Nice Price Or Crack Pipe: 2004 Maybach 57 For $129,900?
Last time we chose between the gold bars and Booth Numbah Two, the $15,500 Mercedes-Benz 420SEL grabbed a stunning 90% rating on the Crack-Pipe-O-Meter™. The global economy is taking body blow after body blow, which you'd think would knock the price of high-end used cars down to Prole Territory… but such is not the case with this 2004 Maybach 57. It's out of warranty, it's got 32,000 miles, and it's a manufacturer buyback car (as the seller puts it: "MAYBACH HAD BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE FROM THE OWNER UPON LEMON LAW AND THEN COMPLETELY FIXED THE PROBLEM. SO YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES AT ALL!!")… and it's priced at $129,900. The Maybach 57 is a helluva car, and you'll pay way over 300 grand for a new one; do you think this is a Nice Price for an '04?
