Hey Matt,
We both had the GTV, then the 3200, then the GranSport - would be more than spooky if you also got yourself a GT-R!
I don't particularly like the styling, but I think it would be a great car to have for a year or so, before returning back to something more sophisticated. I've ruled out a GT-S, I just can't get my head around paying twice what I got for my GranSport for something that, performance-wise and technology-wise, really isn't that different.

Yep, it's a hard one to swallow after being in a Maser. I thought long and hard about it. The M5/M6 were on the shortlist, as was the C63 AMG, but the GT-R has blistering pace which gives it the nod.

If Maserati had properly replaced the coupe, and priced it appropriately, then I'd be driving that now. I'm still an Italian car fan at heart.

Nah, not really into BMW's if I was to go for one, it would be an M5.

Pat, so your not going for a GTS then? Tell you what a 3.2 GTV would fit the bill that cant de value much.

That ones not worth the money to be honest Matt .. It's a lovely car that I phoned up about a few months back ... But then it was up for sale for 5k with someone else .... They bought it added a Q2 and warrenty and upped the price but 3k ....... Q2 id about £700 so not a boad profit.

I paid 9K around 8 years ago for a 4 year old GTV with 35K on the clock. Can't seem myself (or anyone else?) paying 8K for something with twice the miles and nearly twice the age? You can get a GTV Cup for less.

I bought my 2004 3.2 GTV new for £21.5k had it for 2 years/24k miles and sold it for £12k, ouch!

Stunning, stunning point to point car.

Sold that in 2006 and went Maserati, and the rest as they say is history.

Completely agree MS ..... Will add that the Cups are not worth what some are trying to ask for them ..... 5/6k at the most for a low mile stunning condition one .... After all they are only a GTV V6 in a body kit....
