Also saw a pristine 2nd gen Scirocco 16V, older guy driving it - not many left like that. Nothing else caught my eye, hot here, many old cars original to the area lack AC, so they might not be out.
I dunno...maybe $250 a month to keep a Maybach on the road with maintenance and normal expendables?
Probably far worse is the catastrophic depreciation.

I wonder when dual mirrors became normal (even if optional, just ordered on most cars), maybe around 1980?
They depreciated a lot, but have a high floor, just like a Rolls-Royce, where even the most boring malaise Shadow is still worth 10K even if imperfect. I think a reasonably immaculate 04 S600 might be worth 15K today, and when new cost about a third of the Maybach. If they had equal depreciation, that would put the Maybach around 45K, not the 80K they want for it. However, I am pretty sure the real value of the car isn't 80K.
I know of a guy who has a very early (1967) Shadow. He bought it from a long term owner who had the suspension and brakes overhauled before he bought it. It has apparently had few faults in his ownership. That's the kind to get,
Every blue moon or so I will see one on the road. Another car with a very high depreciation floor.

pet peeve is the hoods up and trunks up making it difficult to get good looking pictures. Sunday at a
GM only show at a Hamilton Buick dealer a rain squall went through. The show handlers asked everyone to close their trunks and hoods and come into the building for safety.
Hoods down!!! I waited for the rain squall to quit. Ran out and got good pictures of about half the cars that I had liked with hoods and trunks down. Other cars had left ahead of the rain.
My favorite is this. The color is off--it's a light yellow that has a green tone in it

Look around a little more to see if you can find a Blackwood.
I wonder what the overhaul schedule is for an old RR hydraulic system - every 40-50K miles or so?
The transmissions are GM I think (in a RR case) so that should be okay. The engine is an outdated V-8 with all kinds of problems.
Best thing to do with one of these is just to sit in it and make vroom-vroom noises. The interiors are lovely to just inhale.

Quite a lot of this kind of thing out there.
suspect it has a different suspension and a different engine. Just like the old days.

In hindsight, I think Mavericks were not nearly as nice as the concurrent Novas and Dart/Valiant models.
I remember being struck by how cheap the base model interiors looked with the plaid upholstery and little chrome outside. The ones in the showroom with the optional decor groups that had better seats and trim were nicer. But overall I remember being underwhelmed. They sold like crazy though. I suspect because of the low low price and not so much because they were any kind of great car.
