The car does look great in person, but the sound of that engine...velvet to the ears.  Congrats Vino!

this is true.  there are several quattroportes near my work.  they sound like they're redlining when they're just coming off idle and cruising down the street to a stop.  they sound magnificent!!

jasaretta, that's a nice car, but I gotta agree with Ash...Aston Martin makes the most beautiful cars in the world, IMO.

Right, but I think there's a price point here. That Maser can be had for quite a bit less than the Aston...

I heard they worked out some transmissions issues they were having.  I'd like to hear how it drives. 

Congrats!  chug

The transmission problems were in the 4 door (Quattroporte). The GT has a new transmission from ZF - it's great. Spent the weekend in a demo car. Great car. makes you feel special LOL.

No track for this one.- to and from the office and the weekend car.

Absolutely - I drove one last week. Great sound and very gorgeous. Shares too many parts with the ford mondeo for my liking.....and wasn't crazy about the handling. However a great car. Sound is unbelievable.

But I'm italian...and after the "must-have" boxes are ticked...i tend to buy what gets my blood going. That's how I bought the S4Rs too Smiley

Anyway - cant wait to get it and fat-arm my way around this city LOL
