I love watching these videos so much. It's such a good balance of voice and car noises. Very few people are able to capture the true quietness of a vehicle. I cannot think of another Maybach video that depicts the amount of sound isolation the way this one does.
Thank you for this Mr. Tedward. As someone with a lot of anxiety, I often come back and watch these before bed to get to sleep. So genuinely, even if you won’t see this, I wanted to thank you.
Me too. I always loved Maybach. If Daimler hadn't so severely mismanaged the brand it would still be stand alone. I think their biggest mistake was trying to charge more than Rolls-Royce. Just the base 57 started around $375k. 😂
@@cdhilton7124 It's because the car was completely handbuilt. There was almost no production line; each car was individually assembled by technicians and craftsmen. Panel by panel, bolt by bolt. The old factory videos are very impressive and also heartbreaking because you know all those extremely talented artists were probably out of a job when production ceased in 2012. The car's prototype was unveiled in 1997 and everything in the final car except the DVD player could have been in 1997 too. Now that would most definitely have made the Rolls look a fool's choice back then...
The nice thing about Maybachs of the early 2000s was that, if you wanted to see where Mercedes was gonna take the S-Class to in the future, all you had to do was look at what Maybach was doing. This car came out when the W220 was still the king of the Mercedes lineup, yet this looks more like a W221 than anything else.
Maybach is the best and spare no expense. I can imagine being chauffeured around in that Maybach. I have had a tough week and a calm ride in the ultimate luxury home on wheels seems like a great idea.
I still remember reading a magazine from 2003, with a comparison between the Rolls-Royce Phantom and the Maybach 62. The Maybach was my favorite. I think prices are pretty good for what they offer, but my fear of the maintenance...😆 BTW, loved this quieter, night driving POV. For more vids like this! 👌
Entry pricing is on par with a G90 Ultimate. I'm able to work on the Maybach so I'd go with this. The Zeppelin trim of Maybachs are insane. Put them on your list.
THIS... looks like a perfect car for my pops ;) He always complains on the noises when I drive him, he always complains I rev the engine too high. With this car I could drive him around quite quickly without him grumbling on the revs, engine sound and other noises from the road. The only question remains unanswered - where the hell was he ever been driven around with a Maybach ;) JK, I know it's not exactly a "grandpa mobile" ;)
Could you please write on the screen the traduction in S.I. units when you’re saying numbers, because right now I understand nothing on the consumption and the weight of the car, while I’m quite interested in it But your videos are still very pleasant to watch !!
The headlights are always interesting to me in luxury or really even just more modern cars however my Subaru is from 2003, the high beams cancel out my low beams and fog lights, (all stock) making the road darker all in all and although I understand the purpose of the high beams is to illuminate further down the road they are sometimes scary to use because you loose all that close up visibility of the road. In this Maybach however it seems the high beams and low beams both illuminate at the same time or at least it looks that way from what I can see here at 15:16, where none of the closer reflectors on the road get darker when the high beams come on.
@@VMAdventures88 really? That's so interesting, they're entirely different bulbs on my car (I re read this and it sounds like I think the bulbs just get brighter on other cars or something lol, I understand that high beams and low beams are always from separate bulbs, just wanted to make it clear that this is indeed the case and the lows turn off) and clicking over to high beams turns off the lows and cancels out the fog lights, only illuminating the high beams, I wonder if something's legitimately wired wrong or something, I always thought it was odd. My only thought is it's a voltage thing, but I could see that being something on like a 1960s car, not a 2003 car. All in all I'm gonna look into this more.
@@VMAdventures88 Well after researching it a bit it seems a majority of older cars with a two bulb headlight setup indeed will do as my car does and cut power to the lows to ensure the high's are at their full brightness when they're in use. I'm pretty sure only modern cars and cars with more powerful eclectic systems in general can illuminate both at once however it also appears to really just depend on how the car is designed, there really seems to be no rule of thumb. Looking into it further, 2003 Subaru's in general are also supposed to have high beams that work like mine do so I don't think anything's wrong.
Interesting fact on the brake setup. I didn't know each front wheel had two calipers! Question though: Does that mean that the unused (emergency) caliper just sits there until the first computer fails? Just wondering how well a 16 year old caliper is going to actuate for the first time out of the blue.
I think the first caliper is just used to (normally) brake under let's say 60mph. Everything above that it uses the second caliper as well. Or when you need the make a emergency stop.
Well tedward this vehicle also was too expensive to keep producing because customers would be able to custom order these vehicles basically anyway they wanted them. So I can guarantee you there are some very unique maybach vehicles out there.
I’m from the north shore and enjoy you driving around mass. If you ever need more room to let that viper breath from your other vids id recommend any part of 93 north
Yikes @ 7:11. It's amazing how much chassis rigidity has gone up in leaps and bounds since then. I think the night drives are good for wafting types of cars.
That has little to do with rigidity. Had he been in a 90s Buick or something with very low high speed compression, it would be nearly imperceptible. Could be failing suspension parts and mounts making it worse here
@@MrCarGuy I was trying to be polite. It looked like the steering wheel shook differently than the dashboard to me. Not quite Honda Del Sol, but if that's not chassis rigidity, that would be steering shaft mounting or the rack is mounted to something with isolating mounts that are aging out.
Amazing car but not sure it was worth the premium when you could get a lighter S Class with a similar engine and in my opinion better looking. Still, it was a joy to watch not only the experience but good to know someone who actually handles the car smoothly and skilfully while being considerate at the same time in such areas as lane discipline.
One word to sum this drive up, 'THERAPEUTIC'. Bottom-end torque for the street, revs reserved for the track. I'm willing to bet that this relic is as quiet if not more so than modern day EVs at 70mph.
@@Turborider I understand but if I said it that way the comments will just be about how pretentious I am lol. So I split the difference and go with a semi correct English version
see this is the problem with so many gadgets. eventually things are going to fail and be impossible to repair. you can repair a 50 year old car to be like new. 20 year old car, not so much anymore.

Agreed, first thing I noticed
Them night and snow drives are my favorite on this Channel. Keep em coming 👌
Looking forward to some real snow!!
@@TedwardDrives can't wait for some m3 snow videos :P
'Specially the ones in your personal cars are great.
High speeds. Low RPM's. Thats the characteristics of a true night bomber.
I love this Lofi-ish type of video, the soft talking mixed with the lighting is so perfect
I love that no purple lights all over the show
People need to understand, this is not launch in 2014, it is 2004 !
Still remember it was my dream car as a kid 🤩
Early 2003. in europe.
Thank you for this Mr. Tedward. As someone with a lot of anxiety, I often come back and watch these before bed to get to sleep. So genuinely, even if you won’t see this, I wanted to thank you.

I love how you talk so soft and quiet. More like these! Hello from Finland!
theres something about an older car driving at night with its leather wrapped interior with warm air on that i cannot explain.
Definitely here for the Maybach ASMR
I need this in my life one day, idc how much it will cost me to maintain.
This car could easily throw a 10k repair bill at you on a moments notice
@@TedwardDrives Guess im gonna have to save a lot of money!
@@TedwardDrives Only makes sense if you can do the work yourself, really
@@Rick2010100 i can do it myself itll be like borderline impossible legos
@@Ciphertf2 If you need to save money for maintaining it, you are very far from being able to own it really. It's not about the initial cost.

this night drives hits different thou i like it cause its all you and nobody else plus the rain make it more relaxing
I can only dream of what doing a 350 mile roadtrip on this thing would feel like. What a beast.
You really need to do more night time POVs :D its really ASMR for car guys

this brings me back to early 2000 , awesome
That Maybach is better than any Trolls Royce.

Hey Tedward, this is my favorite car of all time! The maybach 57
I was like a baby falling asleep on a car ride 🤣 White noise on point.
still my my dream car
Man would love a ride in one of those some day

Watching this while waiting for the oils change at the car repair shop
Awesome vid man! 🔥
Very excited for the full review on this one. I wanna see what all those buttons do 😂
wow me and Tedward listen to the same radio station
Winter is coming.
A beautiful 😍 car for sure, reminds me of the last real Rolls-Royce ,the Silver Seraph ,from 1998-2002,just a little longer...
Nice Car.
08:50 Tedward fart
😂
This car has aged better than I have ... and it's a year older than I am.
Wold take this over the new w223 s class.
I think it would be interesting if you can do a pov of a fisker karma, anyway keep up the good work!

Nothing to do with the chassis junk american highway system that hasn't been properly repaired in fifty years
This looks way more classy than today's, tacky Maybachs.
hey can you drive a deawoo matiz
Just drove my CLK550 Coupe on a 50 miles night drive, certainly no Maybach. But there are similarities
Yes, it has air in the tires.
@@VMAdventures88 🤣😂

Way more quiet than modern luxury BEVs. The amount of sound dampening material in this car is nuts
no automatic headlights ?
It has them but I never leave cars in the auto setting. Not sure why but I prefer to engage myself
@@TedwardDrives I guess old habits die hard. Great vids btw
wow
I drive the 2011 57s V12 6.0 liter with 620 hp/738 lbs-ft torque. Why would you drive this in the snow?
There’s so many buttons in that interior, it looks like Concorde.
7:12 oops what's that noise
Is it 57 the shorter and smaller car?
Yes the 57 is the smaller of the two
if you ever get a rolls royce could u make a night drive vid plzzz
i could start a podcast in a maybach and no one would know due to how quiet it is
