Re: Is A Compact Version Of The Maybach Coming?

That could work Lu.

Daimler-Chrysler almost created a brand by accident with the Maybach. Originally the Maybach was intended to be one "top-of-the-line" model, the Mercedes Maybach. Now, because they chose to resurrect the Maybach brand, they face a strange situation where they want to expand the range of vehicles that technically compete with Mercedes-Benz. The CL, for instance might be cheaper than Bentley GT, Ferrari 612, or Rolls-Royce Corniche, but it still actually is a competitor in that market -- and out-sells it's competitors (and not just because of it's price). Maybach makes things a little bit messy for Mercedes in my opinion -- I think Maybach should remain as a single model, the top limousine -- leave the super coupes and SUVs to Mercedes. Why would DCX build the MM Exelero [for example] when Mercedes-Benz have the SLR -- it just doesn't make a lot of sense.
