Its been awhile since I've had time to enjoy the car or had no issues (touch wood)
all is well…
I took her out for a 4 hour drive yesterday and WOW I forgot how great the GS is.
The handling and sterling is amazing but the GS is way..way..way more capable than my limited fast driving talent. Speaking to Benny awhile back, he commented that these cars will not kick out on bends (unless you're being silly) and wow he was right - the GS handing is like glue but a few times I did lift off which I think upset the GS handling.
Recommend A506 between Baldock – Cumberlow Green if you're around that area
The sound I think is amazing still, maybe inside the car it seems it's not that loud but outside, a friend heard the GS coming before even seeing it - so can't be that bad.
The seat I already know are very comfortable, I've driven to Italy then south of France and home with no issues and yesterday was no exception – if you've not done a SM euro trip – do it ! (I wish I could)
So windows down and then down shift still gives me a massive smile – my gearbox has only done ¼ of the mileage of the car so is still smooth and still amazing bit of kit – yes they could be faster but think it works very well for the GS – The modern Maserati's I think should be using double clutch gearboxes by now
Acceleration in today's standard maybe dropping off but still the smooth push into the seat as you hit the floor and seeing the distance getting closer very quick is still additive – that engine and the sound it gives is fantastic and the GS is still just above a 4second 0-60
mines clocked 70,000 and think it drives as if its done half that, maybe because the amount of money I've put into her and I think it shows. I just can not think of another car for this sort of money with the styling, the lovely interior, the amazing engine, the sound and the wow factor of a GS….
Bad part about the GS is putting her away after getting home and the fact that the next drive maybe not for a while but its something to look forward too
