I'd say someone in the Arabian peninsula would be very fond of these. People love them over here!

So...... For the same price as a new V-12 you can get one almost 18 years old?

And a W140 at that?

I'm not really sure what the price of a new S-class is with the Maybach package. The dealerships I go to don't put the stickers on the windows of the Maybach package.

Still, as nice as the W140 is it is no 2016 Maybach.

The Maybachs are $189k...I'd take one of those and an AMG GT-S ($129k) for about the same price if I had the money to blow...

That would be a nice garage.

You don't see a lot of Maybach's around Oklahoma. I am thinking this is because they are meant to be ridden in and not driven.

The back seats are amazing. Think First Class airline travel or better.

The hot set up for executives around here would be $70,000 pick-up trucks.
