A Maserati is what you buy when you're too old for a Ferrari.

>be Ferrari's main competitor for decades
>start leaking money because you're still much smaller in scale and with lesser distribution
>end up bought by your own rival
>the cuck the living shit out of you and use you to put out uninspired "luxury" cars and lesser sport cars while they keep the spotlight all to themselves
That said, classic Quattroporte will always make my dick hard

The inferior option.

I've always hated them for some reason, even though I've seen a couple that I liked the design for... Meh

If i had any talent at all, id photoshop "WAT" on the spoiler of these images

"Couldn't afford a Ferrari"

that's the only thing I think when I see one

>>15956771
The only good Maserati worthy to buy is the Quattroporte which got pretty nice user and journalist feedback. The GT has dated well. The Ghibli got negative reviews in ride comfort vs other cheaper entry luxury sedans like the C-Class, IS and 3 series but anyway people buy it to have the badge and the styling.

the new cars are shit
but let's face it every car designed after 1999 is shit
otherwise always cool cars with funny fucked up story

I love the newer ones like in OP's photo. I know their performance isn't there, but my God, do I love the design.

They look like something that came out of the sea. Its awesome

>>15957141
I love how the towing ring is so brightly colored.

really appropriate on an italian car full of "passion" and "soul"

there was also a chrysler maserati

>>15956771
As already said, the old ones are beautiful
in the new range, only the quattroporte worth it
The GT had bad years but it seems that the last one are better
Sadly they don't have that luxury feel as before (Ghibli with a 3.0L V6 Diesel wtf?!?)
All their V8 have a truly great sound

I liked the ghibli in fast 7 that jason Statham had

They're not in my price range so I don't give a shit about them

>>15956771
Used to have the most god-tier interiors.
Now they have caddy-tier plastic trash.

>based on the Chrysler 300
>330hp v6 with twin turbos when Chrysler's v6 has 305hp

>>15956771
Forgettable Italian company that depreciates faster than anything else in the world.
> buy car for $100k+
> sell a year later for $30k

The pricy "I'm unique" car brand. They're nothing unique, desu. I'd choose a BMW M4 anyday and its probably cheaper than the Maserati w.e I don't even remember its name. Not the Ghibli.

>>15956771

Designed by:
The most retarded italian car designers

Bought by:
The most cancerous of the nouveau riche

Worked on by:
The wealthiest mechanics

A few of them sound really good, but that's literally all they have going for them. They're garbage in every way too.

All I know is that my town in suburban upper middle-class NJ has the most Maseratis I've seen. I don't even know where everyone buys them.

Hi Joe Walsh.

>Maserati techs
>wealthy
The dealership techs get fucked, most of them can barely make 35 hours a week. The pay is the same as any other brand. Doesn't help that the 2014 and forward cars are completely different than the 04-13 cars, you are pretty much working on two entirely different brands.

~80% of maseratis are leased

because they are made for nigger rich posers

Shitty "luxury" car
Shitty "sports" car

The Mercedes S class is miles ahead a better luxury car. Even the new 7 series is more of a luxury car than a Maserati. Sports wise is a joke, their last sport car came like 10 years a ago and since then forget about it.

The brand is alive only because of FCA

>>15960757

just leave a message....

>>15960878
This. Literally one of the poorfags who pretend to be rich. I dislike them becaus- wait, actually, no. Fuck, I like them. They bring money to the economy.

>>15956771
Okay, so why are Maseratis always in the workshops? What makes them break down easily?

>>15961752
Being italian.
They don't break, it's just that your car wants to be lazy and to fuck all.

>>15956771
the granturismo is the best sounding stock car

>>15956771

Some of the best sounding cars I've ever heard. They look pretty luxury too thats about it.

You lost your license, now you don't drive.

>>15956771

Beautiful style. Very average car. A jack of all trades, master of none. For the same amount of money you can get a car that preforms better, is more luxurious, and so on. That being said if I was a millionaire I would DD one.

look at any old old maserati and realize they they really option their cars well and after they depreciate they are a pretty good value

>>15956771
Nowadays they're just rebadged Dodges.

Maserati is just getting started, they've added a lot of new technologies for 2017 M.Y., sales of the Levante have just began and they already have over 14,000 orders, will easily be their best selling vehicle, production of the Alfieri will begin soon as well.

>>15956829
Maserati is imcomparable to Ferrari. Maserati is understated while Ferrari is overstated.

probably knows very little about cars, shit interior too

>>15957483
they didn't make the citroen SM they just made the engine for it when Citroen bought them

The brand that poor fags want to look rich in, but still poorer than an S550 owner.

a mate's grandfather had one of these. Absolutely gorgeous

Luxury cars, with pretty nice design, great engines, and Italian, fags.

>>15956771
I saw ghibli today in dark blue. It looks much better than any new bmw or mercedes. More sporty and exotic.
