I've edited mine, as I wouldn't want a wrong answer lingering about!

Be inclined to put in a spread....rather than an average Ross........after all which of we Maseratisti would admit to being average.....

thanks for all the repiles guys, to be honest it was a customer of mine from Poland that was steering me away from the CC, i think hes had alot of problems with his car, and was trying to be quite careful in advising me.

im in the trade of performance parts supply anyway, so getting bits to make it faster, louder or indeed fix it shouldnt be a problem, but the cars i usually have are somewhat reliable, so dont want to get something that will be on the ramps all the time.

from what it seems, either will be ok......and clutches, whether its paddle or manual will last different amounts depending on how many gear changes you make on your journey

cheers

Hi James and a big welcome to the forum....Good luck in you quest for a Maserati

 

[VMSRTI]

........well if a heavy metal star AndyK, might be tempted back into the fold!!!

Well it got the better of me and I just had to know so I contacted the seller.
Not a metal star in fact (hope I don't offend anyone) cough cough .....hardly a star cough cough. Well at least not in my circles.
First owner was Simon Rix of the Kaiser Chiefs.....................

Well at least he has good taste in cars even if his music is not my cuppa.

Wasn't he one of the guys that knew when civil disobedience was in the offing? Good taste in cars as well.

Keen fan of Ruby Murrays, too.

A 4200??
Great car, i have driven the cc and thats what id buy....

Would you be tempted with a black 3200? In auto those cars are also worth looking at as they could be had for less than a 4200

Ever the salesman Dem x

nah, the 3200 isnt for me....my current car is a Mitsubishi GTO Twin Turbo running around 500hp, so im looking to get away from the turbos for a while......simple (ish) V8 will do me fine

Kaiser chiefs..............weren't they big in WWI?

[Phil the Brit]

Love the Kaiser Chiefs, last saw them last week in Newmarket. Once flew in a private jet with Ricky Wilson (lead singer) and the rest of the band.

 

[dem maser]

i predict a RIOT!!!!!!!

 

[dem maser]

What a tune......

 

[hodroyd]

The Black 3200 that Dem mentioned is in fact an Assetto Corsa, a bit different to a standard 3200 and getting quite rare. You can have loads of BHP like the Merc AMG, which does not go very far initially just burns off loads of your rubber, who on earth wants that..?? The AC is a Bi-Turbo track prepared car and is a great performer, handles like it's on rails....worth a thought..??

 

[dem maser]

couldnt have put it better Robert....the car handles excellently, keeps up with most supercars......

 

[hodroyd]

Dem,
It is a Supercar mate, very under rated until you have driven one, you lucky man, so only sell to someone who deserves it..!!

As does the 4200, in my experience.
