Can you name the year and make of this car?

I took this photo outside the president's palace in Lima Perś. I don't know anything about the car except its country of origin.

Good luck!!

No way that's a Maybach.....



I'm guessing it's an imported Lexus or something else sold in Japan only.

It's not a Maybach. For starters, the gas filler door is on the wrong side to be Maybach and the front end is too stout.

Here's a closer look:

Oh, if you do figure out the year and make, please provide a picture or website to verify.
