Oh, and I just got off the phone with Fort Lauderdale Collection, the dealer who has the car in the pics. Its still available for $2xxk.



So did you decide to sell it?

I hope someone will be able to explain to us what it is that makes lying on the internet so much more fun for them compared to telling the plain truth...Eventually the truth comes out so I don't get it

If you guys dont want to believe me then fine, but I did buy the 57 I couldnt get the S for some time so I went back to the dealer to get the next best thing ok. The reason I only have those pics on there right now is because 1. I just got back from Disney with the kids 2.I cant get my *******g camera to upload pics to my computer so I used the pics from autrader where I first saw the car.

you can get a "plug and play" deal at the camera store for $40. that way you can just slide in the memory card and they automatically show up on the screen! i suggest you get one or get a new one. did you get the one in the pics?

Well, according to NY C32, your car is still for sale by the dealer... I'd make sure that title is rock solid.

Did you buy the car from Fort Lauderdale Collection? If you bought the exact car in those pics, I suggest checking your garage...because Fort Lauderdale Collection still has that same car for sale and as of yesterday, its still available.

If you're having problems with your digital camera, use your camera phone and take a pic.

Of course you can play but you don't just get to drive a Maybach... My staff is organizing an MBWorld GTG where each member attending will receive a key to their very own Maybach to take home as part of their gift basket

Thats right! Hell, we can even start our own Maybach forum. Some lucky SOB will even drive away in the Maybach seen here.
