The Mercedes-Maybach SL 680 Monogram Series

Mercedes-Maybach SL 680 Monogram Series: The First Maybach Roadster

Maybach has spent decades defining ultra-luxury in an enclosed sedan. When Mercedes-Benz applied that same obsessive craft to an open-top roadster, the result was the SL 680 Monogram Series — a genuine first in the brand’s history and one of the most opulent drop-tops ever produced. You can see it now at Vegas Auto Gallery.

What Makes It a Monogram

The Monogram Series designation signals the highest expression of the Maybach SL. The hand-finished interior carries the signature Maybach monogram pattern across surfaces that would be plain leather in lesser cars. The craftsmanship is closer to couture than coachbuilding. Beneath the bonnet, a 4.0-litre biturbo V8 produces around 577 horsepower — but the SL 680 is never in a hurry. Its character is unhurried command.

A Roadster for a Different Standard

The SL has anchored the Mercedes lineup since 1954, with each generation defining open-top luxury for its era. The Maybach interpretation elevates the formula entirely — a rolling private suite rather than merely a premium convertible, with a retractable top that brings near-saloon quiet to the cabin.

  • First Mercedes-Maybach roadster
  • 4.0-litre biturbo V8, around 577 horsepower
  • Signature Maybach monogram pattern throughout the hand-finished interior

Guests who encounter the SL 680 Monogram in our flagship showroom tend to stop talking — the quality speaks before any spec sheet can. Nick Dossa built the gallery so cars like this sit naturally alongside Rolls-Royce and Bentley, supported by a VIP buying experience to match.

The first Maybach roadster does not just raise the bar for open-top luxury — it defines a new category.
