Look out for understeer in the wet on smooth roads apparently - apart from that I hear they're good. Be sure to post some pics when you get a chance!!

I had a good look round one, looked great, but I was a bit concerned the boot lip was a bit high for loading bags of cement. rolleyes

Like you thinking. It was the first maserati that we thought wow.

Ours was delivered in December but only had first drive at the weekend. Maybe not as fast as you would like but we wanted it as a GT for going out with the kids rather than a thrash around B roads car which we have already. Boot space a bit limited but loads of space in the back fo adults/kids.

Got trip to Scotland planned in couple of weeks to give it a proper run. FYG we bought it in preference to the 612 and bentley gt which i thin is its main competition not the v8/911 which the mags test it against.

couple of photos

I sold mine last week, just before gettin delivery of it, for a small premium. They're not making very many - probably only 200 for UK this year - and they are very pretty/desirable so I think the residuals will be quite good, and certainly better than the QP.
