This isn’t your regular Benz. It’s the first-ever Maybach convertible sports car, and Davido reportedly will pay a total cost of ₦1.2 billion to bring it into Nigeria. The base price of the car is around $250,000 according to CarandDriver, but once you factor in shipping, customs, clearing, and all the Nigerian import taxes, the final cost triples. And somehow, Davido got it even before the official release date. OBO too get connect!
So, what makes this car so special? The Maybach SL680 isn’t just fast — it’s a whole vibe. It’s got a powerful V8 engine with over 570 horsepower, yet it’s wrapped in smooth luxury. We’re talking a sleek two-door convertible, custom two-tone paint, and a plush interior laced with premium white leather. Maybach logos are stamped everywhere — no dull moment inside this ride. It's not the kind of car you see every day, even overseas. Only a handful of people worldwide will get their hands on one, and guess what? Davido is already cruising it before the rest of the world.
And what’s even crazier? This news is landing just a day after Burna Boy shook the internet with his own big-boy purchase — the ₦3.2 billion 2019 McLaren Senna Exposed Carbon. Looks like Nigeria’s top stars are not just competing on the charts, but also in the garage!
With this purchase, this 2026 Mercedes-Maybach SL680 now becomes the most expensive car in his garage. It even beats his Rolls-Royce Cullinan and Spectre in value. Fans have been going wild online, praising him for being steps ahead of everyone — and rightly so. It’s not every day you see someone cruising a car that hasn’t even launched.
Welcome!
