There is a guy at my gym with a new red Maserati convertable. Nice cars but they don't stand out like Ferrari's or Lamborginis but that might be the appeal of them. People always joke and say somebody accidently hit his car in the parking lot.

That interior is crazy beautiful. I really like it. But I don't know if I would trade my GS for it.

Jonny, your GS is supercharged?

nice Maserati... I agree that they don't stand out as much as Ferrari's or Lambo's, but defintiely I think that is part of the appeal. Still high end, upscale, exclusive and badass, but not quite no the same level of attention-***** as the F-car or Lambo.

Was at the Ferrari Maserati dealer a few months back and checked this car out. It is quite nice and the customizing options can make for some nice interior combos. IMO, the car didn't wow me but in the presence of a handful of prancing horses, it is a different beast. How do you take in the Spyder when an Enzo was 20 feet away?

I'd keep the GS even if it is way conservative.

After all your work (past and upcoming), don't even think about it.

The interior is hot. Is there wood anywhere else other than the wheel? You could take him. You have gears, a TC, and a supercharger. You have atleast 375 hp at the wheels. He has 390 at the crack. ALso you have all those mods to make sure your putting all that hp to the ground.
