You asking abt price or performance?
From my knowledge, Mersaratis are never as 'expensive' as ferraris. It's more inclined towards the Porsche range. Ermmm around dat of the 911 Carrera?
It still lies in the sub-$500k region la -
ok ok.. so it means still consider as an expensive car rite ?
yup how abt its performance ? any idea ?

Official limo of the Italian Govt.
0-100 5.2secs (a conservative estimate)
Price was around $430k when launched in 2004. -
Maserati Quattroporte is a 4 seater vehicle.
engine: 4244cc
horse power: 400bhp
0-100 km/h: 5.2 sec
1st hand would cost abt $380k.
My colleagues are driving them.
Price wise is cheaper than Ferrari. -
Thats because only a "towkay" here in sg would buy big cars like these and you know what their choices are already.. merc & bimmers .Originally posted by subarugal:ok ok.. so it means still consider as an expensive car rite ?

Well, the Quattroporte was on display at ngee ann city not too long ago with other Italian makes. I must say that this car is rather special and it does not appeal to the masses like how the BMW 7 series and Mercedes S class does. If you were to ask a car noob whether he/she knows what is a Maserati, chances are that they won't know. Therefore in this brand conscious society like what Singapore is, Maseratis will always be rare and only for the exclusive who are able to appreciate Italian cars. If you were to take a closer look at the gear shift of the Quattroporte, you will realise it is not like your conventional auto.
Known as the duo-select transmission which is also found on Maserati Spyders and Coupes but known as Cambiocorsa. The Quattroporte is also fitted with Brembo brakes if I am not wrong -
a very nice car.
i would rather have this then a 745Li or a S430 lor. -
I would love to have that too but just not here in sg... There is not much of a re-sale market for that !Originally posted by TwinTurbo_Supra:a very nice car.

Yes, i agree. It actually fit nicely into the segment of "a sporty luxury car", something like a S55 AMG, which emphasis more on the sport aspect but it cannot be said that luxury was sacrified.Originally posted by AF1:Well, the Quattroporte was on display at ngee ann city not too long ago with other Italian makes.

Yeah and like the MERC CLS.. But i don't like the quattroporte's driver's cockpit & the centre console. It doesn't look italian to me.. The wood trim looks very old..Originally posted by free4ever:Yes, i agree.
