In fairness, how much of the lack of Maserati content can be put down to a lack of ‘core’ Maserati cars being released?
At the moment we have the Ghibli, QP6 and Levante winding down their production cycles. The MC20 is beyond 95 per cent of the forum, whereas the Grecale… well I’ll be kind, it’s not the kind of car that most of us fell in love with the brand for, is it.
Perhaps the new GranTurismo will reinvigorate more Maserati-specific chat.
This.
I think many of the older, core members have owned their maserati models and either moved on to other brands (as Maserati has struggled to build anything to move to) and so the chat is less about the cars and their technical foibles, and more about non-related stuff.
As a long term member, owner of 5 maserati to date, I've stopped learning much now and therefore don't post so much. I found the forum when I was first looking to buy a Maserati and along with knowledge, I found a core member group that contained a bunch of good folk with the same intersts as me. I have made some good friends on the journey and value that.
However, as I have evolved away from the brand, so have many others. And so the reasons to visit the site become less about the cars.
In short, I blame maserati, FCA and Stellantis.
To provide some constructive citicism, there have been times when i have seen threads and posts that are narrow minded and confrontational. It doesn't bother me that much, I simply avoid the discussion, however I can see why it bothers some.
With the help of Maserati, I hope we can keep most of the discussion on point.
