Have you sold the car to Nuvola?Or is it there to be sold on your behalf? I might have a friend who's interested in a gts

The MC handling package makes a big difference to these cars - I know

Interesting how your car has a GTS badge on the back. Is that something you added? Never seen that before.

You added all the alcantara? To the interior as well didn't you?

GTS badge is from the current Quattroporte GTS, a rare beast indeed.

Buy it Dave!!!!!!!!!

Possibly bit more than I want to stretch, and I still have a hankering for a GS!!!!

I regret that i cant afford to buy that. Hopefully one day i will be in a position to buy something similar.

Thanks guys. If this whole episode has taught me one thing - it's that often first gut instincts are right. And I am still yet to be convinced anything pound for pound is anywhere near the GTs.
I am certianly regretting not having it in this weather!
It's been invaluable being on the forum to get opinions and thoughts from a wide range of experienced car nuts. And
Maserati owners certainly stand apart.
Surely a group of like minded guys need to get together and organise a super car club to rotate ownership for those who want a change every so often. Could be a business idea for Dan!

I've often thought that the supercar syndicate was the way to go. There are surprisingly few, whereas with boats and planes it's a common arrangement. Suspect it is because many supercars are bought to be not driven.

I think you're protesting too much. You need to work on your man maths and buy it.

 

[BennyD]

You d!pshit, get a bigger piggy bank!

 

[Felonious Crud]

Agreed, it's the man maths which is defective, not the piggy bank.

Well I've differentiated and integrated and the man maths still says I can only have 1 car !!!

Benny - trying for a bigger piggy bank, its depleted by my son in uni, who told me he was going to jack and join the RAF, His bust nose and 2 black eyes has convinced him not until he has his degree. I ain't pumping 15k down the road so he can leave after 2 years.......cheeky little t,w,a,t!!! He is staying for 3rd year now!!! Then he can join crab air!!!

I would pat him on the back and credit him for aiming higher than the pongos. Mind you that's not difficult, even amoebas have higher aspirations!

It's been sold on my behalf. Thought it would be more attractive with 1 year platinum warranty ,following full inspection etc.
Nothing to spend for 9,500 miles or another year.

The GTs badge is wipe off. No attachment to the paint at all.
Original carpets had holes in - even nareman said these were much better than maserati standard. I understand if you don't like the drivers side kick plate- a replacement could be organised for sure.
I replaced all badges and buttons etc so it's literally 'as new'

Lets not go there, I dont want to enter a battle of wit with an unarmed man!!!!

Much more useful on a drift car I'd agree. Never had an issue with a road car when I've had issues finding the straight ahead position or thinking....you know I could do with a stripe on my steering wheel.

It's cosmetic- I like it.
I am not Lewis Hamilton so it's not crucial. Nor is the 4.7 litre V8, which I also like. If you only had what you needed we would all be in a fiat panda, and you would own one supercar and not 7.
