New GT Stradale - Best GT yet

[bigbob]

This is the absolute core of my frustration and unwillingness to hand over to Maserati large £££ for something like a new GTS or Stradale.

Take the currenty Stradale: 110-120K, but:
Platform = QP = ~12 years old
Cambio Corsa = ~11 years old
4.7 V8 lump = ~7 years old

Putting aside 'prestige' and 'exclusivity', is this really VFM when compared to, say, an R8 V10?

The residual values are a good indicator.

I'm sure there will be some who say "it's not about value for money" ... well that's great for those with so much money that they don't have to worry about what it translates into!

Sensible stuff. Residuals are still ok despite the old tech. Similar story for Aston Martin.

An R8 would appeal to me big time if two seats would do.

certainly a 70's/80's company with 70's/80's ideology, as all the Italian Co's are I deal with. They need to step up to the plate, but don't think that will happen some how. Now where are my flares.....
