2027 Mercedes-Maybach S 680

“The chance to design my own customized Mercedes-Maybach was something I never even dreamed of as a young kid growing up in Akron. To now have the opportunity to uplift my community and the families we serve through this auction means everything to my Foundation as we continue to build an ecosystem of supports that allows them to live out their dreams as well.” — LEBRON JAMES “Creating only the very best from the very best, of lasting value, in the highest form of perfection.” This credo of Wilhelm and Karl Maybach has guided the creation of automotive masterpieces for over a century. Today, the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class represents the fullest expression of that philosophy, combining exceptional performance, craftsmanship, and comfort in an imposing flagship sedan. The 2027 Mercedes-Maybach S 680 is the epitome of this philosophy, combining a 6.0-liter V-12 engine producing a remarkable 621 hp with a fully immersive luxury interior. Tailored with no fewer than 41 luxury-focused features, its cabin is designed to provide an exceptionally comfortable experience for every occupant. As impressive as the standard S 680 may be, this remarkable example takes exclusivity to an entirely different level. Working closely with Mercedes- Benz’s MANUFAKTUR Made to Measure program, NBA superstar LeBron James commissioned and designed this 2027 S 680 to his exact specifications. One of just two Mercedes-Maybachs custom-designed and built for James, the car was individualized in virtually every aspect, resulting in a singular specification that reflects his personal taste, family, and connection to his hometown. The exterior is presented in MANUFAKTUR Exklusive "Light Ivory," creating a striking contrast with the MANUFAKTUR Made to Measure “Stormy Weather Blue” Nappa leather interior with MANUFAKTUR Made to Measure "Porcelain" contrast stitching. James’ distinctive “LJ” crown logo is incorporated throughout the vehicle, appearing on the front fenders as well as the headrests and floorboards. Further bespoke touches include personalized floor mats, cushions, door sills, and special-finish 20" Maybach forged wheels with floating center caps. These bespoke elements transform an already exclusive Mercedes-Maybach into an unmistakably personal commission, with details carefully selected to distinguish it from any standard production example. Beyond its bespoke finishes, this S 680 is exceptionally well appointed. Its extensive specification includes the Executive Rear Seat Package Plus, 10-degree rear-axle steering, AIRMATIC suspension, a panoramic sunroof, and the Burmester High-End 4D Surround Sound System. Rear passengers benefit from executive seating with heating, ventilation, massage, heated neck and shoulder areas, calf massage and support, power sunshades, and four-zone climate control. Further personalization provides an even deeper connection to James and his family. The center console is inscribed with “41.081757, -81.511452” – the coordinates of Akron, Ohio. More than simply another personalized flourish, the inscription serves as a meaningful reminder of James’ enduring ties to the community where he was raised and the very community that will benefit from the sale of this extraordinary automobile. Offered through the LeBron James Family Foundation, this Mercedes-Maybach presents an opportunity that extends well beyond acquiring one of the world’s most luxurious automobiles. Proceeds from its sale will benefit the foundation and its efforts in the Akron, Ohio community, adding a philanthropic dimension to the car’s already remarkable story. With its one-off color scheme, extensive personalization, and direct connection to one of the most celebrated athletes of his generation, this 2027 Mercedes-Maybach S 680 is far removed from a conventional production example. For the collector seeking a unique expression of contemporary luxury with remarkable provenance and charitable significance, this bespoke S 680 represents an opportunity not to be overlooked. Please note that the hammer price from the sale of this vehicle will benefit the LeBron James Family Foundation. The Foundation may issue a charitable contribution receipt for the portion of the hammer price, if any, exceeding the midpoint of the pre-sale estimate. Any such receipt will be issued solely by the Foundation.
