Grancabrio Spotting

Saw these bad boys at Javier's in Crystal Cove this evening. I actually kind of liked them, but thought the coupe looks better and the white one especially looked quite feminine.

Why do I feel like I have seen the white one posted here before?

The white one was Maserati's press car, if I'm not mistaken. Either that, or it was at some dealership in FL as a demo car a couple of months ago.

I agree that the coupe looks way better. The Cabrio looks kind of porky for some reason.

Not often do I like the vert version better, and here is another good example. Coupes almost always look 100x better than the verts do.

Nice spot though. Lucky you!

They are both launch cars.

They charged everyone extra on the black car for matching black stitching

I posted a pic of the white one.

A nice looking cougar was driving it at C&C a week ago.

Oh, and thanks for giving me a call UBC. I'm hurt.

I'm gonna have to agree, the only verts i like that dont look bad with the top up or down are F cars (355, 360 and 430), Gallardos dont look bad either and the 6 series BMW.
