Nice to hear someone articulate the different approaches in the designs of these cars in an easily understandabe language. I often think that people doing car reviews for newspapers and non-automobile specialty magazines are more unbiased and honest than those of the expert magazine reviews. |

Interesting, sounds unbiased to me too. Thanks for the link Robert. I wish he took pictures though, I like real life pictures much better than those press pics. I noticed that the Maybach has two break calipers on the front wheel when I saw one parked the other day. That tells you how massive the car is. |

All of you can sit at the back! Jokes aside, you're right in a way. If you drive it, you would feel a little like a chauffeur, especially with people at the back seat. |
