Mazer had watched too much Star Wars

Any ideas that the Maserati GranTurismo is a bit soft are about to shattered by this – the MC Corse Concept. The competition model looks like the GT’s evil twin and has been treated to a number of aerodynamic tweaks.

There is a new front bumper and splitter and lower side skirts, along with upgraded suspension and a wider track. The 18x12-inch front and 18x13-inch rear wheels fitted with racing slicks and there are enlarged brake discs with monobloc racing calipers hiding behind.

The car comes complete with a FIA-approved rollcage and has a number of modifications to bring power up to 450bhp. These include a new intake system, competition-spec catalytic converters and a centre-exit exhaust.
