Used 2015 Maserati Ghibli Sedan Consumer Reviews
Stop vile excuses !
Before I bought my 2015 S Q4 I was very concerned reading reviews with some level of criticisms for this car. At the same time I was also very intrigued by other very positive reviews and comments. It looks like objectivity is not a parameter commonly used to review the Ghibli ! So.... I tested (test drive) against other upscale cars I was interested in and decide to buy the Ghibli based on my own taste and driving experience. As of today I am sooooo glad.... Yes, objectively, there are aspects that needs improvement (gear paddle, belt locking mechanism easier to reach, quality of audio system) but compared to the car style (class on its own), the performances and (sublime) handling these are just minor issues (or vile excuses for a few detractors). I have only 1200 miles on the car and cannot completely assess the reliability, but as far as brake, handling and overall performance (these not subjective...) I really cannot (logically) explain negative comments in those areas, go figure !

Perfect balance between a smooth and sporty ride
If your priority is a very smooth ride there might be other good choices, however, if you (like me...) actually also enjoy driving, this is a GREAT choice. I agree with some criticism about the interior, a few marginal features could have be done better, but overall I tested many other cars in this class and no one came close to offer the same emotions and pleasure. Update: after 36 months still very happy and deeply in love with this car !! Best vehicle I ever (& proudly) owned.

No real negatives!!
Rear seat room, factory stereo and navigation screen are the "cons". It's really not meant for rear passenger's anyway...if you can get past those things, this a a premium sports/luxury vehicle that will turn heads at every turn!! Engine sound is superb!

Very nice luxury sports sedan
I have owned this car for about 6 months and have driven it just under 6,000 miles. I have driven a Porsche Panamera for about 120 miles. Both cars are excellent and a blast to drive. The Maserati Ghibli is not quite as responsive as the Porsche Panamera, but it has a softer ride and nicer interior. The navigation is the best I have ever used, very user friendly; you don't have to read the intruction to use, it is that intuitive!!!!! I do not understand the complaints by reviewers about the shared Chrysler knobs and similar navigation system. None of the other manufacturers (Mercedes Benz, BMW, Audi, or Porsche) use significantly better knobs and most have less intuitive navigation systems that require one to at least read part of the instructions. If your only compliant are the knobs and the easy-to-use navigation unit, then I would say, it is a great sports sedan. I chose the Maserati Ghibli over the Porsche Panamera mainly because of the price for two very comparable cars; these 2 luxury sports sedans stand out from the others in style and driving performance on windy roads. Don't believe the reviews, drive it for yourself and experience the Ghibli or the Quatroporte. If you like to drive spirited, then you will love the Maderati Ghibli, the Quatroporte Q4 and the Porsche Panamera 4/4S. The others luxury sports sedans just aren't the same, even though they are nice, just not as exciting.

Be Still My Heart....
I fell in love w/beautiful cars when I was about 7yrs old---I saw a Jaguar (now knowing it was a 1960's GType). My love of unique & beautifully crafted & designed cars has remained --The 2015 MASERATI GHIBILI SQ4 AWD is a dream to drive and look at Handling, road contact, braking, steering, and "Get-up-n-GOOooo" are Extraordinary, superlative, and just damn fun My only complaint so far: People ALWAYS wanting to race! But, I don't need to prove anything (else)...unless I am in the mood & compelled to school him/her 💕
