Maserati teamed with with Italian design company Pininfarina to style the new Gran Turismo. I know its not going to be a hardcore track car, but I think it is gorgeous!!! The tail lights are a little too reminiscent of the new Impreza tail lights though... Quick Specs: 4.2 liter V8 405 hp 339 lb-ft 4136 lbs 0-60 in 5.1s weight distribution of 49/51
I've never really been a fan of those fender vents though... especially since Buick put them on the Lucerne... Still a hot car though!
Watch a top gear episode on the maserati. It handles like its retarded. Lotus makes better cars than most Italian cars. Besides, look at the Lambo, our Subaru's have a faster 0-60's. The only Italian car that is worth the price tag is the Ferrari, that is all.
Yes but these Italian cars aren't designed to pure track cars, they're designed to be pieces of art with glorious sounding engines. I'm pretty sure I'ld be choosing a Lambo or Maserati over any Subaru or Lotus, no matter how fast the 0-60 may be. If I was get a car from the mother land it would be a TVR.
^only 350 units are comming to the US and priced at $135,000. 14.5" front rotors, carbon fiber bucket seats, 500hp, with looks resembling a bit of CLK GTR, ya I'd say this is perfect
Yeah me too. I never thought I would want an automatic no matter how powerful. Oh well, at least it is a 7 speed.
The impression I got was someone compared it to a DB9 and he's saying he likes them, hence it's not a bad car to be associated with. At least that's what I thought. :coolugh:
Jag's remind me of something I saw at a car show once: There was this classic brit car, don't remember what (I was very young), but it had a small plaque stuck on the dash that read: "All of the parts that fall off of this car are of the finest British craftsmanship!" British cars FTL
well back when brittish folks made it it was good. it when ford took over the shit went down hill faster than light getting sucked into the blackhole. FORD FTL~!
y cant you just agree and be a happy member. huh? always on the other side... lol j/k alot of my customers have the jags. and all of them say the same thing... "i'll never buy it again."
:rofl: silly evo owners. nah, I'm just saying that the Ford take-over def. hurt their quality, but that it wasn't that high to begin with.
this is so much better, Displacement:5935 cc Horsepower:510 bhp @ 6500 rpm Torque:420 lb-ft @ 5750 rpm Transmission:6-Speed Manual I guess can we can tolerate a EVO owner once in a while, hahaha, take it easy
