Good evening all,
Bursting with excitement as I have finally taken the step into Maserati ownership. I've been day dreaming for months looking for a QP, I had a slight dilemma when I realised that the Granturismo was in budget too, but decided that was just too obviously mid life crisis for a man of my .... .... middle age!
I've torn and twisted looking at what was available and should I go for the duo select or the later ZF box. There are some gorgeous duo's out there, but genuine advice pushed me towards the later ZF. Then do I want the pre LED face lift or not - the price difference is not to be sniffed at, again there are some gorgeous examples out there, ............................ or do I go 'what the heck' and go for the best my budget will stretch to?
I finally decided on the 'what the heck' route and got this - it took my breath away the moment I saw it, ticked all the right boxes and had the wow! factor.
The sound turns me to jelly, the looks are just beautiful, and it's truly a beautiful car to sit in and just ............. just savour. The GTS Sport I hadn't realised came with the extra holy moly factor - it's awesome.
I've got a stack of questions about some of the 'features' that don't seem to be obvious in the owners manual - I think I may have a couple of electrical issues that need sorting - or there's a hidden menu I haven't found yet.
I'll post them in the QP section below when I'm certain the answer isn't already in there somewhere.
Looking forward to learning a lot more about the car and savouring every second of its looks and driving pleasure.
Cheers
Ian.
