i figure it's like RR and Bentley, People will buy it but they may not drive it, Sorry bad example, Bentley IS a driver's car and RR is a Chauffeurs car so it will be a cross-over.

You don't know that. You should never judge people by their looks. They could be nice, respectable gun runners.

Because there is no "freaking mercedes symbol" right on the front of the car.

Any good shots of the Maybach logo, then? I never looked close enough to realize it wasn't the MB circle-star.

I think it's Mercedes answer to RR and Bentley.

I think perhaps some of the earlier prototypes or concepts had the star, but the more recent ones have that odd round tall ornament (still can't figure out what it is).

I like that car very much. It has like a sofa as back seat and all the luxury needed. First Mercedes intended to put a V24 into the Maybach but they changed it into a biturbo V12 because the V24 would have been too loud for a luxury car. Anyway, eventhough V24 sounds good, the 500 hp biturbo V12 should be enough . I like the official new model much more than the older concept. The only thing that annoys me a little is that Infniti styled front grill, but if you just look at the front lights then its a total Mercedes again. The only thing that makes the front grill look like an Infiniti is that the patterns go diagonal, in the other Merc models the patterns in the front grill go horisontal. Any way, I like that car and it looks very good, at least better than the new BMW Rolls that I've seen in many spypics. The Maybach will surely dominate the luxury car market.

i don't think a V24 is possible.... well maybe it is but totally unpractical... 2 banks of 12 cylinders :huh:
maybe it was going to be a W24?? that would make more sense, 4 banks of 6 cylinders, that would still be HUGE!

There was never going to be a V24 it was between a bi-turbo V12 and a V16

The prototypes were only equipped with V-12s and bi-turbo V-12s. The production model will have the latter. I suppose they are trying to outdo both Rolls (super-lux) and Bentley (performance aspect) simultaneously. Anyone know how much this thing is going to weigh? Hopefully it will be somewhat lighter than the 5K+ lbs. Bentleys.
