For the money this is a baller performance car

400hp
Nice to look at.
Practical (compared to true exotics)
Its not just another Porsche, etc.
Unique.
I-talian car sex appeal.

Yeah, I know, his son beats on the cars blah blah blah.

I am not saying it is the best car on the planet but, baller for dollar it is up there. Thank God for poor resale value.

aside from the fact that I dislike paddle shift cars, it is awesome. $47k is not too bad.

There nice, Ive heard the Gransport has the updated paddle shift gear box as well, apparently the one in the first gen V8 coupe sucked.

never really got into Maserati’s at all (other than the MC12, which in my eyes isn’t even a real Maserati, just an Enzo in drag)…in person i think they look way better than in pictures, but still not that great IMO

look up the maintenance on them… not that fun, especially if you have the F1 trans that requires a clutch replacement…

^ I am just saying they are baller, not a good maintenance machine.

I liked them… until the new Gran Turismo came out, now I think they look like a shitty mid 90’s Italian car.

CTS-V

cts-v >all

A CTS-V is not going to turn heads like a Maserati. Just sayin’.

Are you kidding me?

CTS-V.

you fail

CTS-v > EVERYTHING

I put the floor in the house across the street from there and used to stare at that car non-stop. Awesome looking car

FWIW, I work on an '06 Gran Sport Coupe and have an '07 Quattroporte in the garage right now. They’re surprisingly nice cars. The shift programming is worlds ahead of where it was 4-5 years ago.

Maintenance nightmares? None. Nothing other than routine maintenance on both.

meh give me an Aston over one of these any day of the week
