel setting, on its screen, you can have the access to see Lotus Esprit submarine, which looks similar to the one in one of James Bond movies The Spy Who Loved Me. In the James Bond's movie, Lotus Esprit was used as a car that can transform into a submarine.

So, how do you do it? Click the control menu for the technician login screen. Then hold down the T button and type "007" then you will be presented with the display of Lotus Esprit Submarine with its depth control and monitor, as if you are riding the submarine in the depth of the sea..

The idea comes from Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who was so inspired and obsessed with the submarine-like vehicles in the James Bond movie The Spy Who Loved Me that he purchased one for $866,000

Here's what Elon Musk had to say that was reported by Slashgear:

"It was amazing as a little kid in South Africa to watch James Bond in 'The Spy Who Loved Me' drive his Lotus Esprit off a pier, press a button and have it transform into a submarine underwater" Musk said via a Tesla spokesperson. "I was disappointed to learn that it can't actually transform. What I'm going to do is upgrade it with a Tesla electric power train and try to make it transform for real."
