# Supercar Extension Hacks Stretched Maybach 72 Has Limo-Style Back Seats By Going Like Sixty | Published 2008-12-17 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supreme-luxe-limo-maybach-stretched-because-750000-doesnt-buy-enough-room References: [autoblog](http://www.autoblog.com/2008/12/12/the-six-seat-maybach-72-when-62-decimeters-just-isnt-enough/) This Maybach 72 is the result of an [extreme customization job](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mulliner) that extended the original [Daimler](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/econic) Maybach 62 to include a limousine-style backseat. About 3 feet were added to the original car as well as a couple seats that face the rear. This [supercar hack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/project-viva) catapulted the vehicle’s price tag from an already hefty $390,000 to $780,000. I’d love it if my honey got me a Maybach 72, with some extra leg room because she knows her big boy needs his room. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.7/10 - Popularity: 74% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Customization:** Opportunity for businesses to offer extreme customization services for luxury cars, catering to customers who want unique and personalized vehicles. - **Luxury Vehicle Accessories:** Potential for businesses to develop and market specially designed accessories for luxury cars, such as limousine-style backseats, that enhance the comfort and exclusivity of the vehicle. - **Supercar Price Surge:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for businesses to capitalize on the growing demand for high-end customized supercars, offering unique features and driving up the price tag significantly. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive Customization:** Automotive customization industry can tap into the trend of extreme customization and offer tailored services for customers looking to modify their luxury cars. - **Luxury Car Accessories:** Luxury car accessories industry can develop and market exclusive add-ons that enhance the luxurious experience and comfort of high-end vehicles like the Maybach 72. - **Limited Edition Supercars:** Opportunity for limited edition supercar manufacturers to create customized, high-performance vehicles with unique features that cater to the desires of affluent car enthusiasts. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sustainable Off-Road Coupes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/project-maybach.md) - [Luxury Dual-Cab Pickup Trucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gwagen-crew-cab-by-pit26-motorsports.md) - [Ruggedly Sleek Auto Updates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/expedition-motor-company.md) - [Modified Luxury Vehicle Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modified-luxury-vehicle.md) - [Long-Tail Luxury Hypercars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/huayra-codalunga.md) - [Masterfully Modified SUVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modified-suv.md) - [Dazzling Rose-Hued SUVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mercedes-gclass-stronger-than-diamonds-edition.md) - [Entertainment-Integrated Luxe Vans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vision-v.md) - [Uniquely Personalizable Supercars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/765lt-spider.md)
