Maserati 3200Gt or similar...
Discussion
Seems that I'll have some money coming my way shortly so the new car search begins in earnest.
(the AMG is officially dead
)
Very very tempted by 3200Gt's. Already spoken to Alex on here who drives one (and seems to love it!), thanks Alex, your info is much appreciated.
However, when you do these things you have to test a few cars to get an idea of what is out there.
Car has to be only car, be comfortable living outside, and capable of racking up 16k+ a year for the next 18-24 months.
Current shortlist :
3200Gt
996C2 / 993 c2/4S
CLK55amg
XKR
Any of you guys driven any / all of the above?
Any thoughts on long term Maserati depreciation?
lastly - is there a tubi option for the 3200, if there is I might just forget my senses and go for it...

personally i would give the Masser a miss for 16k a year motoring
That is my gut reaction too, but it is such an achingly nice looking motor.
Going to drive a 3200 with Maranellos at the weekend - will post my thoughts if anyone is interested. If anyone has any thoughts on that particular dealership / who to speak to / etc - please mail me off list.
cheers!
Cheers for the thoughs chaps.
Latest thinking is :
3200 - my favourite, but concerned about running costs, and the fact that it'll be hard to sell if I stik 30k on it.
996 - sensible, great to drive (have tested one) not sure about image though.
clk-55 - stealthy (in present company), massive grunt, not so sporty but very applicable to the motorway miles.
XKR - no idea about these at all, not that bothered really. Maybe with the arden mods it might be worth a look, but then we're getting up there price wise...
BOxster S - ok don't need 4 seats (but they're always useful) so boxster a possibility, will handle the miles, and have roof off fun opportunities. Drawback is would want rear glass screen so looking at newish
