2009 - Maserati Quattroporte on 2040-cars
Sparks, Nevada, United States
I am not a sales guy and will not pretend that I am. I promise to not use cliche and overused sales terms when describing the car. Here's the honest truth on this Maserati: I ordered this particular Quattroporte to spec direct from Maserati back in 2008. As mentioned above, I will not use terms like "babied" or "tender loving highway miles" because we all know that is generally a lie. If a person has to go out of their way to point something that should be obvious... they are probably full of it. Please let the photos do the explaining as to how well the car was taken care of. I never took it through a Chevron save $3 on an Ultimate car wash if you buy some fuel first and let our minimum wage high school kid take our dusty shop broom and test the thickness of your car's clear coat sorta place. Instead, our company has an agreement with a local mobile car washing business who happily stops by the office once a week to wash cars. That's how it was detailed from day one until just yesterday when they washed it for a final time. All maintenance work was completed at Maserati of Tampa, FL and Maserati here in Las Veags. Quite frankly, driving fast absolutely terrifies me. If I wanted to drive like a maniac I would've invested in a Lingenfelter Twin Turbo Corvette or Viper... I will say this car does have a Stage 2 ECU software upgrade that yields an extra 25 horsepower. My business partner's had a local performance shop install a custom Formula Dynamics tune while I was out of town on vacation. They thought I would notice the difference and call them to ask what they had done to the Maserati! In reality they waited a week until approaching me to see if I noticed a difference. I did not because you actually have to mash the throttle to experience the difference which is something I just do not do. After they mentioned the upgrade to me I tried it out and yes there is a noticeable difference! The car spent half of it's life in Tampa, FL where it's nice and warm (no snow, salt, sandy roads, etc) and the 2nd portion here in even sunnier Las Vegas. The paint still looks great for a 5 year old car with 49k on it. Anyone who invests a little time in learning about Maserati knows the one-of-a-kind craftsmanship that goes into each and every vehicle. Even to this day (5 years after pulling the plastic wrapping off the seats and steering wheel) as I sit in the drivers seat I do not feel like I'm in an automobile. This car is something special. The added roar and growl from the engine is not a necessity rather an added bonus for guys like me Rawrr!!! hehe Please do not hesitate to message me with any questions you may have. The car is available to inspect for yourself if you are in the local area. Good luck!!! *I have clear title in hand *100% Clean CarFax report *Both key fobs are included -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On Feb-27-14 at 18:36:06 PST, seller added the following information: I am not a sales guy and will not pretend that I am.

That said, I will say this car does have a Stage 2 Formula Dynamics ECU software upgrade that yields an extra 25 horsepower. The most noticeable gains are how much quicker the car shifts while in Sport mode and the acceleration from a stop.

2014 Maserati Ghibli prototype spied for the first time
Mon, 17 Dec 2012Looking to better compete with mainstream luxury automakers, Maserati has already announced its plans for expanding its model lineup. Now, these spy shots give us our first look at a new, smaller sedan that resurrects the Maserati Ghibli nameplate. Seen for the first time as a prototype rather than a Quattroporte-based test-mule, this is the closest-to-production view of the upcoming Ghibli thus far.
Aside from its name, we don't know much about the 2014 Ghibli, but we do hear that this Maserati, like the upcoming Maserati Levante SUV, will have a direct lineage to a Chrysler product. While the Levante will be based on the Jeep Grand Cherokee, it sounds like the Ghibli could use the Chrysler 300 as its starting point. This means that the standard version of the car could get Chrysler's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 - rumored to produce around 400 horsepower - paired with the latest eight-speed automatic transmission; sportier trim levels would almost certainly get a V8 from Ferrari rather than using the 300C's Hemi.
As for some of the details apparent in the spy photos, we can obviously see the size difference between these two cars when comparing previous spy shots of the newly released 2014 Quattroporte, which we drove last week. We also see that this car gets some performance-oriented, cross-drilled brake rotors, and based on the depth of the snow in which this car was caught testing, we also wouldn't rule out the use of all-wheel-drive on the Ghibli.
Stirling Moss-crashed 1956 Maserati 450S to be auctioned in Monaco
Sun, 06 Apr 2014RM Auctions has some very special and expensive Italian sportscars of the 50s and 60s consigned for its auction in Monaco on May 10, but the one that currently carries the highest estimated value at between 4 and 5.5 million euros ($5.5 - $7.5 million) is a 1956 Maserati 450S with some very interesting provenance.
The Maserati started its life as a six-cylinder 350S that Stirling Moss drove in the 1956 Mille Miglia race. Unfortunately, the brakes failed, and it crashed into a tree and nearly into a ravine. Moss and his co-driver weren't injured, but the car was kaputt.
Maserati repaired it and used the chassis as a test mule for its new 5.7-liter V8 racecar called the 450S. It featured an extended wheelbase to fit the larger engine and a new body with a single seat. The racer hit the track again at the hands of Moss and Juan Manuel Fangio in the 1957 Buenos Aires 1000 KM but retired with transmission issues. Later that season, it crashed again at the 1957 Mille Miglia at the hands of driver Jean Behra. After that, the car sat around the workshop until it was sold without an engine in 1965.
2014 Maserati Ghibli S Q4 [w/video]
Wed, 12 Mar 2014For one reason or another, this is a car people stare at. They might be drawn to its curvaceous shape riding on immense wheels. They could be intrigued by its gaping, blacked-out grille which houses an equally outsized trident logo, or doing quick calculations about the last time they saw a car wearing the name Maserati. It may be its sports-car-like proportions mixed with achingly long, four-door bodywork that draws their eye.
Or, and I urge you to consider this theory carefully, the people taking notice of this Maserati Ghibli S Q4 might simply be newly alert after hearing the sound of its exhaust ricocheting off any solid thing nearby as I drive past grinning like a certified asshat. Did you hear an Italianate engine song careening through your Ann Arbor, MI neighborhood, in the black of the early morning, just a few weeks previous? Sorry, guy, that was probably me.
I spent a week hammering this all-wheel-drive Ghibli as hard as I dared in the last truly miserable stretch of the God Awful Winter of 2014. I can honestly say that I enjoyed myself, shocked at both the frank way this new challenger luxury car went down the road as well as the attention it garnered in the process.
