The Biturbo Club Italia is organising a celebration of the 30th anniversary of the birth of the Maserati Biturbo, to be held over two days in Modena. There will be notable speakers and activities, including track time at the new circuit of Modena (http://www.autodromodimodena.it/).
The event...
Hi chaps,
a few snaps capturing the key parts of the event held at the Balocco race track by the Maserati Club (the Italy-based one, officially endorsed by the house of the trident).
Enjoy!

Hi there,
Last Sunday, the Biturbo Club Italia (http://www.biturboclubitalia.it/) met for its 45th meet in Soncino, a small town in Lumbardy home to a medieval castle.
A few snaps of the, unfortunately rainy, event:
Chaps, I know you like your cars RHD but if you ever fancy LHD Maseratis, Italy is the place to buy them from now. The new emergency laws to save the state from default have pushed up massively car tax (eg. About EUR 3k a year for a GranSport, EUR 2.5k for a 3200GT).
Some people I know in...
On the 22nd, the Maserati Club members of Japan held their 18th Annual Event (their big yearly meet). Unfortunately the weather did not help them at all, but they made a big effort to bring some serious motors to the event.
A few pictures below:
The Participants...
Would you believe it? Last weekend (and actually the one before too), I took the family to Valle d'Aosta, a wonderfully mountaineous Italian region between France and Switzerland and I came across Lake Loz...
Any of you guys into GT5? Given my Maseratiless situation, the GranTurismo S available in the game is my only Trident-related driving opportunity.
Anyway, in case you fancy having an online race or two, my username is BeeEffe.
A couple of days ago, the chaps on repartocorse2.com arranged a meet near Udine, at the main base of the Frecce Tricolori, the aerobatic demonstration team of the Italian airforce.(equivalent to the British Red Arrows)
Despite being a mid week meet in the middle of nowhere, 55 people and 23...
First time ever I reckon.
Really wish I had spent a bit more time in Blighty last time around and got a chance to meet you lot better.
Also, probably the only group of people on Earth that were cool with me showing up with a Prius on a drive together.
Cheers,
Maurizio
Hey chaps,
A while ago I promised I'd post some photos of Italian Maserati meets so here is me fulfilling my trident-related obligations ;)
Last weekend the Biturbo Club Italia supported by RepartoCorse2, the Italian Maserati forum, arranged a two day event at the beach side resort of...
Looking at a Shamal, looks mint, but import job so not sure what to look out for. Would greatly appreciate any tips or suggestions.

Car has 60k km, it's actually a 1991 (though first registered in 1994) and therefore should be able to claim historic car...
I hope I am not double posting. This is a wonderful article by F1 champ Phil Hill on his first GP drive in a Maserati 250F:

Hi there,
friend of mine here in Milan (who sold his base GT for the MC Sport Line) is selling his tubi style back boxes for EUR 1,500.
Any interest, send me a message. Thanks!
Now, this is, as far as I know, a WORLD EXCLUSIVE (that is, I haven't posted it anywhere else among the English-speaking Maserati fora)...
On October 7th, I will be at the Mugello track to check out the new GranTurismo MC Stradale (sorry to rub it in guys...).

Friend of mine here in Tokyo (where I am on a short visit) bought a few months ago a California and gave me a ride around town yesterday.
Very, very smooth car with plenty of poke but incredibly civilised and well behaved when driven lightly.
The styling has grown on me and it's full of...
