Hello from a new (and old member)! Having joined back in 2000 with a Grigio Nuvolari 4200 I'm now back behind the wheel of a car I've had an itch for for years. I've been behind the wheel of many and various BMW and Nissan Z cars (I like to mix it up!) since I was last on here and latterly and utterly sublime M6 GranCoupe. Just fancied a change and as the M6 was soooooo good at everything it did it was a tough act to follow hence something a little bit more exotic and different to avoid direct comparisons. Hence collecting a 65 plate, 1 owner, GranTurismo Sport last weekend from a Parks near Glasgow with 14k on the clock. I really wasn't looking for a black car (especially with black wheels) but after a £5k price drop I backed out of negotiations on another car in favour of this - negotiating 2 years extended Maserati warranty being the cherry on top. As I say, black on black, on more black, really wasn't my first choice however appreciate it is a menacing looker. What isn't easy to pick out is the carbon exterior pack (mirrors, spoiler, front splitter & door handles). These alloys were my first choice but is a bit of a shame they get a bit lost in the arches with all the darkness - might address this at some point but likely won't ever get round to it! Only thing missing of any note is BOSE - an odd option not to tick at this price-point but hey ho - I'm sure I'll live. Whilst the tech is absolutely gash (especially coming from Germany's finest) but thankfully that wasn't the draw of this car
