Might be wrong but aren't those power outputs the standard ones on the GT and GTS?

I think cho might be right as a bog standard Maserati GranTurismo S from 2008 had a 440 hp V8 4.7 engine ! Mind you I do like the understated neoclassical look of this car. Mansory seems to have pulled off that elusive cross between noble simplicity and calm grandeur on the one hand with the quintessentially ancient Roman Chariot as owned by Caligula look, on the other wobble Sort of steed you might see Chris De Burgh poodling along in, whilst singing ¨I've never seen you shine so bright¨curse

Nowhere near as bad as normal for them but they have still managed to spoil the looks of a lovely bit of kit.

Would it not be a lot cheaper and a lot less hassle to just buy a stock Maserati Gran Turismo and attach a 6' x 4' flag to the roof, saying "I'm A Cock"?

Two important questions.

1 Does it have neons?

2 Does the horn play 'la coo ca racha'?

I've never been much of a Maserati fan but this one really catches my eye. It looks a lot more like a racer than some of their other stuff.

I am going to start a charity, the SPATC.. the Society for Prevention of Automotive Taste Crime.

All we need is for all PH'ers to put in £5 each and when we have enough we buy these monstrosities and return them to how Jebus intended them to be.

Who's in?

I'm in, though for my £5 I propose a name change to Society for Prevention of Automotive Cruelty and Abuse - S.P.A.C.A

just looked at the photos again... i hate the front grille as well.... and the interior looks like a pimps bedroom...but for some reason i really really like this car... although the standard car in black with antracite wheels would look amazing... and more tasteful to be blunt

I have no problem with companies improving on a car. Did this car need to be messed with, no.

This is an example of how to take a beautiful looking car and Trevor it up (sorry Trevor's). PLEASE STOP.
