Is that the Maybach 57 or the 62? I remember seeing the interior of the 62 (6.2 meters long) and you could fit a d*mn ottoman in the front of the backseat if you wanted!
That's an awesome car...but I think it costs a bit more than a college student can afford. 
But...I seem to recall that it's made by Chrysler (I may be wrong) , and I'm not a fan of Chrysler products, so I'd pass on it.

It's made by Daimler-Chrysler, it's a Mercedes.

Well, you know how they pronounce Daimler-Chrysler in German, don't you?
It's "Daimler." (The Chrysler is silent...)

What are the Brabus mods? Performance? Interior? (I did note a B on the rear headrests) Exterior?
I'm not familiar with the stock info on the Maybach., and haven't heard of Brabus. But the Maybach is a hot looking car and the pics above are really nice.

For half the price, I prefer the new Bentley Continental GT.
Maybachs are boring, I see them around town every day. Just a glorified taxi, is all it is.

Where the heck do you live that you see Maybachs everyday???? THe only one I have seen is at teh NAIAS auto show in Detroit. But I guess theres not much use for a car like that in the 'burbs. Still that is an amazing car. Id love to won one, but I prefer to drive instead of ride so I would probably go for a M5, 760 or one of the S-class AMG Mercedes.

Brabus is a tuner for MB and they specialize in fully built engines but do offer piece by piece add ons. On this car from what I can see, the screens in the rear are larger, the wheel and tire package also larger, front and rear bumpers and some healthy engine programming at the least. This also appears to be a "57" as it doesn't have the reclining seats in the rear with the footrests. It also seems to be missing the divider in the middle that comes in the "62" but that could also be optional.

I saw a Maybach at the Atlanta Auto Show. It was so nice I would have thought it not possible to enhance. I guess I was wrong. The craftmanship on these cars is terrific but they cost almost as much as my house.
The paint quality is terrific I might add and I like the two tone paint common on the brand.
