Should I buy or not
I am thinking about buying a Maybach 57 S. I have found the one I want and have already talked to a dealer. Do you guys think it worth the money?? I already have an R500 and a CLS55 AMG and am unsure if its worth the money. Sure does look good though!!!!!!!

can you guys give me your opinions?

Dude. Since i'm guessing you've spent what about $350-380k for this i would've taken that money and buy an RT12! But that's just me personally. Congrats on your new ride.

Congrats!
It looks like a "regular" 57. MB Manhattan has a 57S but wheels similar to the new S550.

Nice car, but it doesn't look like a 57s. 57s has different front and rear bumpers, grille, and wheels.

Yeah, I cant believe you bought it either ::snicker::

Who's the dealer that you "bought" this 57S it from?
