Stunning is the word. I really like the colour - blue and black looks superb, IMO. Nice wheels, too. Carbon trim inside is a nice touch but not sure if the carbin round the exhausts isnt a bit much, that it looks like an aftermarket add on. It's up at my local dealer, may have to drop by and have a look at it in the flesh.

I really like the seats and the steering wheel but the new nose looks wrong to me. Will look ok in black though.

Agreed, the seats look great (and the extra rear legroom would be helpful). Personally I like that blue a lot but I think that with the new snout the Sport will be more colour-senstive than the current / previous model: in white it looks like it's grinning inanely.

TBH, if I had £110k to throw at a car, I would keep the spyder and buy a 360CS. That way, I certainly wouldn't lose 50% in the next 3 years.

I would have to have at least one car with 4 seats and the GT Sport fits the bill...

Me too.

Because in 18 months, that GranTurismo Sport will probably be 'the old style' Maserati.

(Unless, of course, the chaps in Modena plan on squeezing another 2 years out of the QP platform)

I agree. Specifically when the Granturismo ceases production in the 2014 to 2017 window, it will look old once the new QP appears.

See, that never bothers me.....If I like I car I would buy it..new or used....doesn't matter to me if a new ones around the corner or not....If I was worried about resale and value I would not have bought and had fun in half the cars I've owned....

Not sure but I think the GT is with us for a few more years yet......Sure I read it somewhere...

For me I am looking a tad differently at it as I already have a GTS. Also I am still surprised at how strong residuals are (despite what Harry Metcalfe says this month) but wonder how they will do after new QP.

Did see that on EVO BB......Residuels I though were pretty good against others.
