This one was parked like a ***** canoe outside the office yesterday:



I had to look it up to make sure it wasn't something else just rebadged and found a listing:

Only $234,000

That patterned hood and the wheels are all awful. Might be fun to drive though.

The repeating logo on the hood reminds me of a woman's purse. Just a little too gaudy for me to take it seriously. Probably a great car but it looks like something a drug dealer would buy. Or an older stripper that saved her money while dancing.

Yeh, at first I thought it had a Louis Vuitton wrap on the hood, or something like that.

I can't imagine spending an extra $46k for an SL 63 just so it says Maybach.

If you are going to park like a jerk, you have to commit to it. Take half of each spot.

What they did here just encourages someone to squeeze in right next to them and block their door from opening.

I would 100% do that with my 13 year old Hyundai

Not a convertible but, one day in LA (circa 2021), I was heading home from the Laurel Canyon Dog Park and at the intersection of Laurel Canyon and Ventura Blvd, I pulled up behind a guy in a Maybach Minivan.

I had no idea such a thing existed. Why would somebody do that? I suspected maybe it was fake but I looked it up and you could buy one from the local Mercedes dealer at the time.

Apparently they're bringing it back for 2027.

When you have a car that expensive, you pay people to wash it. But the idea of keeping that black plastic portion in the front free of dirt, dust and bugs would be a dealbreaker for me.

My decision to buy cars in the past has been influenced by how difficult I think the wheels are going to be to keep clean

Wow... That tiger was something.

The Mercedes SL cruising down Sunset, you can tell that was filmed before the war (i.e. pre-2020).

$234K!!! WTF? Do you know how many homeless that would feed in Los Angeles?

Two. For a year. (Bass).

Yes, and I usually take that invitation to park right next to their driver door.

Upper management civil engineers are always the coolest dudes. Proximity to DNT doesn't help.

Most of the cars in the three-hour parking outside my building I associate with the title/mortgage company on the first floor

I did that one time in this. Made sure they weren't getting that door open.

Not sure I understand the vehicle in the OP's post. Is that really marketed as a Maybach? There are really two vehicles in the true 'Maybach' market.

1. The traditional Maybach that has comford and command in the rear seat with a driver.
2. The BMW 750Li. It is legal to consume alhohol in the rear seat of this vehicle.

Two different markets for sure. But that car in the photo offers nothing.

They don't do that.
