Next generation Maserati Coupe

[Twin Turbo]

Latest mules out testing. Notice the longer wheelbase from previous scoop shots. Autocar this week claims it'll be launched at the Geneva show early next year.

Picture just shows round tail lights. I think the 4200 has lost a good style feature.

Unless it's an option. Like the £8k option now!

The lights in the picture appear to be borrowed from the MC12....although I'm sure these won't be used on the production car.

Can you get factory curved lights for £8k then? Or is that a retro fit.

For the new model? Have you any idea of the specs? 470bhp?

[sjp63]

Yes the new model........I got a fairly detailed decription from my dealer who has seen pictures without the covers on. The V8 power is up from the current model. If you search (the net)for new 2007 maserati coupe you should find fairly consistant reports. He told me its either full auto or paddle shift models so I assume no manual (stick shift)version

Any idea of the date of the announcement or delivery? Over on maseratilife, a dealer states that the factory is closed to visits for a few months due to retooling for the new coupe.

[sjp63]

Not really....launched at one of the shows in 07 then right hand drive 6 months later...delivery sometime 08!
