First post and first Maserati.

[Bmc]

Hi,
After spending several months poring over posts on this forum, I finally bit the bullet in September and purchased a 2013 Grancabrio sport via Richard Grace.
Two reasons for this post, other than to just say hello, firstly thanks to all of you who take the time to share your knowledge and make the forum a great source of information. Secondly a bit of a plug for Richard Grace, who was an absolute pleasure to deal with and negotiated a great deal on my behalf. I had seen a number of positive posts on here, and noticed that he was local to me, hence the initial contact.
Here's to many years of happy ownership and big smiles every time I turn the key.

I have to say that I've never been a huge GC fan but that one does look very nice, well done!

 

[Andyk]

That's just lovely...Face lift to me looked perfect on the GC and they are my favourite GT / GC wheels. Lovely car...Well done.

Looks really lovely - I was asking Richard About similar ones.
Please tell me the cost started with a 6...

Price was well into 6 territory. Came with low mileage (<14k) and full Maserati warranty to July 2018. I did see huge variation in price for the several that I looked at during the hunt, one came down £10k at a franchised dealer and still looked over priced. Suspect it will always be a buyer's market and will have to try to remember that when time comes to sell.

These do not seem to be dropping in price. The cheapest sport is a non facelift in red at 58k....and even most non face lift start with a 6. Not many Sports for sale I suppose..

Welcome and lovely car, the GC has really grown on me over the years fortunately well outside my price range

Lovely looking car. I would but it just doesn't work as a grand tourer unless you use the rear seats for your luggage which doesn't quite work.
