This is utterly hilarious. I had forgotten about this thread since I last posted on it, but going back to it and finding all these new developments was humorous.

I'm sure Rster's "father" posted, just like he really does have a Maybach. I mean, come on guys, even if Ft. Lauderdale Collection still does have that car, Rster's "father" can still have it... right? Maybe they have two of them; or maybe they cloned it; or maybe it's a timeshare!

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.
People who are full of **** must stop lying! What do they get by lying? Satisfaction? Superiority? being Flattered? Just state what you have, its no big deal, there is definitely something on your car that makes it cool and special. wake up and smell the flowers...

I bet the poor bloke can't even afford the brochures to the Maybach.

They're nice brochures though. Their expense is justified.

one might guess just from the originating post's subj line that this is bogus.
anyone who is in a position to add a Maybach to their collection isn't going
to ask people on an internet board whether they should get one. that line
of questioning is normally reserved for boys looking for validation. those who
have the ablity to own one wont care to ask....they'll just buy it.

.... nothing to brag about, it is a previous model....
I am sure there are many rich dude in this forum.
But why would someone who paying quarter mil + for a car want to visit this forum?

How to save money on this?
How to DIY this?
Does this looks good?

hmm........... I think "this dude" rather has his swedish meat ball all over him, than trying to impress anyone here.

Rster - I may only have one post on this message board, however i'm certainly not new to forums. And this has to be the saddest attempt to lying on the internet.

You reply to posts in half-assed sentences, and barely seem to know **** about this car. Quite pitaful if you ask me.

You claim you just bought a ~300k car, and you dont have a working camera to post actual pictures of it?

It's a good thing he didn't buy this car.

It's ugly as hell.

The two tone was the worst decision made by the stylists at MB. Probably the same guys who thought the SLR was a great look and worth 400K

Thats great! Its still the same dealer he claimed he bought it from and the same dealer I called and was told they still have it. I don't think anyone is going to buy that ugly color combo.

I noticed the top bid was $101k. could this be the new market price for used Maybachs?

Do you think it would be possible to pick up a used Maybach 57 for the price of a new S class?
If thats the case, then maybe some of us rabble could afford one.

I don't get it, why would you lie about an ugly *** car like that? At least say you got a 360 Modena or Ford GT or something like that. Hell, why not say you bought a Phantom?

Jeez! Why would anyone say a Phantom? Surely the ugliest car around? Even the latest BMW's can't quite equal it for ugly though I must admit the 6 series looks like one of those creatures they find in the sea at huge depths. The monster from the deep. When a car maker says its designs are challenging (!) or that their latest is 'less controversial' you know they are aware they dropped a clanger! One thing about Mercs they sure look good.

Well, I thought I would throw a pimp daddy bling bling car into the mix since this thread was about trying to impress, every "playa" is driving one!.
