i would bet it probably took RR 10 mins tops to design that exterior...start with a box and add some lines here and there and headlights and one huge,ugly grill and they're done.

the front of the maybach looks too "gentle" sort of like a heavily modified S-class...however....the front of the RR looks like...ermm..woody...
Interior-wise....maybach win this round hands down!
10 mins? maybe 5...
The rear of the RR looks kind of similar with the Bently...not too impressive...

Great photos.
I think the Maybach looks a little too much like an S Class in the front and a little too American in the rear styling, especially the tail lights.
Not my favourite automotive design but impressive none the less.

Is that a rr?
Is that a Rolls Royce? It looks like it could be next year's Cadillac Cetera.
And that red leather interior!?! What is this, a cheap Italian restaurant or an old steakhouse?
RR loses, hands down!

Usually in this situation I'd say name means nothing, but when buying cars of this extremely caliber it means everything. Rolls Royce wins, sorry. But of course in reality I'd rather get a S600 and RENNtech/Kleemanize it.
