| Ebay has six for sale, and this is the first time I've seen any car contain the words "manufacturer buy back" within the text of the ad. Apparently, there are issues, one being "the navigational system problem fixed" on two, or issue not stated. There are also the word export listed, or export okay. Exporting a car that imported? I've also read stories of the car not functioning on long trips. Is this true? You know, driving out to the Nevada sticks and the car breaks down. Where does one take the car if you're in say......... Elko? Also, one in particular, a 2005 with 25k miles, has manufactures warranty until 08/32/08. Yippie, a car of this caliber only gives a three year warranty? I know, I'm picky. And what should one expect with such a discount, $150K, or $198K for a $300K car. Well, they say you loose a lot when you drive it off the lot. | |

i am in awe of that machine. i wonder if the acceptance of only my driver's license would be enough to "test drive" it, or would they want proof of insurance and call my bank to make sure that my balance was nine digits to the left of the decimal?

Replying to: maiming (Oct 07, 2008 1:50 am) Still not sure why a few on Ebay are lemon law buy backs. Not a good sign. So, how far down in price will they go before it makes sense to buy and keep? Kind of like a seventies 600 SWB. There was a moment when they were a good deal. But, then there's the servicing, those pesky hydraulic shocks..........so what are, or will be the issues with the Maybach? If the navigation system seems to be a problem, does that influence other mechanical components within the car? I can live without a map, I can't live with goofy electrical problems. |

Replying to: maiming (Oct 07, 2008 10:57 pm) i thought with the wide wheel base, the large tires, hydraulic shocks and being so low to the ground (citroen sm and ds, mercedes 450sel 6.9) that it would be an xlnt ride (the luxury lowrider)...

Replying to: sunair (Oct 08, 2008 5:48 am) THIS is what i meant by "in awe of this machine"... there are only three sites i've found on the net that show this car in action. if you're interested i'll send them to you. maiming |
