    Bye bye 4200.................................hello GS Spyder!

    DaveT, Good move to the GS Spyder...I bought mine last year...2006 GS Spyder here in Florida. Found out from Maserati USA that I have one of 274 imported to the US...a rare car indeed in the land of Detorit steel. Good luck with it...PS I just had the F1 pump replaced at 15,000 miles...

    Filled my GTS up yesterday

    Just for fun...what does 85.95 liters of super cost in the UK? Super here is creeping above $4.00 a gallon...now that we are chasing down the camel jockeys...again. Plus I see that UK is in a pinch for sweet curde. So...what did that set up back...in pounds...dollars? Stoner Naples, FL

    Maserati owners list.....please add your Maserati!

    My '06 GranSport Spyder is on the stat list. I ask Maserati USA about the car...turns out that Maserati sent 242 GranSport Spyders to the Unite States in '06. I have tired to find out how many '06's were manufactured but no answer yet from Maserati...got any idea? Cheers!
