Nah. Maserati four-doors always get marked down because they aren't German. The ride is different, the steering is different, its just different. In a market dominated by the German cars with their Halfords stick on screens and multitude of menus to do things that you don't want, unless you have them then you are marked down. I'm glad Maserati haven't gone down the me too route and are sticking to what they think is the right thing to do.
I don't understand the 2/5 for ride and handling though. They say it handles well but give it 2 because its a little firm. The reason it handles well might be because its a little firm.
I quite like the grill. I bet its very imposing in the rear view mirror
