Maybach I saw

[poodie]

I saw this Maybach in Indiana of all places. I had no idea what is was at first and had no prior knowledge of Maybachs before this but when I saw it I knew it was expensive. So I took a bunch of pics. i cant remember the exact number that were to be sold in the us but it was pretty dam low.

I dont know it this is a 57 or a 62 or what the difference is between the both.

The phantom has the retractible hood ornamert, right???

[poodie]

yeh, i saw it in a top gear video. it looks cool. if i owned a phantom id probably break with playing with that feature all the time.

the 57 is 5.7m long where as the 62 is 6.2m long. this one looks like a 57 to me.

[asthenia]

That thing's hella ugly, and I'm sure the owner knows it...but doesn't care.

What an amazingly decadent car.

Definitely a 57. Crazy that it's just out in the open like that. Were you at a park or something? That just screams "door ding me".

more like, 'I'm rich, follow me home and rob me!'

were do u live?

[corvette97]

aahhhh i guess indiana US, errrrr ead

[poodie]

Yes, I live in Indiana, US.

[Fleischmann]

It's definately a 57. BTW...we have Maybachs in Poland too. Only one has been sold so far in a country with a 38.000,000 population.

as soon as any1 comes near the Flying Lady, it snaps back into the bonnet of the car. All cars have a system like that, EU law says they gotta have it. Jaguar Cat snaps back, mercedes Star rolls over.
its for pedestrian protection in case of an accident(and against shitbags who r trying to steal ur ornament ofcourse)

[SamuraiGti]

What motor this have?

I think that is one sold here in Portugal to one of the most rich guys in here.

Thanks poodie =)

[millerscott77]

thats a beautiful car

[husyk]

Sweet pics, I'd like to see that.

[dylan99]

Great pics the difference between the 57 and the 62 is that the 62 has more legroom and it haves 'airplanes' seats that are electronically operated. You can also have - only in the 62 - a transparent roof and with the switch of a button it goes translusive or it dark or the lights goes on. The 62 is obviously longer and slower then the 57 by 0.2s from 0 to 100km/h.

[kian]

its a 57 ...which means 5.7 metres long the 62 is 6.2 metres , u can tell by looking at the length of the rear door .....

[kian]

btw ...is the bike yours ? ( from the reflection )

[touge2k]

Fletcher Jones in newport has had at least 2 that I have seen, the same 62 from the LA auto show was in the showroom last week. Its really sick, there are curtains on the back windows... I dont think I can post up pictures yet (1st post) otherwise Id go back and snap some.

[poodie]

no its not my bike, i just walked over from my dorm to take the pics. that would be pretty cool if it was though. id most likely kill myself on a bike though

[blackgt2]

I love the maybach. Are you close to chicago at all? (NW Indiana) That's weird to see a Maybach out in a "common" parking lot like that. VERY nice though!

[poodie]

My hometown is 2hrs away from chicago, the pic was taken 4hrs away from chicago. im going up there this weekend for the auto show. im pumped
