I'm familiar with this car, the owner lives in my immediate area and I can explain why the price of the car is so low. The owner is a very elderly man, and an extremely bad driver. I've personally seen him bump into other cars and damage the Maybach. He's driven it regularly in the rain, the snow, whatever. I can't stress enough how badly this car has been used and abused, and I can't stress enough how poorly the elderly owner has treated it. It might be nice and shiny right now, but I promise you this car has been ridden hard and put away very wet.

, which is 16% per year, that equals 56k per year or only 168k over the first 3 years. Nice.

I had one for a week and put nearly 1k miles on it in that time 
In a funny way that car was a blast to drive (57). Not that involving but oh so funny to quietly blow past people!
That car may be a in poor condition but the residual on a Mayback is about 38% after 3 years if my mind is working correctly. That is what MB credit pinned it at for their lease calculations. So a 2004 Mayback should be about 138k or so. Not that far off.

is the life time warranty for real? The auction has the car listed as a lifetime warranty. If that is the case I need to buy a Maybach for my cross counrty travels every month.
