So where is it possible to see a new Maybach in the flesh? If prospective buyers don't want to wait until fall Lebret will be happy to set up a European preview. Once the summer is over an example will be available for select clientele to experience.

And an experience it is. The Maybach 62, at approximately $570,000 (360,000 euro), has no equal. Its interior is exquisitely detailed with the focus on rear occupant luxury. A shorter wheelbase Maybach 57 is also available, offering a sportier driving experience and a slightly lower base price of about $490,000 (310,000 euro).

Maybachs will be serviced at Mercedes-Benz dealerships in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver only, therefore if a customer in a smaller city needs extensive repairs the car will be shipped to the closest major city at Maybach's expense.

Maybach is currently taking minimum $50,000 deposits on an estimated 1,000 cars per year, globally.
