Default Maybach!
i just spent some time in New Orleans at the W Hotel. One of the guests who was staying there was driving a Maybach 57. I just figured it out as I had never seen a car like this before. We would look at it daily trying to find the owner. Quite an amazine site.!

A replacement for the GS4??

Base price: $308,000
Cylinders: 12
Displacement (cc): 5513
Bhp@RPM: 543@5250
Torque (lb.-ft.)@RPM: 664@2300-3000
Boost: twin-turbocharged, twin intercooled
0-60 mph (sec.): 5.2
Top Speed (mph): 155
Curb Weight (lbs.): 6050

If I'm to blow $300K+ on cars, I would get a S65 & still have enough left for a 911 turbo, rather than spending it on this thing.

I'd rather have a Toyota Century instead. Too bad it doesn't sell here.
