Maybach - [This is what Mukesh Ambani ( Chairman Of Reliance ) bought for Rs. 5.25 crores]

What is a Maybach?
A Maybach is a high-end, ultra-luxury sedan. It can hold up to four passengers in regal splendor. Prices range from $300,000 to $400,000.

The Maybach comes in two models -- the Maybach 57 and the Maybach 62. The 57 is 5.7 meters long, and the 62 is 6.2 meters long, hence the model names. The two models are very nearly identical except for the length. The extra length of the 62 is used to increase the rear seat leg room.
The Maybach 62 also offers several options unavailable in the 57. For example, the 62 has fully reclining rear seats because it has extra leg room available in the rear to accommodate them.

The 62 also offers a huge skylight in the roof (known officially as the electro-transparent panoramic glass roof).

The laminated glass pane on the inside of the panoramic roof contains a layer of liquid crystal foil made from electrically conductive polymer material which becomes transparent when AC voltage is applied.

The glass in this skylight can be electronically changed between clear, frosted or completely opaque depending on your mood.
