Hello and I just wanted to say Hi . I have been reading a lot about the Gorgeous Grancabrio and have decided to buy one . Fingers crossed that I will be picking her up on Monday 12th as the weather is looking ok to do so . Im not going to say anymore as I don't want to temp fate but am looking forward to collecting it so much . Had a good read on here and you all have a lot of good reports about your cars which helps a lot . I have not driven one as yet but cant wait . I did own a Porsche 997 for 4 years and loved that but want to have a change and want something a bit more special and love the Italian cars . I can also take friends out in this one as they have legs and in the so called seats in the back of a 911 you cant have legs . This car is a second car for me so will live in the garage under a cover until I want to have a drive out and Im sure now the weather has changed it wont have the top down much at all .

Welcome.
The GranCabrio may not be quite as overtly sporty as the 911, but is more stylish and spacious for sure. Enjoy.
Where in Dorset are you? (I’m near Shaftesbury)
Oh, and as mentioned above, get to know Myles at Emblem Sportscars in Poole. You are likely to need someone like him on your side at some point.

A big warm welcome to the forum. Bet you can't wait to pick your new Maserati up. It's a beautiful car the Grancab. Look forward to hearing more and seeing some pictures.

Lovely car - welcome zippy.

Does the forum name have any meaning? We started calling one of our mates Bungle after he lost 2 toes in a motorcycle accident :)
