I really like the car and whilst no V8, it sounds better than i expected, but £140k for the Modena and £160k for the Trofeo is serious money.

Keith I agree. Given that budget I think all but a few would push a bit more a get an MC20

Unless you want 4 seats of course. Price do seem a bit wild Matt agree against the MC20. 130 for base and 150 for the top spec may have been better. I suppose you would still need another 40k though with options to get a new MC20. I will never afford a new GT so I will just revel in the fact it is another beautiful Maserati and very capable one. Maserati are in a roll at the moment since the MC20 and that is a very, very good thing.

Yeah have to agree with you there Andy , out of my price pocket , and realistically apart from winning the lottery my chances of owning one will be slim to nothing , i dont think i have enough years left to be sitting and waiting for them to depreciate to fit my pocket size, unless that is I manage to come across one in copart a careless owner has discarded

Wonder what the QP will look like? They've done it the other way round this time, as the GT was built of the QP platform. Given that the new GT is longer and wider than the "old" one, I hope they don't push the dimensions any more for the new QP (VII?). The beauty of the QPV is that the size just works, whereas the QPVI is just a bit too long for the proportions.
Not that I'd be in the market.....:)

stunning car, I've seen few mules on the road during the last year because I live quite close to the factory. Initially they started the development with a Giulia-like body and was fun to see that strange veichle driving around.

This new Granturismo is priced very high for me, but I'm not able to say if it's too much....if they've decided this price positioning I assume they know what they're doing.

What it disappoints me is that it won't be built here at the factory in Modena but at the big plant in Turin, and this is 'less exclusive' from my point of view (now the production in Modena is dedicated to the MC20). Probably they plan to make higher numbers compared to the old model.

Anyhow I think it will be a fantastic car from all points, design, engine, quality, road dynamics, internal space etc...not easy to find a competitor with the same 'appeal' level.

The QP6 grew in size to make space for the Ghibli. Now that saloons arent as popular as SUVs they’re going to make it smaller again along the lines of the Audi A7 and Merc CLS.
