Welcome to Sports Maserati.

You can open the boot (trunk) with your key. The keyhole is located in the centre of the brightwork above the number plate. It may be hard to turn.

if you cannot access the trunk with the button in the glove box or manually through the key hole in the trunk you can remove the lights from the rear and pull the cable with pliers and the trunk will open right up.

In this photo if you notice the strip above my lights is a PPG black color, the rest is a darker blue, here are the screws up close you'll take out, think there's one in the middle as well.....

yes i tried the key but it would not turn! and i did not want to "force", but i have been reading other forums that indicate that it just need a lill bit of grease and working it a lill bit to free it up while pressing down on the trunk, if this does not work thank you very much for the alternative of removing the light! that is definitely a good thing to know

All the best

No problem glad I can help.....

In my experience, the key will work. Use something like WD40 and eventually, the lock will relent.

Put some juice into the car via the cigar lighter socket, no need to start taking the car to bits!
