	maybach 57 and 62 - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
		The 57 and 62 were the first models produced by Maybach after the automobile brand's revival.
		The model numbers reflect the respective lengths of the automobiles in decimetres; the 57 is more likely to be owner-driven while the longer 62 is designed with a chauffeur in mind.
		This makes the Brabus Maybach arguably the fastest super-luxurious motorcar in the world, a trend which was started in 1968 by the Mercedes-Benz 300SEL 6.3.

	Maybach 57 & 62 - Gizmo Highway Auto Guide
		The model names Maybach 57 and Maybach 62 are a reference to the imposing length of the unique Saloons, whose body lengths of 5.73 and 6.17 metres respectively translate into unrivalled space and comfort.
		In addition to this, the Maybach 62 is equipped with newly developed individual seats in the rear, which can be adjusted into an extremely comfortable reclining position, with extending leg and footrests, all at the touch of a button.
		Mercedes-Benz and Maybach have always had a great deal in common: Wilhelm Maybach was the technical director on the Board of the Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft (DMG), as it was then known, and in 1901 developed the first ever Mercedes which was to become the blueprint for all modern-day passenger cars.

	2006 Maybach 62 Reviews - ForbesAutos.com
		The Maybach 62 (pronounced "MY-bock") is the top model — an extended version of the 57 sedan — and is among the most opulent and expensive cars on the planet.
		Unlike the shorter 57 model, which masquerades as a car that owners might actually drive — though Maybach says hardly any owners ever do — the extended 62 model is intended as a chauffeur's car.
		As is the case with yachts, the numeric nomenclature refers to the cars' lengths — 5.73 meters for the Maybach 57 and 6.16 meters for the Maybach 62.

	Maybach 57 - Ultimatecarpage.com forums
		At the "Mondial de l'Automobile Paris 2002", the luxury automobile brand Maybach is unveiling two high-end saloons to the European public: the Maybach 62 - which already made its much-acclaimed world debut in New York in early July - and the Maybach 57, which is being presented for the first time.
		The Maybach defines the standards at the very peak of the passenger car market, at the same time continuing the tradition of the legendary Maybach automobiles which were among the elite in German and international automotive engineering together with Mercedes-Benz during the 1920s and 1930s.
		The Maybach's high level of active safety is assisted by the innovative Sensotronic Brake Control (SBC) braking system developed by Mercedes-Benz, which features two central control units, two high-pressure reservoirs and two hydraulic units in the case of the Maybach.

		Or more specifically, the backseat, complete with reclining function, of the Maybach 62, the long-wheelbase version (there's a slightly less expensive, 18.9-foot-long "57" as well) of the car that Mercedes considers the pinnacle of its automotive abilities.
		I learn more about the Maybach's driving characteristics a day later when it's my turn behind the wheel (albeit this is the smaller 18.9-foot-long version that's intended for the well-to-do who prefer to drive themselves).
		Basically every Maybach owner's attendant, the PLM, manages every aspect of the ownership experience from the initial purchase (which can involve a trip to the factory to individually spec your car as well as an elaborate color demonstration kit in every dealership) to any and all follow-up service.

		At the same time, the brand is continuing the tradition of the legendary Maybach cars of the 1920s and 30s, which stood alongside Mercedes-Benz models as some of the finest examples of automotive excellence worldwide.
		Ground-breaking innovations which, prior to the revival of the legendary Maybach name, were found exclusively in Mercedes cars have been further developed and fitted as standard in the luxury Maybach Saloons.
		Maybach customers can put their personal stamp on the interior, with a choice of six shades of Grand nappa leather plus three types of high-quality wood, while the paintwork is available in 17 colour shades which can also be combined to create a two-tone finish — another elegant hallmark of the Maybach.

		The bigger selling base model, Maybach 57, measures 2 meters in width, 1.6 meters in height, 3.4 meters in wheelbase and 5.7 meters in length, the latter gives its model no. It is considerably bigger than a Rolls-Royce Silver Seraph or Bentley Arnage.
		Maybach has its own chassis, but major components are sourced from Mercedes' parts pool to reduce cost, despite of its price at £280,000.
		At 2780kg kerb weight, the Maybach 62 is of course a heavyweight saloon but not too heavy.

	Maybach - - Car and Driver - January 2003
		After all, paying a Maybach 62 chauffeur's salary is probably equivalent to the price of a nice Lexus each year, since you don't want some itinerant Town Car jockey handling a machine worth as much as a good lightplane.
		Rumor has it that a considerable proportion of initial Maybach deposits have been placed by pro athletes and rap singers, and some wonder whether this is the image the brand wants to project.
		Actually, it is. Maybach sees its core market not as stuffy, reticent old money but as "remarkable people who have achieved remarkable things in their lives." The Maybach's "confidential marketing plan," which is already circulating on the Internet, describes the typical buyer as "very mobile, highly individualistic [people who want to] demonstrate their social status.

		Okay, the Maybach is electronically limited to 155 mph, although on the autobahn we twice saw an indicated 163, but the monster is said to have done 185 without the limiter.
		The Maybach 57 is 18.8 feet long, and the 62 runs just over 20 feet.
		We'll get the 62 out of the way by telling you that the van-size rear doors swing out so far they're well out of reach of the seated passengers and need to be shut by either an attentive chauffeur or a switch on the roof.

		Maybach says its customers, about half of them in the U.S., have demanded more of a driver's car, and this is its response.
		AMG's 6.0-liter twin-turbo V-12 in the 57 S is a larger, modified version of the 57's 5.5-liter, 36-valve twin-turbo, and it's the same engine used in the S65 AMG.

	CanadianDriver's New Car Buyer's Guide: Maybach 57/62
		For 2006, the Maybach receives a high-performance edition, the 57 S. It stands for “Special”, and this model is: it carries a turbocharged 6.0-litre V12 that makes 612 horsepower, and with a stiffer suspension for performance-oriented driving.
		Produced by DaimlerChrysler, the Maybach’s two models are named for their lengths of 5.7 and 6.2 metres respectively.
		The basic 57 and 62 are incredibly powerful, the 57 S more so, but don’t expect them to make a dent in Ferrari or Lamborghini sales; this is like sitting in a living room that moves, albeit very quickly.

		Most American customers will opt for the shorter 57, while heads of state, captains of industry and others who prefer to be driven will delight in the limousine-like 62.
		Despite their size, however, the Maybachs feel much like the S-Class, which means impeccable road manners, high levels of active safety and surprising performance for such a large platform.
		Mercedes says the 57 can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in just 5.2 sec., and nothing from my day's drive in the car would indicate that's an unrealistic number.

		Maybach also retuned the air suspension, lowered the ride height by 0.6 inch, and fitted thicker antiroll bars and twenty-inch wheels.
		The 57S is better to drive than the standard Maybach 57 or 62 or the Rolls, but the Audi A8 and the Mercedes S-class are more entertaining.

		Despite the Maybach name, there's little attempt to hide the fact that this car is the quarter-million-pound pinnacle of the Mercedes-Benz line.
		Maybach engineers probably see their main opposition as the Rolls, though, since it was designed from scratch by BMW.
		In contrast, the Maybach is designed along exactly the same principles as the S-Class, even if its steering, brakes and powertrain are specially selected for the Maybach's immense size and weight, and its comfort orientation.

		Based on the already-big-for-a-sedan Maybach 57, the gargantuan coupe was created for German tire maker Fulda as a high-speed test bed (and, we suspect, a bit of a publicity stunt...and a successful one at that).
		The "S", according to Maybach, stands for "special", and the 62 S joins the standard 62, the 57 S and the standard 57 as the fourth model in the Maybach line-up (at least until the anticipated "junior" model arrives).
		The 62 S is scheduled to make its debut at the Beijing show later this month, a shrewd move by DCX considering the mushrooming luxury market in China and their love of stretched sedans over there.
