I don't care for the HRE 948R design, & I'm never a fan of this car at all.

I've never been a fan of this car at all. Probably because the only QP's I see in my area are all Silver. But the design is very slowly growing on me. I've never seen one in blue and I think this looks pretty darn good with the new wheels. Like the interior color combination as well.

I think a more elegantly designed wheel would suit the car a lot better.

I used to hate the Quattroporte but I've got to say, it looks fantastic in person. I think this car needs to be lowered to look good... that and, as said before, the wheel design doesn't quite match the car.

I see a lot of these around here. Yeah, 20's won't do it. 21 or 22 for sure.
Beautiful car.
