although you hear people talking about the price of repairs and other problems this car is better than other upper end cars and handles better than comparable cars. If you are buying a car like this repairs are the same as on Porsche or Mercedes. The feel of driving a car like this is well worth it. The interior is luxurious and quiet unless you drive in sport mode which turns this car loose and goes. The engine is a v6 bi-turbo Ferrari engine AWD and goes in the snow nicely. Have a blast driving!!!

The Thorobred of saloons with a Ferrari engine

You can tell the quality, tradition, elegance and style the moment you step in. The sound of the revving engine is an Italian aria, the body design stands out in comparison to any saloon on the road today. When I visited the factory I was amazed, it was like a surgical theatre with the assembly line technicians in white gloves working in complete silence. The history going back over a hundred years shows in the classic badge representing the Neptune fork of a great statue in the center of Bologna (the three prongs for the three Maserati brothers),the oval analogue clock, 9 international race victories in the 1930’ 40’ and 50’ . This marque is all about class and refined technology without compromise.

Worst seats in history

The front seats are so painfully uncomfortable they could be used to coerce confessions. The upper part of the seats, behind the shoulders, is too narrow and sticks out way too far, so you can't really sit back into the seat without feeling like you have two fists in your shoulder blades. I can basically drive the car for five minutes without being in pain. And there's really no fix to this, especially because the corporate office is totally nonresponsive, and the dealer is just happy to have one less of these things to have to move. I guess I should've leaned back more into the seat during the short test drive. And that's just the front seat. Back seat passengers have difficulty getting in and out, and then complain that the seats are too wedge-like, like their butt is being pinched together. Anyway, I've been trying to sell this car from the moment I leased it. I know I'll take a hit, but it's better than being in pain for the next three years (and maybe I'll just sue the company). Next time I'll just spend a little extra money and get a proper Mercedes or Jaguar or something like that.
