AUTOart's 1:18 diecast Maybach 57S in Black recreates Mercedes-Benz's short-lived flagship marque. Opening doors and a detailed cabin bring the twin-turbo V12 sedan to a substantial 1:18 footprint.
TL;DR: AUTOart's 1:18 diecast Maybach 57S in Black reproduces the 2005 twin-turbo V12 flagship sedan, one of Mercedes-Benz's revived ultra-luxury range. Detailed opening features and a roughly 26cm saloon footprint suit a luxury-sedan display.
Mercedes-Benz revived the Maybach name in 2002 aiming squarely at Rolls-Royce and Bentley, and the 57S was the range's sportier, longer flagship. AUTOart's diecast treats that ambition seriously.
AUTOart's Diecast Approach to the 57S
AUTOart built its reputation on detail-first diecast, and this 57S shows why: doors open on hinges with real resistance rather than a loose swing, revealing a cabin trimmed with the kind of two-tone detail the real car's owners would have specified. The Black exterior carries genuine paint depth under direct light, and the long, formal saloon proportions, roughly 26cm at 1:18, give this piece a shelf presence few other sedans in a collection will match. Panel gaps stay tight along the bonnet and boot line, a hallmark of AUTOart's mid-to-premium tier positioning against mass-market diecast from other makers. This is a heavier, denser model than a compact hatchback casting, and that weight is part of the appeal when representing a car built to be driven from the back seat.
A Short-Lived Flagship Worth Remembering
Maybach as a standalone marque lasted barely a decade before Mercedes-Benz folded it back into its own lineup, which makes the 57S a genuine curiosity rather than a mainstream subject. Its twin-turbo V12 and near six-metre length were built to out-luxury anything short of a bespoke coachbuilt car, and a diecast replica captures that ambition without the running costs. Displayed beside contemporary S-Class models, the 57S makes its case as the era's ultimate expression of Mercedes-Benz engineering.
