In case the RS6 turns out to be too small :)

13,6 and 16 Zylinder (:p) with 1000PS.. not bad at all :D.. interesting that this much Zylinder won`t be in use all the time only if all the power is wanted :) and of course nice design.. and the front.. sooooooooooooooooooo long :eek:.. cool :D..

give me a break, the concept car was completed just a day before the auto show began.

it's just a show car, nothing more. and it is near impossible that GM would even think about putting it into production.

and you think such car can be a Maybach...?

In a Dutch magazine they said that the Sixteen would demote the Maybach to an ordinair Mercedes :D

Anyone who thinks this hideous piece of crap will even come close to the Maybach must be smoking obscene amounts of crack.

actually i read a intresting article (no, i do not think the car itself is intresting) about this SIXTEEN. apperantly, GM wants to build it, and the pulic response in the show was somehow positive. thus i guess the chance of this car to see the day of light in production form is quite big. what the heck is this world coming to, i think we'll probably see a THIRTY-SIX in the next Detroit auto show from FORD (since they haven't have any ultra-luxury car yet).

anyway, my point is that one of the top guy in GM stated that the car is actually not really in the segment of Maybech or the new RR Phantom. in fact it is somewhat like a more luxurious version of Mercedes-Benz's S-Klasse. simply put, it is more like a S-Klasse PLUS.

here's my thought
"WAKE UP!! BIGGER IS NOT ALWAYS BETTER" well, at least not car anyway.:devil:
