Times have changed I suppose, when cars are now shown in LA and China.

That looks like it would fit right in at any Chrysler dealer . Is that the new model?

Isn't that just a fancied up S-class? The previous Maybach was a distinct model.

That's all the 57/62 was as well. I know a guy with a 57...it's an incredible car.

The coupe pictured above was a one off used to promote the brand and do some tire testing.
A typical Maybach was a four door.




And yes, they were based on the S class which many said was too big.

Oh, so that must be the concept or proto Moveback I-Rap edition. The production car should have the appropriate gold exterior trim and 40 inch wheels.

Is the interior suitable for I-Rap uses?

I'm pretty sure those back seats recline to nearly lay-flat. Your argument is invalid.

My half serious theory is that when Maybachs are popular, a recession is nigh.
