Hello, this is Double Look, your automotive influencer.
Not long ago, I visited a Mercedes-Benz showroom and had the chance to see the 'Mercedes-Maybach S680'.
After seeing only the black Maybach models, I was struck by the deep brown color of this one.
Seeing it displayed alone in the Maybach zone made me unexpectedly desire to own it.
Today, I’ll introduce you to this car, which only the truly wealthy can afford—the Mercedes-Benz S680!
Experience overwhelming comfort, quietness, and the powerful performance of a V12 engine!
The Benz Maybach S680 features a 6.0L V12 biturbo engine,
delivering an impressive output of 630 horsepower and a maximum torque of 91.8 kg·m.
You can find this engine specification in high-end models like Rolls-Royce sedans,
but it is exclusively available in the Maybach lineup among Mercedes-Benz models.
Despite being a large sedan, its powerful engine enables it to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds, making you want to take it for a spin.
The V12 engine not only provides powerful performance but also ensures a smooth and quiet driving experience.
You can enjoy the ultimate driving sensation.
I spoke with an actual owner of the Benz Maybach S680,
who mentioned that the quietness and smoothness of the ride are on a completely different level compared to the V8 engine.
I previously test drove the Maybach S580 with a V8 engine and was 200% satisfied with the driving experience,
but I can’t even imagine what the S680 feels like.
The luxurious feel of the Mercedes-Maybach S680 sets it apart from the Mercedes-Benz S-Class!
While the Mercedes-Benz S-Class is certainly luxurious,
the Maybach offers a higher level of opulence.
You will experience a unique luxury class from the Maybach-exclusive chrome grille, the three-pointed star emblem, and the Maybach patterns on the exterior.
The rear seats of the S680 rival those of first-class airline cabins or VIP lounges,
featuring executive seats with reclining capabilities, powered supports, top-quality Nappa leather,
wooden finishes, and a refrigerator, creating an ultra-luxurious lounge feel rather than just a means of transportation.
The rarity of the Maybach S680! Only for the truly wealthy!
Those who choose the Benz Maybach S680 value rarity and symbolism over just owning an expensive car.
They say it’s not enough to simply have money to purchase this model, as the number of buyers is limited.
The Maybach zone I filmed in only allows entry to those who made reservations in advance,
and they seek out individuals who truly belong in the highest luxury class.
A luxury sedan that offers more than just a smooth ride!
The Mercedes-Maybach S680 sedan stands out with its impressive size, luxurious design,
and unique appeal, making it a top choice for the truly wealthy.
The price of the Mercedes-Maybach S680 is 384.9 million KRW, which is approximately $290,000 USD,
making it 136.4 million KRW, or about $102,000 USD, higher than the Mercedes-Benz S580 model.
The acquisition tax alone costs 24.49 million KRW, and when you include public bond amounts and additional costs, the actual purchase price reaches 413.64 million KRW, or about $310,000 USD.
Today, I shared photos and prices of the Mercedes-Maybach S680 taken at the Maybach zone in the Benz showroom,
and discussed the reasons behind choosing this car.
Given the high price tag, this large sedan is reserved for the wealthy,
but hearing owners say that the V12 engine is incomparable to the V8 makes me want to experience it as well.
If I get the chance, I’ll return with a test drive of the S680.
