  • In this episode I review a 2007 Maserati Quattroporte. The Quattroporte is a four-door sedan from the Italian brand Maserati, which was first introduced in 2003. We look at the exterior and the interior, and then get it out on the road to see how it drives!

    I’v had My 2009 QP Exec GT since new. I can afford anything else but none has convinced me they are worthy of being the Maser replacement.
    It’s Going on its 13th year n it still makes the hair on back of my neck stand like the first time i saw my wife.
    I am blessed. Thank you, God.

      Would you say a '07 exec gt with 96k Odo Worth 9000$? Because I'm looking at one that's a Nieman Marcus edition

      Also, any year after 2009 are the ones without tranny issues right?

    You should change gear before or after a corner so not to upset the balance of the car. That’s why the Italians mount paddle on the column and not the steering wheel

  • @mattbettany1174
    @mattbettany1174 Před 8 měsíci +5

    I have to disagree, Personally I think the looks are timeless and have aged beautifully. But that’s the thing, everyone has their own opinion and the world would be a terrible place if we all thought the same

    Design-wise, it is different in a world of look alike sedans. What I hate about the redesign is the taillights look like a Kia. Take away the badges of most cars and you can't tell them apart.
    So take the uniqueness as a positive you won't be mistaken for a Korean car.

    Probably the wrong spot for this request and you may have reviewed one and I missed it.
    Can you source and review a 8 cylinder jaguar F Type (rag roof if possible)
    My friend has one but is locked down in Melbourne for now and I am busting to know if they are as good as he says they are
    Drove one of these Maser's at Sandown on a Maserati track day and they sounded great but I was underwhelmed (think fussy old fart this end)
    What was more impressive was the S class S63 on an AMG track day that I was lucky enough to attend

    I think the one I own the next generation (2015-present) QP GTS is a much better looking car and performance is superior with the Ferrari 488 engine 530hp/710nm torque 0-60mph 3.9secs. Also sound is still good with better tech. The Granturismo MC Stradale is the next Maserati I would go for just for the sound.

    Wanted one of these for the longest time, a beautiful silver over red interior popped up in my area with practically no miles for the age. What a piece of 💩. It drove like a brick and left my fingers covered in what looked like coal dust from the sticky buttons. I never appreciated my 19 Avalon better then on the ride home from the dealership. It’s a beautiful car but wow was I disappointed.

    Horrible review. It’s utterly stupid to criticize an old car for having an old interior. That can be said for literally EVERY 2007 car ever made. Then to go on and speculate that a new owner will inherit “astronomical” repairs is lazy and ignorant. How about making an effort to research what actual owners have encountered? Or, just not touching on things you know nothing about and limiting your review to commenting on what you can actually, factually report on?
