thanks, im also very interested in the challenge and trofeo programs, now they even have the MC ones.
but i think its slowness is mainly due to the lack of fire power, nothing much happens before 5K and by that time u only have 2.5k to go before red line, so its pretty sad.
i said it a million times, u need atleast 500hp to feel some sh!t.
the overall lack of power surge reminds me of the 997.1 gt3.
went on some fast sweepers today with no twisties to open up the exhaust and bed in the carbon brakes. Car is very bounce on slightly bad roads but otherwise comfy around town.
Sound is awesome in race mode, my ears are still ringing after 150 miles of blast.
ferrari and maserati tried very hard to differentiate the brands and they did an incredible job.
although some switch gears are the same, it feels nothing like my fcars in driving feel and touch of materials, and they manage to make it less expensive feeling than the ferraris!! I would think they might surpass it a little in my optioned out example and from showroom observations, but no, ferrari manage to feel a teeny bit more in quality feel.
i never driven a maserati or think of owning one until i brought this home, got it mainly on looks alone.
so im a little surprised its such a lovely car to drive if lack of the power im used to.
But im flooring it from start up to shut down which never happened before, if it did, i be in a tree somewhere.
if u call that fun, i have to agree.
but distance calculation and approach takes a lot getting used to, i feel like superman in my ferraris, but sane in this one, u cant just floor it and know u can go pass, thru, around anything, u need to "calculate ur moves" like a normal human being, now that sucks a bit.
from the most pricey ferrari to the cheapest today :
