Because they can afford expensive sedans

The starting price for the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class Sedan has been announced.

It is $184,900.

Starting price.

Other stuff extra. (E.g., heated and cooled cupholders–which is something that Chrysler had on offer years ago–a refrigerated compartment–hello, Ford Flex–and custom champagne flutes and built-in holders–OK, we’ll give that one to Merc.)

We’ll leave it there.

It could be noted that the destination and delivery line item adds $1,050 to the price.

But if you’d even notice that you aren’t in the market for the S-Class.
