Hello,

I'm considering buying a Quattroporte, and had a few questions:

- Is there a list of the differences between the different yeared versions of the Quattroporte
- Anyone know what are the differences between the Sport GT and the regular Quattroporte (not the Sport GT S as I know that has a bigger engine)
- Is it possible to hook up USB to play music/movies off of it?
- Anyone know where I can download the manual for these cars so I can find out this (and other) information. (May be picking one up but its manual will not be in English, so an English version would be handy).

Thank you all.

This basically stayed the same until the full Auto came along ...Think it was 2007 or was it 2008....Away to begin with you had the same 3 three models for auto and duo select....Then in 2008 the GT S joined the range......

Hi Tux, welcome to the forum and the best of luck with your search for a QP. Hope it stacks up for you as you'll become the custodian of THE best looking 4 door there is.

Good choice mate. There is a feeling that post 07 cars are likely to be more reliable than earlier cars so if your budget can stretch to one, they are the ones to go for. However, whichever one you go for, get an Independent inspection and a full service history. Good luck!
