"Excellent looks from the front and interior"
Pros: Looks, custom leather
Cons: slow to drive compared to half priced M3, S4, S5: Not as stylish at the back end
Summary: Maserati needs to increase the horses to atleast 500 to compete with the other similarly priced beautiful Audi R8 or much cheaper Jaguar XKR.
I don't agree with CNET review saying "The only other car we've seen that looks this good is the Audi S5" as Audi R8, Jaguar XKR look as good or even better than this car and they perform better too!

I agree. Maserati state that's its meant for comfort but I think that made it too sensible. But then again, a bigger engine like the one in the Alfa 8C would mean more servicing costs which would put me off. I got the 2009 regular GranTurismo. The GranTurismo also has good resalse values. 2008 models that have been driven like 8-10,000 miles (basically been thrashed a year) go for around 96,000 dollars. Jaguar is known for reliablity issues and its resale values are very bad. The Audi R8 is nice but its too low and too small. I needed a car with 4 seats (5 on a bad day) so i went with the GranTurismo.
