currently make an out and out sports car?

Seems like an obvious gap to me between the Alfa 4c and the 458.
A 911 priced 2 seater would be a fit.
Miles, that why Masers will always be rare,but not necessarily worth.....
There's a guy in the village who last year bought one of those expensive Ferrari 4x4 thingies, but always wants to blag a drive in my old 3200GT saying its far better!
This is the problem we've always had..

Perhaps there in lies the rub Dave? Maserati make cars, beautiful cars in the main. Ferrari make money. The fact that they make cars is incidental. No different to DeBeers or OPEC in that regard and just like DeBeers and OPEC they don't like competition.
Your exactly right there Miles...just look at Alfa Romeo, with very little money coming in,if Fiat pull the plug there history....
Not sure about Maserati in the long term though,but they do need to wash their face!

Talking to the head of sales UK, Maserati want to build desirable front engined, rear drive, 4 seat GT cars, (some coupes and some four door). Here's hoping they see the wisdom of making another 2 seat drop top with a big engine and slack traction control.
Not allowed to.
The Alfa 8c is really the GranSport replacement for what it's worth.
Some people take the view that the first gen California started off as a Maser.
Whatever your opinion, Fiat is stopping Maserati developing what is needed which is a real shame.
Here's hoping they can sneak one in for old-times sake!
