Used 2008 Maserati Quattroporte Consumer Reviews
Maserati... Not Ready for Prime Time!
I bought my car in May and it's been in the shop for a total of 3 out of the 4 months I've had it. Computer problems, leak in interior (that Maserati can't reproduce but is reproduced every time it rains), bad CD player. The quality of the car is poor and Maserati does not have the maintenance supply set-up to handle mass produced cars. (They're used to Ferrari owners whose cars aren't needed on a daily basis.) For example, it took 2 weeks just to get the window leak fixed. While the engine and the handling of the car are excellent, Maserati is 5 years behind in terms of electronics and gadgetry that is common on most other mid and high end vehicles. I do not recommend this car!
Best on the street...
I've been searching for a sports car for the last two months. DI've driven everything from the new Bentley Continental GT, Porsche 911 4S, Mercedes S550, BMW M6, etc... Nothing compared to the styling, performance and price of the QP Sport GT. It's the hottest car on the road and turns everyone's head, including my friends with Lambo's and 430s...

Fun and Fast
This car is very interesting to drive. The suspension and handling feel like you are on rails and the car is drop dead gorgeous.
You will LOVE the Quattroporte!
If you love to DRIVE a spirited, vibrant car, one that smells like a great car should, one that sounds like a great car should, one that pleases your eye from every angle, every time, every day...then go get a 2006 Quattroporte! This is a rare and beautiful bird that you will find expensive to fix, but they don't break often..mine has had all the recalls done, and I found the clutch wear has been very acceptable....and clutches will be your most regular, costly expense ($5000 or so) very 30000 miles if you drive it smart, and in manual-sport..which listen that was this was designed to be driven in..if you need to used the AUTO button, get a 2007 or later with a true auto tranny. You are going to love this car!

Very Impressed
My 2007 QP has been nothing short of spectacular since the day I picked it up. I am happy I went went w/the DuoSelect. It is one of the best features of this car, smooth and very easy to master. I have owned BMWs, MBs, Jags. Nothing attracts as much attention on the road. It may be one of the most beautiful cars ever built! The engine sounds terrific (it is difficult to keep the revs below 4-5000 rpms on the upshifts, the engine is so willing to sing) and the interior would put a Bentley to shame. Gas mileage has averaged about 14 mpg overall. No problems so far after 2 months and 2800 miles. I would highly recommend this car for anyone who wants a car with real personality.
