The car came from the factory with one. The check engine lite should be lit if the MAF is disconnected, unless somebody did some jury rigging. The car will run without a MAF, but it will run better with one.

The car is designed to work without a MAF, it uses the MAP sensor to control engine management. Cars designed with a MAF also have a MAP sensor, but they use the MAF as the primary sensor, the MAP is used as a backup and for starting. I don't know where the wire goes, but if the car is running good and the check engine lite is OFF, I wouldn't worry about it. However, if the check engine lite is ON, get the car scanned, and the code may give a hint of what is missing. Car companies use common wiring harnesses, and there always are some connectors that are not being used, depending on how the car is optioned.
