Actually, on reflection, I'm not sure it's a real pink Maserati:

“It was awesome to get one designed and made. They worked closely with us to make it happen and we pulled it together in two weeks."

Two weeks? They must have wrapped it!

My thoughts exactly Drew.

Even Maserati wouldn't spray a car pink to get a sale.

I remember Katie Price wanted a Pink Bentley. Bentley point blank refused. So she bought a white one and spent 16 grand on getting it resprayed pink.
No accounting for taste......

My tour of the factory included seeing a Pink GT on its way to UAE and they said their out of range includes any colour requested including matching lipsticks, ski boots, etc.

Notthing new. Actually Sir Tim Bell, who was Mrs Thatcher's PR man for a while had a pink Quattro Porte years ago.

Yes, yes they would. And have, as the photos prove.

No - I meant there was no chance of getting anything out of Maserati in 2 weeks!

And I'm sure the line about "looking forward to working together again", actually refers to them being very happy to sell a car to anyone who ponies-up £58k. Regardless of what colour it is.

It is wrapped. Registration check confirms it's blue. (it was previously on Linked In without the reg. obscured)

Wouldn't you have to re-register the car to change the colour?

Yes - the wording has changed from 'should' to 'must' notify for colour changes by wrapping. Previously the DVLA considered that wrapping was a temporary change and not notifiable.
