Maybach 62 Landaulet gearing up for production

Posted on 01.29.2008 16:22 by Shrawan Raja

For many of us, this definitely won’t be on the shopping list for this year or the next. Maybach plans to put its 62 Landaulet into production. So how cheap is this one?

Its based on the Maybach 62 S and technically describing it, its a cross between a convertible and a sedan. It was unveiled in Dubai last November and as predicted, it was an attention-grabber as onlookers suggested that blokes at Maybach were supposedly inspired by an accident where a long wheelbase convertible rammed into one of their test mules.

Maybach elucidates the Landaulet as majestic open-air experience with the ultimate in luxury and comfort. This is another example of the old saying that reads- Accidents lead to inventions. But what unquestionably matters to us, is its price tag, as Maybach prepares this one for production sometime later this year.

Some claim strongly its US $1.19 million. Others claim it would come at around $685,000. Lets forget that and work out the premium you’ll need to pay over the Maybach 62 S.

$1.19 million would be a whopping $756k more than the 62 S. We need someone from Maybach to give us the exact details for us to finish this write-up.

And I know..this is lame.

Like those that Cadillac has had since 2000. That are available on the Scion, for under twenty grand. WOW!! This is news. Or is it? The Maybach is certainly a worth subject of commentary. But, new (...)

Chrysler was lucky - Maybach dealers get screwed

Posted on 10.2.2007 21:00 by Ralph Kalal

146. That’s the total number of Maybach’s sold by the entire United States dealer network in 2006. Maybach started out with 71 dealers. Now it is down to 42. The others gave up their franchises, in exchange for payments from Mercedes-Benz which one dealer said amounted to one-fourth of the dealer’s investment. And it’s a safe bet that whomever was unfortunate enough to have purchased one of these overpriced last generation S Class cars got (...)
