Well not me but the Maserati....reluctantly sold my 54 plate coupe 3 months ago as one car had to go. Regretted it ever since. Picked up a 4k mile black Coupe on Saturday and its great to be back.
Dumped the CSL.
The Coupe has such effortless power and smoothness - fantastic.

Hi, I'm intrigued by your comment that the garage gave your car GS suspension settings - what does that entail, I image it included new springs? I am in the midst of lowering my 4200 so would be interested in any improvements I can make at the same time. Thanks!

Well on my last car I said pity you cant make it handle like a GS to the service manager. He said well actually they share the same suspension system and we can set ride height, camber, caster etc etc same as GS.
So they did....£500 ish and bingo much better ride.
They didnt touch ARB's or springs and I dont know if these items are different on the GS or not.
In summary its well worth doing but its still not a GS!

Thanks for the advice, I'll have a chat with my dealer (Graypaul)to see if they can do the same. I would certainly like to take the opportunity to tighten up the handling a little...
