Forget Bently and Rolce Royce, if you wanna be a star, you gotta get a Maybach
![]()
All i know is 549.9 bhp on a 8L V12 (btw, the concept came in a V24
)
here's what supercars.net had to say:
At the 72nd Geneva Motor Show (March 7 to 17, 2002), the German luxury car brand Maybach will be appearing in front of an international audience for the first time in more than sixty years. The time-honoured name "Maybach" is being revived as a separate brand by the DaimlerChrysler Group. The company will be presenting the new Maybach saloon in autumn 2002. With its unique roominess, its superlative engineering and its exclusive style, this luxury vehicle follows in the tradition of the legendary Maybach cars.
Top-flight engineering and a strong tradition make the new Maybach luxury brand a fresh and vital newcomer in the DaimlerChrysler family and provide a foretaste of great things to come. In autumn 2002, Maybach will renew the tradition of its large and spacious saloons with the successor to the legendary "Zeppelin", a luxury car which opens up new dimensions in more ways than one. As with the legendary top-of-the-line model of 1930, a V12 engine will provide the new Maybach with superior power and performance. Maybach will premiere the new "Type 12" engine, which delivers a peak output of 405 kW/550 hp and peak torque of 900 Newton metres, at the Geneva Motor Show.
More details will be available after the official release of the car.
