All the reviews say they are old school and all the better for it.....(Although old school for me is a manual box ��) ........ But as soon as you say old school it will only appeal to the enthusiast and people like us which us a limited market for sure....I really can't see them selling many before the replacement comes out.....and bet not many will pay the retail price.
Maserati is a limited market anyway.
You won't pinch sales from the Ferrari/Lambo/Macca brigade.
Porsche drivers like Porsches because they do everything well, albeit a bit sterile in some cases (especially at the GT price point).
People buy Maserati's because they are Maserati's. Because they looks great, sound great and at normal road behaviour are as good as anything on the road. It's when you want that extra 10-15% is where they 'fall down'. But to the normal drivers out there, they are awesome.
This is the point that is missed in car mags. All the test drivers drive the best cars in the world. So when you drive something that is awesome in real world driving and just ok when on the limit, they're not going to give it great scores.
People should drive cars and make their own opinion of them before rubbishing them (like your standard pub expert who drive a Vauxhall Vectra).
Take a man out of a Vectra and put him in a Maserati and he'll think it's the best car ever!
Take a man out of a Ferrari F12 and put him in a Maserati and he'll say "it's ok".
