A long wheelbase model.  Nice.

The rear doors are so long that when they're open, you can't reach them to close them from the back seat.

So you either have your driver close it for you, or you press the button that closes the door for you.  (I shit you not.)

Come to Montreal and hang around Westmount for a while. You'll see whatever your heart desires.

One of the local big shots has two McLaren F1s (one ex-BMW LM racer, one street version), an Enzo FXX, lots of multi-million dollar classic Ferraris, two Challenger jets, etc. He owns the Ferrari dealer network and the Mont Tremblant racetrack. He takes his stuff out on the track during the historic racing weekend at Tremblant, along with every other insanely rich car-nut in the region.

Funny, I saw an identical Maybach to that one, in the parking lot of Albertson's right next to my house.  I looked at it for a while trying to figure out what it was.

It's like the owners are going through the motions of the marketing for that car.  Saturday, take the wifey to get groceries in the Maybach.  Then take the Ferrari to the canyons on Sunday.
