I know..I was planning on buying a 2013 Maybach. until I heard this....
Abbas JuzarNov 28, 2011 finally they made the good decision cause rolls royce's are much better
Esam MohammadNov 28, 2011 Really disappointing !! I wanted to buy a one of these when I get married -.- .. F U Mercedes
Shaun ConroyNov 28, 2011 What's Oprah going to arrive in now?
Miftah Rasheed AmirNov 28, 2011 Hey, Maybach had superb cars way back in the days, before most of us were alive. Of course they're trash now, but it's the same as what happened to Pontiac etc. They had good stuff, so it's not entirely a useless brand.
Brahim GudahNov 28, 2011 Finally rolls and bently have been murdering it... And a fully loaded s65 is pretty much just as good as a maybach but for less
Robby BradfordNov 27, 2011 About time do you hear people say I want a lamborghini or I want a mayback? This is not surprising at all
Scott GraceyNov 27, 2011 @stephen, that's if Rick Ross lives til 2013 haha
Michael PalazzoNov 27, 2011 the current 62s & 57s are beautiful in a solid color, the old ones are hideous though.
Gianni FalzoneNov 27, 2011 Couldn't imagine paying a premium for such an ugly vehicle.
Stephen CobbsNov 27, 2011 I guess Rick Ross is gonna need a new name for his music group. Maybach Music.
Zachary MaurerNov 27, 2011 If they redesinged the rebadged s class( I know this is owned by Mercedes) and lowers the price, and made more than 2 models, it might have survived, might have.
Chris BensonNov 27, 2011 Bout time. Worthless brand and an extreme waste of money.
John Andrew MoralesNov 27, 2011 This is disappointing. I always found it fun to keep up with a brand whose luxury was unmatched.
Lewis SecorDec 04, 2011 It doesn't do anything for me, I'd rather buy a 30,000 ford taurus then buy a cheap style over priced car
Tin NguyenNov 28, 2011 The body style looks like a Kia. Never like them. They are beyond ugly.
Greg KenerlyNov 27, 2011 Good point Christian. A luxury brand that was separate would've been a hit. Oh well
KeX LimNov 27, 2011 The problem with the Maybach is the although it's larger than the S-Class, its styling is too much like an ordinary Mercedes-Benz. You just don't get that exclusive feel when you see one.
Christian De PriscoNov 27, 2011 I think they should have developed an outstanding brand rather than a uber luxury mercedes s class, of course it didn't sell well...
Walter Alexander ThomasNov 27, 2011 I think is car is beyond ugly. Simply disgusting. Good that it is being killed
Michael PalazzoNov 27, 2011 the two toned ones don't look so good but solid colored ones are beautiful inside & out
Erik OlsenNov 27, 2011 Just look at it! No wonder it didn't sell well!

Tin NguyenNov 28, 2011 800 unit a year? Keep on dreaming.
Justin TuckerNov 27, 2011 It's about time they get rid of it!
Description: Mercedes first took over the brand after they were unable to buy either Rolls-Royce or Bentley, which are now owned by BMW and Volkswagen, respectively. Earlier this year, as some may recall, there wa...Add Comments0
KeX LimNov 27, 2011 I saw a 57 once. It did look very much like a super-sized S-Class.
Arben ImeriNov 27, 2011 I parked my s550 next to one. I've only seen a couple of these and there's a huge difference in terms of size and luxury between these and an s class
Christian De PriscoNov 27, 2011 I did see them a few times and they always seem to be s class mercedes till it gets very close
Jesus GuerraNov 27, 2011 You know I never have come face to face with one of these cars
