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.
I'd take a Phantom over a Maybach anyday. I think the Maybach is one of the ugliest cars on the road. I see atleast a few a day and the only thing about it that makes me look and wonder is why the owner/passenger doesn't use some of that money on a new pair of glasses

Well I must admit, amazingly, I've not seen a single Maybach in the flesh since it came out. Only photos so you may be right. Any way it has been a total flop for Mercedes with sales way below expectations. The problem is that for any reasonable person the S class is more than enough. Had I ten times my present income, I would still buy an S class. I find the looks of the 220 pantswettingly beautiful, a classic in the making, and even for my long legs there is lots of room, great comfort and a nice big boot.
Mind you I suppose a 430 or a 500 would be tasty, if fuel bills are no worry.

Did you ever see this thread about the kid bragging about the SLR, and his dad came to the forums and apologized for him? He actually posted real pictures of himself sitting in the SLR.
My initial SLR thread, where he was attacked:
https://mbworld.org/forums/slr-mclaren-c199/140312-my-first-slr-pic-some-wishful-thinking.html

His comeback:
https://mbworld.org/forums/slr-mclaren-c199/141367-priceless.html

If your story is inconsistent, you have to prove yourself... if you can't, we can smell the BS a mile away!

Oh come on folks. Surely it was just a bit of harmless fun. I used to say I owned a pair of football boots, as a child, 'at the repairers', to cover up that I didn't have any. We all do it in our different ways. Bill Gates told lots of fibs/lies about what he had developed/invented and look where it got him!

Dude, that is not even the same thing... Bill Gates took ideas and developed them into many successes, but obviously the truth about who invented what is always out there: it's public knowledge.

Now we don't know you in person, and we like to hear car stories from people.. so it's not really harmless fun... do talk about cool cars that you have owned, and cooler cars that you would like to have... we're all ears..

When's Rster going to stop masturbating to his older brother's 1997 Playboy, put his Playstation away, and get back on this thread to take potshots at us? You just cant buy entertainment like this!

i sit here and am amazed... the higher-end the thread goes (im a resident of the w124 thread) the more bull**** I see. I mean, I talk about stuff for my car that I cant afford and want really bad, but I atleast have the car and proof... But this is just ridiculous..

Do you see many Maybachs in UK? I see one or two in Boston.

I just got back from Florida and saw MANY Bentleys, and a few new RR's, didn't see one Maybach.

See some around in Warren, NJ (hometown). Its the soft blue one (57 i believe). Its OK looking... the tail end is a little too sharp and over-styled.
