Compensating for what? Something so large must be compensating for something self-perceived to be so small.

It would be amazing to see it with a two-tone paint job.

If this does see the light of day, I do hope Bugatti and Rolls Royce will do something this grandiose.

I want one! I hope they do make this, the S-Coupe rear seats leg room is not that good.

Two tone would be a good AARP version
Don't get me wrong, it will look good for the intended target customers

The last Maybach did have a two-tone paint scheme (most commonly black and burgundy)...and it didn't necessarily sell to geezers.

Mercedes is seriously killing the game, always more and more impressed with what they're doing. If I don't get the LC500 next year, I will probably wait for the 2018 Mercedes CLS.
