    Would love to see more manufacturers introduce Apple Car Play / Android retrofits to their older cars. Porsche did it for the 996, waiting eagerly for the 997...

    Second that.  It would make them much more usable on a daily basis.

    They didnt for the 997?!? Wow, I would have thought those “classic” pcm systems would also fit the 997, never realized they don’t.

    off-topic, but, yes, PCCM plus for 987 and 997 in the works, and delayed, currently...

    I always associate Maserati with one of my all-time favourite films, "La Piscine (French film 1969)".

    The Maserati legend was very strong at that period of time. The Bora and the Ghibli were considered equal to or even better than the Ferraris.

    The Ghibli was such a beautiful car. While the modern Ghibli doesn't hold a candle to it, I still think it was a nice looking sedan when it launched, too bad the quality is so poor on those.

    Sorry but Maserati never interested me and my former Porsche dealer is a Maserati and Aston Martin dealer now.

    Speaking of Aston Martin: Same thing.

    Only two Maserati models made an exception: I liked the GrandTurismo MC Stradale and I like the new MC20 (not so much the engine setup but the design).

    Aston Martin? There is only one I like: The V12 Vantage.

    Can't help it. Smiley

    DBS is really the only Aston Martin I've seriously considered.
