The number plate said 301KW which equates to just over 400bhp, so its not the diesel despite that sound at tickover.
So that makes it the Ghibli S, which is 4 wheel drive - except, as I recall, not coming for RHD markets
: 2979cc 24v twin-turbo V6, 404 hp. I must say the new QP doesn't do much for me so far, but the Ghibli is starting to look quite promising. That blue is lovely (and I'm thinking so would a darkish red, maybe since everyone else will be buying the blue...?), and it sounds good in this top spec. I quite like the idea of a twin turbo after my lovely 4.7 V8 (eventually...but not yet!). Seems very sensitive to colour scheme as others have said, and the Maserati white stick approach to launch colours hasn't helped up to now (oddly enough, same with the new Range Rover which was launched in pearlescent anaemia pink in dealerships). Not giving up hope just yet.
