Given that the GLS Maybach is likely suffering with the same production issues as all the other GLS models, it’s doubtful that there will be many choices in colors until they get those basics ironed out. I don’t plan on replacing my GLS 63 until the interior leather options are expanded back to what they were before.

It is doubtful that the new Bentayga with the interior and driving assistance updates will show up in 2020. In the meantime I’m loving my 2017 Bentayga, which has not only many different interior and exterior color choices, but the color split options on the interior and many trim options make for a highly customizable vehicle. Plus the transmission is much better than some of MB’s.

Note you can’t get a HUD on the 63 if you order the high end audio, which you basically have to since the base Burmester is crap.

you sure you can’t ? I haven’t seen the latest dog besides the first one. Didn’t see anything in there that said you can’t. On my wife’s new gle 450 I couldn’t get the upgraded radio because of the exterior amg package. Wasn’t happy but the car looks much better with the amg package. wife wanted that.

I’m sure. This package is the only way to get a HUD:

DA0 MBUX Technology Package
Not available with Burmester High End Surround Sound System (811)
 PAU – MBUX Technology Package Code
 U19 – Augmented Video
 463 – Head Up Display

There is no standalone HUD option, like there is for the 3-D.

Saw a black Maybach the other day. Looks much better in solid color instead of two tone.

sorry I was driving and spotted it at the front of the red light late. Most likely a Benz test car so will likely catch it out and about like almost every car made at the AL plant.

here are pics of a test car in which they changed the carpet in recently. Told it will soon be sold and only 2 cars will have this interior, assume the color combo won’t be option.



Old tan carpet

New grey carpet

Well stick with the 63, it's a better looking SUV. IMO the Maybach GLS will look tired looking after the first several months. Too much going on looks wise. Expect to see lots of early trades. The GLS without an AMG kit is not a very nice looking suv.

This car doesn’t make sense. You’d think it would have SUV practicality (like its expensive rivals) but instead they moved the seats back and put in a fridge and a huge cargo cover so the trunk space is a joke.

sorry for the delay. I don’t have the DOG, but it starts at 160k, and with some options goes for about 170. Not two tone paint. My dad built one, now he’s debating on taking it. I ended up going for another rebrand all together since my wife has a GLE.

I’d love my Maybach with the Crystal White leather, but can you imagine taking care of white carpeting??
