I was thinking the same thing. Odd as I thought I was going to hate the Maybach version.

The Maybauch looks much better then the standard MB setup. No offense to anyone who likes it, but with the exception of hyperscreen dash, the rest of the interior was underwhelming. Still higher grade than Tesla, but that's not saying much unfortunately....
