We laugh at the cutting edge, but it soon becomes mainstream and we wonder why we ever liked anything else!

The carbon fiber wrap makes it look perpetually dirty.

Wait they still make those?

Anyways, that car is terrible on so many levels. The proprieters should feel shame and embarrasment.

I thought the whole point of a maybach was so you could drive around in rolls luxury and look like you were just an average sorta rich guy in an s class.

I'd like $1M for my car too, please.
-It appeals to the crowds in a unique and attention-catching way(open exhaust power).
-It has retro appearance but mass appeal.
-It definitely has patina. Lots of patina.
-It's had many asymmetrical custom body modifications over the years. Each panel handcrafted with care.

95 Subaru Legacy FS.
Available now only in limited edition.

They've taken all the class and luxury out of the Maybach and made it look like a rice rocket.
