Forget that fat Winnebago camper you’ve been eyeing when you could seriously rock out in Prince’s 1984’s Purple Rain tour bus. That’s right, the 1983 Eagle Model 10 Motorcoach is big, purple, and up for sale in December from Mecum Auctions. The big purple beast is powered by a big turbodiesel engine and also has a diesel generator, air conditioning, new flat screens and audio, as well as actual executive jet leather capatin’s chairs. It sleeps six, has a full-size bathroom, full kitchen and dining area, as well as office space to negotiate record contracts or whatever else you need to do. It might not beat more modern tour buses, but few others will have to vintage panache and legendary rock status.
