Looks great on a Gransport but the Grancab is elegant and that doesn't work for me....

Nor for me. Not really sure about the Grancab; great to drive and look at but ultimately, IMO, pointless. Enough room for 4 adults but absolutely no room for their bags which, for a GT car, defeats the purpose. For the same outlay I would prefer to have a GTS and a spyder.

would need to be cheap. And then wrapped.

Like Andy, I think yellow works on the GS, but not on an elegant GC.

It's the cheapest Grancab on Autotrader, but 3k extra will get a more elegant white one with black soft-top and black wheels. Great combo on the GC (in my opinion).

So its not cheap enough, IMO. Mind, some would argue that the yellow is a posibitve....so requires a premium!

Wow, after 2 years' ownership and 12000 miles, this car will probably sell for around half price!

Shows how much cash some of the new breed of Maserati buyers have. How many of us on here would not miss 50K?

The ad stated a new price of 107k. You're right, that's a pile of depreciation in 2 years plus the cost of the first service and 4 new tyres. There are a lot of people who buy Ferraris and Masers brand new and keep them for just a year before replacing with a new one. Lots of repeat annual customers to keep the main dealers busy!

I used to reguarly see a yellow one on the MI Luton area, that had burgundy leather , looked ghastly close up , but what a car if the colour combination was right , one of those would see me out in the maserati stakes , so long has i had another to dabbnle and play with , dont think i could ever just have the one car

Cabs are worth no more than coupes used and cost more new. Also you can get a discount if you ask and the yellow will be hitting the price £5k. So the depreciation on a coupe in a dark colour owned for two years would be far less.

Loads of Gran Cabrio's for sale too, wonder why?

Tiny boot will come in to it, I reckon.

I wonder if the UK had committed to taking a certain number.....then had rain from May til today, so sales are down! I reckon you'll be able to get one for a bargain some late 'summer'.
