Why do I have a big grin on my face?

[Gogs253]

Brought the 3200 back from PK to her new home today. Still 5 3200s there.
I can't praise Phil and Kirsty enough. It was a pleasure to deal with them and I recommend PK very highly.
It was the first time I had done any miles in her and I got out grinning from ear to ear. She felt really planted on the road without a single rattle. The performance is thrilling and the noise is breathtaking. It will take a while to get used to her and the 'sport' button hasn't been used yet. A little bit of right foot and the noise begins to build.
It has been well worth waiting for - I think I might be in love. Oh! and did I mention the noise.

Enjoy, they really are special. Be careful when you do use the "sport" button. Hopefully meet up at some point.

Hehehe......actually a little jealous since the first time is just so surprisingly superb. Sport never off on Marci since it does tighten everything up just a little better than no sport but Allan right, respect it or it will bite you ******* corners
Enjoy and hope to catch up soon.

Thank you guys. I just can't get the smile off my face. I'm showing her the utmost respect and will do so until I feel she has accepted me. Yes, a very special experience today. Oh! I forgot to mention the noise lol.

All the Maserati sounds are special for sure especially when you unleash all of the ponys.

The rush of the turbos still gets me grinning every time. Can't beat it.

Only those lucky enough to have owned or own a 3200 understand Trev

Lucky? Masochistic or idiotic more likely...

So true, but we're all a bunch of grinning fools

Over 360lb/ft torque which is as much as a 4.7GTS and more than the 42/GS cars. Putting power down in the wet with SPORT on is fun!

It's a great feeling to get the car back, glad to hear you're enjoying it.

Makes me feel like I'm somehow in the wrong place... it's quite cool you guys enjoy your cars that much! I'm using mine currently mostly for commuting through a 20 minute stretch of suburbia down here in a corner of Hampshire where there are enough potholes to make the roads feel like a miniature version of the Grand Canyon, and it's full of school mums and senior citizens in their Honda Jazz' and Toyota Yaris'.. last night I had to endure half of the trip behind a driving school topping 18 mph.
This morning I felt a bit adventurous and switched off the ASR, pushed the 'power' button and put the auto into 2nd, despite the wet road and the light drizzle. Result? Nothing. Niente. Nada. Zero. Didn't even get to the point where the turbos kick in and the 3200 starts sounding like a really angry vacuum cleaner. I arrived safely and unexcited in the office.
I hope your guys have a much better day! Happy Friday!

Have the happy grin from overtaking a whole bunch of people sat behind a lorry doing 40 in a 60. I really must remember that the S accelerates quicker than the Alfa used to
