I have seen them at the auto show, but never in person. Some italian looking guy taking guido to the job site near my house.
I love that car. And the fact it's not over the top expensive.
The 4 door that is.

in person, the car is absolutely gorgeous... that paint is miles deep.

I honestly don't see what's 'overdone' about the car... it's a maserati, it's supposed to look pimp (and it does), leave understated to the phaeton.
If i had 3 kids and a trophy wife, our second car would be the quattroporte. The first car being my murcielago.

these cars are not that rare if you think about it, I saw a red one come thru the Dt 3 weeks ago, with two older ladys in it.
I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.

I don't like the styling that much, it just seems a bit too plain for what it is. Then again I have not seen one in person and that might change my mind. What do these cars MSRP for anyways?
***want to buy***
MBRP................ check
SCT Xcal2 ........ check
VF mounts
Adj. Dampers ... check

Overall, Its a very nice ride, shifts smooth (paddle shift or automative), fast, if you wanna put it this way: It has its own soul.
