Hi folks,
I don't own a Maserati but would most certainly like to sometime in the near(ish) future. I'm not ready for it yet because money, time and space (to put it, not the vacuum outside of earth) have to be right.
Oh and a bus lane (long story)
I currently drive (mostly) an Alfa GT dieseasal.

As above I have aspirations in the future for a 3200 or 4200 but it will replace the GT. However my eclectic tastes include many other cars so it could even be none Italian.
One thing I do like is an active car forum and this seems to be so hopefully even though I'm not a Maserati owner it'll still be an err enviously sorry enjoyable place :)

Hi Malc and welcome to the madness! Get yourself a Maser now and cut out all the mistakes you will eventually make to get here. It really is a consuming passion and once you get bitten you stay bit! I know I have and there are lots like me on here. Go on, you know it makes sense.

:D I've wanted one for awhile but I don't have room and not really the spare cash currently. I'd like to think that will happen eventually but I can wait and whilst I'm here learn much more about them than any magazine could ever tell you.
In my heart it's a 3200 GT I'd like (I love the boomerangs who on earth does not?). However just reading about the crank end float issues. You need to be aware and fully informed.

I'll just have to be a wannabe for awhile :D

Welcome, read as much as you can, do your research, and hopefully, get your 3200 when the time is right.

I am and have already been looking in the classifieds. There is the red AC. That looks an awful lot of car for the money...
BTW AC? What does that mean (sheepish grin)?

Nah, boomerangs are overrated. It's just a pity they didn't put them on the 4200. ;)

Do it. You'll immediately understand why as soon as you have. And you'll wonder what took you so long.

Welcome along, you of good taste. Get ready to have some fun but do your research first - there are plenty of people on here to help you out but once hooked, you'll never look back!

Much as I love the 32, obviously, if you are looking for a daily driver then the later 42 or GS are both probably more suited in that sense.........but if you are looking for a real weekend toy, look no further than the 32 - her two younger sisters can't hold a candle to her!

You have come to the right place, it took me a year to find mine so take your time....I bought an AC, they are great but rare, a good sorted 3200 is a good buy, if Phil is selling then it will need for nothing
