Maybach Exelero For Sale

One of the worlds most exclusive cars, the Maybach Exelero, is currently being offered up for sale by an Austrian dealer. The price? A substantial €5 Million ($7,848,492 or £3,958,262). The car was originally built as a one off test bed for Fulda Tyres and a marketing tool for both companies, back then it was rumoured to have cost Fulda an estimated $8 million, so the price we believ is spot on. It pays homeage to the original pre-war Maybach SW 38 which Fulda again commissioned for tyre testing and which promtly disappeared during the war years. The SW 38 has not been found since and remains somewhat of a legend. For the substantial cost, the new owner will gain a one off, retro-futuristic twin-turbo V12 that is capable of 0-62mph in 4.4 seconds and on to a top speed of 351km/h (218.38mph). Hopefully this new car will find a good home and will not go missing…
