Ask again in 30 years. If they still have value and allure after that sort of time, then they have something that Rolls Royce have found, until then, it is just a Merc and an expensive one at that.

To be honest, neither. A Rolls Royce Phantom costs $328,750, the Maybach $385,250 and the S600 Pullman around  $600,000, I would have the Rolls. There is heart in the Roll's, the others are new kids on the block with something to prove. I hate to say it, but the others are just expensive Merc's.  Apart from which, Simon Cowl ponce's about in a Maybach, so that is one reason I would not have one. That, and only the first 20 feet would fit in my garage ;D

None of these stretched cars have any class at all IMO.

A Bentley Arnage will do me. :)
