Mercedes Maybach, Extreme Fur Edition…..

[Joe Handley]

Ran across this tonight, had to watch it due to the title of the video…………for some reason, that interior is giving me George Barris vibes……

Yeah, all I could think is that this looked like Mercedes took one of Barris’ ideas and classes it up a bit. Too bad half the paint choice is so bland (I can’t stand any version of that color) and the wheels are ugly no matter what the final finish they’re in is.

I think this is an equally classy look for the exterior, and hey...it's got gold wheels!!!

Isn't most of this car's market under economic sanctions right now?

I’m sure there’s other oil producing nations that aren’t at this time, though they are a whole lot warmer than there?

 

On a side note, one of the commentators on that video asked if the fur (which is fake) was a Polar Bear or 1000 Persian Cats……….

I couldn’t help myself and commented “Woolly Nauga”

I might have that beat with this puzzling example of automotive science:

Try replicating that Maharajah's Rolls Royce in model form. What a challenge that would be!

They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That probably accounts for the Loads of Money But No Taste Did You See Me? brigade who get cars made with the most gaudy paint and trim imaginable.I

The Mercedes Maybach in the video looks tasteful on the outside but the interior looks like something out of a cartoon. Tasteless and Tacky in the extreme.

Just imagine the bath you might take on resale when a “regular” person sees that.  Weird and boring color combo on the outside, and almost Barris like over the top inside…….no thanks!
