New Maserati Owner

[Pureblonde]

Hi All.
Thought I’d join as I’ve just purchased my first Maserati.
Love low carb drinks and high performance cars. I collect it next week- pics to follow.
New year, new exciting gear!

Great to hear, what's your history of cars, anything Italian?

Welcome...

my first car was a Toyota starlet I since owned an Alfa but Maserati always rocked my world. Luckily I am in a position to buy one and did today!

Not sure ultra low carb cider would be Blondie's tipple of choice!

Welcome PB!

Welcome to the madhouse - everyone should have a Maserati in their life……. So many congratulations on you purchase.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I just paid for my car today….pick up next week
Btw, I noticed a little weird (Italian) feature….. I couldn’t fit a standard 600mlwater bottle in the rear cup holders for my daughter- didn’t try the front.
Do normal sized 330ml cans/ bottles fit?
If not what does?

Standard bottle of wine always used to fit in my rear holders.....

Welcome to the club.

If it's anything like the Granturismo, normal drinks bottles / kids bottles do fit, but the spring mechanism is fairly tight, so you have to give them a good wiggle and shove to get them in.

Collected her yesterday…. What a machine

4 weeks in to my 2022 Ghibli Modena. 500 miles and starting to really enjoy it, love the sound and handling in sports suspension mode.

Reviews are quite negative compared to the usual German stuff, but it has way more character and is much more distinctive. And people are always interested in it, never happened in a Mercedes

Gets under your skin in the best way
