There are only a handful of cars on Earth that are
more luxurious than a Mercedes-Maybach. It’s the ultimate S-Class, and if you
go for the S650 version, you also get a 6.0-liter twin turbo V12 engine, with
621 HP and 1,000 Nm of torque.
The power is then channeled to the rear wheel with
the help of a seven-speed automatic gearbox, propelling you towards 96
km/h in just 4.6 seconds. Not bad for something that weighs nearly 2.4 tonnes. As you can imagine, a car like this doesn’t come
cheap. In fact, U.S. buyers need to spend at least US$ 200,000 in order to land a
2019 model, and that’s without even touching the options list – very few people
would leave such a car as is without customization.
Speaking of customization, instead of worrying about
stuff like the Executive Rear Seat Package or Magic Sky Control (both factory
options), one could simply ring up Carlex Design and go all in on their
so-called Aurum Edition model. It features a more exclusive interior from the get go, with either
rose gold or yellow gold inserts, depending on what the customer would like.
All such vehicles modified by the Polish tuner will
be based on the S650 flagship, boasting Obsidian Black exteriors and Designo
Exclusive semi-aniline leather – silk beige / satin red pearl interiors. As you can see from these images, there’s gold
pretty much everywhere: steering wheel, vent surrounds, speakers, door handles,
and on nearly all of the buttons. Does it look better than stock
though? We’ll leave that up to you to decide.
