Rolls-Royce chasing
Recently purchased a Mercedes-Maybach S-class, but in hindsight would you rather have waited for the S 63 AMG? Don’t worry, because tuner Mansory had a blast on the Maybach. The result is a top limousine with which you will be the boss of many AMG.
To start, Mansory mounts a carbon fiber body kit on the Mercedes-Maybach. The trapezoidal tailpipe trims in the rear bumper almost give you the impression that you are dealing with a Mercedes-AMG product. The diffuser is also quite extreme, with a central rear fog light as the main attention grabber. The front bumper is no less modest with its large air intakes and pronounced front spoiler. To further accentuate the air inlets, they are lined with an LED strip. Furthermore, Mansory takes the grinder and the body of the top limousine gets extra ‘cooling slots’ in the front fender and behind the rear wheels. The side skirts meanwhile come out so far that you can almost use them as a running board. Mansory’s latest creation also sits on 22-inch alloy wheels.
‘Lie down, sir’
The interior is also not spared by Mansory. The tuner covers the entire interior entirely according to the customer’s wishes. In this case, the complete interior is bright white with shiny black accents. With the armchairs in the back, the interior shown almost resembles a dental practice. Fortunately, there is still some room for fun, because Mansory provides the roof of the Maybach with a starry sky à la Rolls-Royce.
No tuning package from Mansory is complete without some extra power. The S 580 with 4.0 V8 gets almost 100 hp and comes out at 600 hp. The torque increases by 120 Nm to 720 Nm. The top model is the S 680 with 6.0 V12, which, after a power cure from Mansory, produces 720 hp and no less than 1,000 Nm of torque. You should be able to save it against an S 65 AMG. The price of the entire treatment is on request, but a standard S 580 already costs more than €230,000 in the Netherlands. For an S 680 you have lost €319,000.
