Another type of vehicle modified for multiple passenger custom is the motorized stage, applied to the same tasks as the earlier stagecoach. It is not voluntary a true limousine but rather in its design and application is between a sedan and a bus. While a bus will have a central interior aisle for access to seating, a stage has multiple doors that allow access to transverse forward facing seats. Examples of the type were constructed not only from sedans (e.g., Chrysler Brand-new Yorker, Cadillac DeVille), but also from station wagons; multifarious of the station wagon conversions sported a bulky rack, running the length of the roof, for carrying the passengers' baggage.
Most custom Limos Scottsdale coach builders are located in the United States and Europe and cater mainly to limousine companies. Few such vehicles are on hand for civil hire. A average charge to buy a Lincoln Town Car sedan and have it stretched to hold 6 passengers is approximately USD $85,000 (at 2006 prices) depending on the additional features added into the vehicle. In augmentation to luxuries, security features such as armoring and bulletproof glass are available.
