I've just bought a Ghibli! As I'm extremely impatient I've asked the dealer to have the car ready for collection on Saturday. I now have the excitement and anticipation that I've had with all previous Maseratis and no other car I've owned.

Big thanks to Athol (Outrun), who gave me some much heeded information and advice following his Ghibli purchase. It was very helpful indeed!

Photos when I get her and watch out later for the sale thread for my lovely Alfa 159 ti.

Pleased to hear the dealer came through. When are you getting the exhaust done so that we know when you've arrived?

Good for you.
Do they do Yellow!!

Probably, but not mine. It has a bright red interior, though!

Congratulations, very exciting - tell us more; model, spec ... and photos of course

Diesel, a few months old, 4k miles. Grigio metallo, extended poltrona frau red (!) leather, 20" wheels, electric, heated memory seats, adaptive bi-xenon headlights, B&W sound system, carbon fibre interior trim, electric rear dogging blind, probably some other stuff I've forgotten! Price new was an eye-watering £64k!

Well done Mate :D Best Lexus Copy ever!

Thanks! Or is it a Mazda 6. Or Infiniti Q50?!

This will be my stealth-mobile! No exhaust mods planned.

Welcome to the Dark Side of the Force. They will all turn to the dark side in time.

Just cleaned mine after the Goodwood adventure. It looks great all clean and shiny.

Best get one of those dashcams for the station car park. I like carbon fibre.

Congrats Mark. Have to say these cars have grown on me since seeing them in the flesh, really like them now. Also a big fan of red leather interior, that will be a nice place to be.

You're right, that's a very red interior - it works well with the paint colour, very nice

Well done Mark, first glance I thought it was a Beamer from outside, but a Maser is much better, enjoy mate..!!
