    Don't Like The Bentley? How About This?

    NO, not the driver!!

    I like the look, but not the sound.

    Looks far too much like a boat! It also reminds me of the 50's vintage front engine Indy cars.

    That is one beautiful Merc, Mike. I'd do it.

    I love the look, but I'm afraid the sound would make me sick.

    If I remember correctly that is not a Mercedes but is a Bentley or possibly a Rolls Royce, and is the most expensive new car ever sold. Please confirm.

    Possibly. I merely saw the Merc 3-point star emblem on the hood and rear bonnet and assumed the rest.

    It is a Mercedes-Maybach 6 Cabriolet. As near as I can tell it will set you back about $330,000.

    I stand corrected on both counts.

    Ahhh… Maybachs. I've never seen one in person.

    I've been in love with boat tails ever since I saw a Auburn Cord at a car show when I was a kid.
