Maybach at the IAA 2011: Edition 125! Exquisite appointments and individual styling

[MBFanToDeath]

In the year of the 125th anniversary of the automobile Maybach is displaying the Edition 125! at the International Motor Show in Frankfurt. This unusual one-off piece presents exquisite new possibilities for individually styling the high-end saloons. The highlights include contour lighting and the laser-engraved light motif featuring the double-M in a curved triangle in the front armrest. The wide-ranging new individualisation options perfectly complement the confident air of the legendary Maybach saloons.

Maybach is constantly expanding its portfolio of high-quality equipment and appointments options. In the 125th anniversary year of the automobile the luxury brand is exhibiting a special one-off model, the Edition 125! at the International Motor Show in Frankfurt in honour of the ingenious designer Wilhelm Maybach. This high-end luxury saloon displays many familiar and new individualisation options which only Maybach customers can select. Highlights of the saloon painted in the newly created special colours Tahiti Black/ Patagonia Silver are lavish contour lighting and the laser-engraved light motif in the front armrest, which represents the alluring double-M in a curved triangle illuminated from inside. The other new features include a glove compartment lid embroidered with the signature of Wilhelm Maybach, silver-coloured topstitching, trim in silver carbon fibre/black piano lacquer, matt black 20-inch wheels with high-sheen spokes plus a newly styled radiator grille.

All the current Maybach saloons have a confident, superior appearance and are strikingly radiant. The exceptional status enjoyed by the high-end luxury saloons finds its main emphasis in the new dominant chrome radiator grille, which is meticulously produced in two different variants. In the Maybach 57 and 62 models it has 20 fine longitudinal bars, and in the Maybach 57 S and 62 S twelve solid double louvres and a “shadow strut” flag up the vehicle’s tremendous power. Both arrow-shaped radiator grilles are also higher and boast significantly greater dimensions than before, and they have been assigned a more upright position.

Considering what they have to work with I think it looks pretty good. Definitely the best new version of a very old car.

So what are the chances Jay-Z will buy one of these? ... 125:1 ?

My goodness, are those corporate M-B rearview mirrors, which come on cars that are sub-$30K, with the new-edge angular design, on a very old and rounded 10+x more expensive Maybach?

Even though I have started to like Maybachs in that "Classic/We're not trying to keep up with anything" sense in a way, lately, I just know how desperate they are to keep up in the back of my mind. I think Kanye and Jay Z were onto something....

Maybe if you're a die-hard W220 S-class fan. Personally I feel the Maybach name deserves something that has more character; a distinctive yet dignified design.
