Neither do I Bro. They are both amazing, comfortable and powerful cars. I like the way the Rolls-Royce stands out in looks tho.
The Mercedes-Maybach still looks like the Mercedes-Benz. So someone driving a Mercedes-Benz S350 (W222) would wanna feel equal to the Maybach owner especially here in Nigeria that people do not know how to identify cars properly.

Below are pictures of the Mercedes-Maybach S600 and the interior.
The one with the seat in front is the PULLMAN Version.

There is now a Mercedes-Maybach S650 that's for 2018 (Maybe to challenge the Rolls-Royce Phantom Series III
