Maybach was already

status when Daimler decided to revive the brand (which was dead since the 60s). The tried to take the easy road and remix some Benz S600s and that wasn't enough to compete against Rolls Royce/the Phantom. Yeah, JayZ name dropped it and a few celebs were seen rolling around in them, but Daimler was taking losses on each car and they just weren't selling that well especially when you can get a S600 with all the bells and whistles and the S-Class from the Maybach years fukkin looked better.
By the time Officer Ricky started up the MMG shyt, Daimler was probably happy that this motherfukker was keeping the name alive and they didn't have to pay him shyt (or give up a couple of free whips) for it even tho they could easily afford to. The brand is fukking worthless now and this latest reboot flat out didn't go well considering RR is killing the game with the Phantom, Drophead, Ghost and the Ghost coupe. Going after a fake drug trafficking rapper is probably not high on their priority list since its not helping or hurting business.
Taking him to court woulda cost them more $$ in lawyer fees alone even tho a simple cease and desist would have sufficed
