What car is it?

This is Maybach Exelero, a high-performance unique sports car first built in 2004. This 700 hp (522 kW) as a chopped-down 2-seat coupé with a twin turbo V12 engine is a car designed by Maybach-Motorenbau GmbH, on request for Fulda Tires, the German division of Goodyear. Fulda used this car as a reference vehicle to test a new generation of wide tires.

The German luxury car manufacturer created the Maybach Exelero as a modern interpretation of its legendary streamlined sports car from the 1930s. So, the Exelero was tested at the Nardo high-speed oval test track, where it reached the maximum speed of 218.38 mph (351.5 km/h), which is very impressive for a car that weighs no less than 2.9 tons.

This specific model measures 5890 mm in length, 2140 mm in width and 1390 mm in height and was purchased with a full-spec interior, with neoprene, aluminum, carbon fiber finishes and leather, by rapper Bryan “Birdman” Williams for $8 million in 2011.

Janet Kepler Maurer, You are not educated in every aspect of life. No one is, but that is what galls you. It is not a bad question; simply one you can't answer, out of ignorance because of a lack of interest in the subject matter. It is entirely as fair as trivia questions about sports, art, history, politics, geography, chemistry, math, or any other subject. Everyone has weaknesses in one field of study or another. It seems questions are always unfair to those who can't answer them. What's unfair is blaming a question for your own inability to answer it. You are not a victim here; simply one who came across a question on a subject about which they know nothing. Either educate yourself or move on, but don't carp about unfairness. Life is unfair, but this question is not.

It's a good trivia question. I had no idea. It seems that quite a few people are into Expensive cars tho. Personally, I think it's a waste of money to buy any of these vehicles. But, if you have the funds, buy what makes you Happy.

Janet Kepler Maurer, Perhaps this is more up your ally, what does the "ONT" on a spool of Coats & Clark thread mean? In point of fact this Maybach is a lot more attractive than those goofy looking French Bugatti's of the 30's.
