MC Sportline specs?

[sjc]

Having done some homework on the 4.7 MC Granturismo's,and through that edging ever closer to finalising exactly what to look for for my perfect car, could someone please tell me exactly what the specs were with regard to the MC Sportline package?
Was it a complete package, or could it be tailor made piece by piece.
Were they all lowered/stiffened 10mm?
Would you expect it to pay more for a Sportline example, if two cars were otherwise the same in provenance?
I love the idea of the carbon, and also much prefer the appearance in being lowered 10mm, but the only examples of MC Sportlines I've seen are black or white, is this correct?
If any of you have driven back to back, is there any difference in ride comfort,(not that this will bother me!)
Any other infor you feel may be relevant, please go ahead!
Many thanks in advance for your help!

SJC, welcome to the forum, others will pass by soon who can pass on wisdom of these new fangled machines....

SJC, the sport line bits could be ordered separate.....I have a full price list of what you could have....I will post a bit later so you can see how much each bit costs.......

SJC - As Andy says, there is a raft of different MC Sportline Parts available:

BodyStyling
Suspension
Exhaust
Interior

So there isnt a complete package as such, so pieces will have to be individually ordered, unless you are going for the suspension upgrade etc which would only work as a kit.

MC Sportline Rear Spoiler is over £1700 Plus Vat from a Maserati. We sell the complete external kit for around that price.

Hi

It's a presumption to assume that MC kit makes a car worth more as it will put a lot of people off. Why not buy the bits you want and add them to a standard car then take them off for resale?

Andy - I suspect these prices are a little out of date - Just the rear spoiler currently retails for over £1700 Plus Vat

Thanks for all the replies so far.
Thoughts on this one with regard to spec, price, the dealer etc?
Not sure about the window tints,and I wasn't going to for a cream interior,(only as I've had several before) but with the abundance of carbon inside it really works to my eyes.
I do rather like it ..........

Bigbob, why would that be,( putting people off) the replacement costs,not everyone's cup of tea etc?

 

[Torenno Performance]

Personal preference etc.

Some people would like the more edgy look that the MC Sportline parts give, some people prefer the the 'Clean' look without the bolt on parts.

Most people don't mod cars so the biggest resale market is for standard cars. I reckon you can get more back by taking mods off and selling them separately.

 

[bigbob]

Is the handling pack just for non-skyhook cars?

Its for both, but on a Skyhook car, the skyhook functionality is written out.

Noor this has come out of the 2012/2013 model year price brochure....It has the new Grantourismo Sport on the cover......Now this may be the price of the MC line when you are speccing a new car.........It could be a different price as aftermarket...

 

[sjc]

Just a thought,would Mc Sportline stuff not be classified as factory options rather than modded?

Looked at that advert yesterday...Looks good apart from the tints........I was never a fan of all black but it does look very mean on the GT S......There is another one like this with black leather/red stitching that looks better value.....and its at a good dealer from what I can gather...

I suspect this is the case Andy - I wouldve been all MC Sportlined up, if they were available at those prices

 

[Andyk]

Noor have you lowered yours on your springs yet......?....

 

[Torenno Performance]

Not yet Andy - Ive got the Springs and Roll bars, just need to find sometime to get them done.

 

[Andyk]

Think I said before it's the one thing the GT is crying out for....Far too much gap between the wheels and arch...Look forward to seeing some before and after once you have done the job...
