Maybach, the ultra-luxe branch of Mercedes-Benz coveted by the business elite and rap stars alike, has been officially discontinued. Mercedes recently released the price list for the 2013 models of these limo-like sedans, with the price column simply stating "Discontinued" for each one of them.
No one is overly surprised to see the brand go. Shockingly, sales of the car, which goes for $376,300 all the way up to $1,380,000 for the Landulet edition, were very, very slow. The brand simply wasn't making any money. In fact, it had been reported that the company had been losing a staggering $500,000 on each model that was sold.
Maybach sedans come in 3 variations: The Type 57, the bigger Type 62 and the ultra-exclusive Landulet. Both the Type 57 and Type 62 come with a 5.5L V-12, which creates 543 hp. Essentially, the only difference between the two is that the Type 62 has a longer wheelbase.
The Maybach sedans will be replaced by the Mercedes-Benz S600 Pullman, which will be used to combat cars from Bentley and Rolls-Royce. This vehicle will resurrect the Pullman moniker and will likely be shown to the world with the next-gen S-Class.
There are rumors aplenty about the S600, but we'll have to wait and see what comes of it. The most interesting thing we've heard is that the car will come with all engine variants, including the four-cylinder diesel.
Mercedes Benz..................base company that provides the basic smart car........................I fox rental car lax have a smart car, and giggle everytime I tell someone it is a Mercedes Benz product. It is..................now if Mercedes will just admit when I pull up that the smart IS their product......the snooty Mercedes dealerships don't like to acknowledge it....so only a few specific Mercedes have smart service centers..................the smart allows them to show the federal government that they have a fuel efficient model in their line......yes, I love mine.

Boy do you have this one wrong. Ask Pelosi and her husband what their chauffeuer drives them around in. Why do you think she has a Limo at her disposal in Washington D. C. ? You poor Democrats at home may be driving around in a Ford but not those in Washington with the Bucks. Which by the way the Rich Democrats in Washington outnumber the Repubs 3 to 1. You don't your own party do you?

Well some of you are right, the Ben-z, are not the same like years ago , of course everything change with the time BUT it's not fair that you paid a lot money for a car, and before eight years you have to change the most important piece, because are damage , as , manifold, trasmition,box master brake,catalityc,radiator,air flox, sensor box an a lot things more....sorrry for let you know that, this my case I have ML-320 is the best but I have to put a lot money, exactly when you already paid off the car is not good but everything is damage the seats and also the keys. what to do paying a lot money in foreign cars is all of them moving you.
