      Leider in den meisten Punkten. Abgesehen davon sind X3 und Macan schon sehr sehr lange auf dem Markt. Dazu kommen Wertverlust und Wartungskosten, die bei Maserati übel sind.
      Trotzdem ein tolles Auto, welches ich mit als V6 kaufen würde. Ich habe einen F-Pace V8. Die Deutschen sind auch etwas besser, aber der Jag V8 ist einzigartig.

      They will once they're discounted enough. Dealers are already advertising significant discounts.
      I actually find the Trofeo version appealing, and I hate Maseratis generally. They've really stepped up their interior quality, and it offers close to Macan GTS dynamics with a more usable rear seat. But I can't pull the trigger knowing how bad the depreciation would be.

      Maserati Is the Luxury Brand You Forgot About, Here Is Everything They Offer in 2022
      Maserati is a brand steeped in history. From Grand Prix winning race cars to exotic super cars, the Italian company has done it all. What about today? Are they still worth considering for your next car? Here is everything Maserati offers in 2022.
      Is Maserati a Luxury Car?
      From the plush Ghibli to the ferocious MC20, Maserati is a top-tier luxury brand.
      A storied brand with an audacious vision, Maserati's luxury cars range from the entry-level Ghibli to the highly-coveted MC20.
      At some point, every car enthusiast starts to wonder: how does it feel to rev a twin-turbo V8? Does hitting 60 mph in less than three seconds make you sick? And what’s the deal with carbon fiber, anyway?

    Here is a controversial opinion, the Genesis GV70 3.5T Sport Prestige blows this car out of the water across all aspects. Bigger engine, more HP, better interior, and much better exterior design as well (at least in my opinion), and $20K cheaper if the Modena is configured with same specs shown in the video.

      Some people are nouveau riche dorks, who think that buying a premium brand makes them cool. Meanwhile classy rich people realize it’s way more tasteful to be understated. Look at an Air France first class cabin and you’ll understand what understated luxury is. The reason the Germans absolutely dominated the luxury auto industry was they were well built and because their designs were traditionally very conservative. As soon as they shifted focus to make their vehicles more showy and appealing to new eastern customers many of their traditional buyers lost interest. With the exception of Porsche who never deviated and is doing better than ever haha.

    Maseratis are actually really reliable, and relatively easy to repair. It is the things like electronics, trim, fit and finish that always failed them. Although it seems those things have been addressed with these new models. Repairmen in the US are simply too expensive and not experienced in maintaining European cars, and this where the myth of "difficult to repair" comes from. Don't live in the middle of nowhere and dream of driving it, there will be no one to maintain it.

    • @labitcoineragt3596
      @labitcoineragt3596 Před 5 měsíci

      They’re exactly what you pay for. We have the grandturismo but the dealership is 2 hours away so it’s a hassle. They have certain Maserati accredited repair shops but I don’t necessarily trust them. The maintenance is costly, but my husband can do it himself and when we do travel near the dealership we have them do a full check up. It’s been an amazing car and now we’re looking to get the Grecale. Everything inside out is extremely lux and you can feel the difference from a bmw. The Macan is comparable but since we know and love Maserati we’ll go for that.

    I always love to read the comments when someone is reviewing a Maserati. Its amazing the amount of people that love to bash Maserati and I wonder how many have actually owned one or fit into the group of people Maserati targets. As someone who has owned 6 Maseratis (2 Ghiblis, 3 Levantes, 1 Grecale) only 1 of the Ghiblis had an issue where it needed to be in the shop. Maserati fixed, and I didn't have a single issue after that point. To say that a GV70 is a better vehicle is a stretch, if by better you mean cheaper price-wise, then sure. The GV70 uses a 6-cylinder to do what this is doing with a 4-cylinder if you compare the 4-cylinder GV70 it's no comparison. Its also interesting to see things people are willing to forgive BMW, Mercedes, and Porsche for doing, but when it comes to Maserati, the pitchfork and fire come out immediately. To say that Maserati isn't what it use to be, I welcome someone explaining this because their build quality and reliable are significantly better so what is it? The fact that they no longer use a V8? Why hate something so much yet come to watch a video about it? When I don't like something I don't care if my favorite CZcamsr is reviewing it I am simply not going to watch it unless I have some degree of interest in it.
    So fact remains as a person who has owned multiple, 1 out of 6 had an issue in the beginning that was quickly fixed. I trade every 2 years because I get bored with vehicles fast and my depreciation was in line with how I saw other vehicles depreciate, which is within the range you expect for luxury brands to depreciate. There are only a few vehicles that "appreciate." If you go to trade a vehicle and it seems like you didn't lose much that's because they made up the difference elsewhere either through the interest or some other organic add-on from the factory or otherwise. Study the art of the dealer.

      This is a Maserati... This is not an upstart brand from a company that could barely screw a car together 2 decades ago. In 50 years if the genesis is still around and has grown a proper reputation, price might be a valid point. As of now, anything sporting a trident on its bonnet gets a free pass costing 10%-20% more cause of that... They are sporting a frikin trident on their front. Status symbols have that added value. Plus, if were to analyze the the cars on its own, the Grecale has a better chasis, better engine, better sound, way better transmission,... So, pretty much the only Macan rival on the market nowadays. It can quite easily justify its pricetag over any Genesis, Acura, Lexus and other fake premium brands out there.
