You don't see Granturismos in this neck of the woods very often and the car often attracts comments and questions of all kinds. The odd time there are questions here from prospective owners, wondering what kinds of reactions to expect. So, I thought a thread of questions we've been asked or comments made might be helpful / humorous etc etc
When out and about in your Maserati recently, what have you been asked or what comments have been said, that are note worthy or typical?
Parked outside my house today, I was sitting with the engine still on, checking something or other. A group of kids that looked about ten years old came over and incredibly politely (which surprised me) asked if I'd rev the engine. I recently had the centre silencer taken out so now the car is louder with a more raspy tone. Sure enough, when I red lined it a few times, the kids had grins like Cheshire cats.
Not really note worthy, but typical. Along with shouts of 'nice car' or thumbs up, from kids as I drive past.
I must admit. The uniformly positive reactions from people of all ages, has been a very unexpected bonus.
