At roughly 21 feet long, the Mercedes-Maybach Pullman is the successor to the legendary Mercedes 600 Pullman (aka the Großer Mercedes) – it will be made for dignitaries and heads of state and cost a bloody fortune.
Powered by a twin-turbo V12 engine, the Pullman will feature a 2+2+2 seating arrangement, as well as other 0.01 percent features like a glass partition (that changes from transparent to opaque via an electronic switch), electrically sliding curtains and a full armoring package. All in, a fully loaded Pullman with armoring will cost about $1-million.

What is this fascination among European premium brands with quilted interiors. Almost without exception they cheapen the appearance. They will forever remind me of Tijuana vinyl upholstery jobs from the 50's, as seen in photos of so many vintage California customs. In the Maybach, the quilting actually reminds me of pieces of Grandma's bedspread scattered throughout the interior like doilies. Quilted kneepads on the consoles, really?
$1-million is not so high .. There's a lot of fat nouveau-riche who love 'prestige' and can afford it.. How many workers (and 'work-hours') 'slave-workers' need to perform to sponsor that car for their 'beloved' Boss-master .. ?!? :)
