Maybach 57S 2004

[CORRUPTEDDISC]

Maybach is undoubtedly the most vulgar of the ultra expensive luxury marques. That said, it does have a 550 horsepower 5.5 litre V12 engine, which allows this 2.7 tonne behemoth to hit 60 mph in a little over 5 seconds. Like all Maybach's, the 57S is based on the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, which means supreme luxury, effortless torque and more than a slight gangster vibe. Incidentally, I chose to suggest the 57S because it is the lightest and fastest version of the Maybach range, with the best tuning potential on GT...

I don't really see how this is vulgar past the way it looks.

Actually I would think that it was a Chinese Merc ripoff if it didn't have the badges.
