If you’re going to review a 2019 GT get an Italian to do it...

Is there anyone else here that honestly doesn’t think, putting my ownership head aside, that the GT is one of THE best sounding cars period.

I think it’s that good. How on earth are Maserati not living off that reputation going forward.

You're wrong 'doc. Best sounding. Best looking. Best mood inducing.

If God made cars, the GT would be one of his.

And I'll tell you something else for free. The penny's finally dropped as to why the ICE is so hopeless.
Its because its totally irrelevant.

And the SatNav is deliberately ****.
Because its about the journey. Not the destination.

Maserati owners ought to be able to walk into work late and simply shrug at the boss, point at the car and say, "She made me do it."

As to your other point 'doc. That would require an answer more intelligent and less flippant than the above. So I'll pass :alan:

I agree that the 4.7 GT with the valved exhaust is one of the best sounding cars from the factory... It has taken me a few years of getting to get my stock 4200 exhaust to a sound level that is to the same as that.

Absolutely! Definitely my main reason for purchasing. Absolute aural perfection. Somehow manages to sound aggressive but classy at the same time.

Interestingly, that video is the first time I've heard a Sport Auto being driven hard, and I'm surprised how different it sounds to my MC-Shift. Don't get me wrong, its still a beautiful sound and almost identical on acceleration, but it's definitely missing some of the theatrics on lift off and down-shift.

A great review would have the presenter wringing the neck of whatever Maserati suits, saying nothing and then cuts to
what this guy does 5th Gear clip at around thirty two seconds. "Bellezza" and the crotch grab and that's it ;)
My ten cents :)

Zep, work on that Italian accent and find a young, attractive co-passenger with immense Gillette Venus leg shaving skills, and you got yourself a winning video!!


At least the shoes match the red trident accents ;)

My Italian accent isn’t bad, but it’s not as good as my Dad’s ;)
