GS Spyder!!!!

[Woody]

How did you manage to get these figures/production numbers of the GS?? did the Maserati Club UK give them to you??

Do you have a list of the U.K GS Spyders and the colours they are??

I'm working on a registry for all UK GS's. I figured I have a decent amount of info from when I was looking, I might as well put it all in one place! I've no real clue how to do it just yet but am busy collecting the info. Its tricky for the more common colours as I cant get chassis numbers just reg's and reg's change a lot.

Oh yes, seen that, i think it is on Flickr, there is also a Green GS as well, coupe, bet it is the only GS in green, actually no it is not, because i think the Green one i found on Flickr has tan interior and Meridien last year had a Green GS for sale and it had a Grey with red piping interior.

Do you mean spyder or coupe?

There's one Spyder in green and three coupes. GrayPaul had one when I was looking which had beige. Theres this one too, which is loooooovely! Avorio I think. Again, not my pic.

Not looked at it like that - just quickly (am about to walk out the door), I think about 1/3rd of all UK GS's are nero carbonio.

I have to say, this looks stunning in Green.

so what were the numbers again, about 350 GS's were officially brought to the U.K including 24 Spyders?

Here is the 05/55 GS Coupe in Verdi i mentioned earlier with the Grey interior. I liked this car a lot, took time to sell though.

i think the 2004 is Tech Cloth, i have an old evo magazine with meridien's ad in it, they had a Yellow one in and it had tech cloth, think it is a 54 reg.

The 2005 one is a 55 as Andy looked at that car i think.

2005 55 was the yellow GS I looked at ... Had black leather with with yellow piping and yellow calipers .... Very yummy ...

 

[GransportFan1]

Would love to know where that car is and the Yellow Spyder.

 

[Woody]

Looks great in Giallo.

I like the first pic you've posted Adam, very nice.

Re numbers, something like 417 all up including 24 Spyders and 15 MCVs. The numbers need firming up but its that order of magnitude.

 

[GransportFan1]

Yes it does look rather nice in Green.

Would love to see a Giallo one at an Auto Italia/Maserati event.

417, quite a few, How did you find out about the Spyder's?? i knew only 15 MCVs as i read it on a MCV that was for sale.

The victory GS is that the same for the GS as the AC is for the 3200

That pic of the green one does look rather nice....Seen one in the floesh on silver wheels and I didn't float my boat then..

Yes it is Dem, the MC Victory is a road going special edition of the 4200 Trofeo car.

 

[dem maser]

So a natural progression from an AC could be a victory??

 

[Andyk]

Yes it is Dem, the MC Victory is a road going special edition of the 4200 Trofeo car.

Well sort of Adam ... It's really a special edition GS .... The only difference is the seats, carbon fibre bits, flags on the wings, alcantara interior and a plaque on the inside...It was made to celebrate the MC's winning the championship and really has very little in common with the Trofeo car apart from its the same shape.

well it is like the F430 Scuderia, only shares the stripped out interior and rear diffuser as the F430 Challenge series car.

 

[Andyk]

Nothing like that Adam ... The Ferrari had more power I believe and was lighter..The MC Victory was none of those things .... I love the car Adam as you know but it really was Maserati trying to get rid of the last remaining GS bodies by bringing out a limited edition at the end of the GS life ...... I still love it but it's no stripped out light weight car....It was really a marketing exericise to sell some cars...

 

[GransportFan1]

The GS MCV has really grown on me, i was not a fan of all that suede but i do like it now, the seats are my fave though.
