    What the hell!!! Maserati Quattroporte Sport GTS

     

    Yesterday I was waiting on a public service to be attended and there was a used sports car Dealer nearby. To pass some time while waiting for my turn, I went there to see the cars. There was a Maserati that kept my attention because it had a very sporty look in & out. Dealer saw me and came to speak:

    After a couple of question he gave me the keys and we both went for a test drive. I was impressed by interior finish, all in carbon fiber, leather and alcantara with lots of beautiful and classy details. When I stepped on gas... OMG... what is that  Smiley Smiley Smiley the engine/exhaust sound is wonderful, I mean WONDERFUL. This is the Sport GTS which has 20" wheels, sport suspension, interior all in Carbon fiber & Alcantara and few other tasteful upgrades. I was amazed by this beauty, it sounded great, with good road feel, comfortable enough for our roads, some how it has the glamor of an exotic sedan! . Car is from 12/2008 but looks new in & out, always assisted at Ferrari dealer, did I mention the engine sound !!Smiley

    Went home, surf the net for info and today I came back and close the deal. I´m still a bit in shock, this  unexpected event has been wonderful to feel and live, I was far, far , far from a buying a car like this, but this specific Sport GTS  turn my head and I couldn´t resist. I am leaving the country today, so will only pick up the car 13 days from now, but felling good by this "adventure" Smiley

    Congratulations my friend! This is an excellent choice, the car sounds like the New York Symphonic Orchestra. My other friend here in Germany is driving the same car and as you say.... the sound is beautiful - you dont need a radio installation in this car. AMAZING.... Deal by hearts are usually the best ones! Adorable.... treat her well and enjoy her a lot. Thats a camouflage Ferrari! .... I have to plan to come to Lisboa again soon smiley

    Such a beatiful car, many congratulations J.Seven! wink

    I always like this Quattroporte and the Sport GTS is the best version. The design and the engine sound is to die for and even the build quality is better than many might think.

    Enjoy your new ride! kiss
