The trademark of the brand can be associated with the remarkable splendor it presents. Queen Elizabeth II encased the new generation of Maybach across the Atlantic on the first-class sun deck, to soon arrive in New York City; it was later cautiously delivered to its destination by helicopter. This Maybach reinvented the legacy of Maybach motorcars from the 1920s and 30s during its debut, also raising the bar for passenger motorcars. 

The Maybach 62 S (Spezial) gets its name from the fact that it is exactly 6.2 meters long. The interior of the 62 S, as Maybach puts it, is “a world of superlatives”, presenting an incredibly refined and peaceful setting crafted from only the best materials and painstakingly hand-crafted with unmatched attention to detail. The interior has over 100 specifically placed pieces of exquisite wood trim, along with 210 separate leather compartments. Underneath its grandiose exterior, a specifically engineered twin-turbocharged “M285” Type 12 6.0-liter V12 engine may be found which produces a grand 620 horsepower and a staggering 738 lb-ft of torque.

This top-of-the-line 62 S model finished in Baltic Black over an Aspen White Leather interior comes with its perks; extremely light use with the mileage coming in at 4,680 during cataloging, a service history file, and a clean CARFAX. In 2010, the 62 S underwent a styling update, and by its final year, it increased to slightly over $470,000. Some of the basic amenities this car contains could not be found in competing brands. The 62 S became the luxury standard bearer with features such as electronically controlled dual air suspension, reclining rear seats with leg and footrests, integral seats with massage function, rear folding tables, Keyless-Go, and power closing doors and trunk lid. To set apart the 62 S from the generic 62, the radiator grille featured a twin louver design, along with the headlamp surrounds being painted in the vehicle color. Still on file and accessible for review is a build sheet and service records from Mercedes-Benz of Paramus and Mercedes-Benz of Nanuet, which began in 2020 at 3,188 miles. 

Every Maybach 62 S is a highly customized vehicle, and this particular one has several notable extras when they were installed when it was new, such as the Glass Sunroof with Solar Panel Package, 20-inch 11-spoke wheels, and a Partition Wall with Intercom Package among other additional cost options. Between the back seats is a refrigerator and headphones for those who sit in these extremely high-quality seats. The final Maybach continues to uphold Wilhelm Maybach’s renowned quote, “To create the very best from the very best”. 

Take the wheel, and let this Maybach 62 S ignite your
automotive dreams like never before.
