the car was originally grey with coral interior...
white would have been easyer on the eyes, but i kinda like it in red. a little over the top, especially the rims though... I think in person the color scheme would look more subtle. the car was ill proportioned to start with and dull, and i think mansory guys sure took care of both, without a major redesign.
as for the interior, i find the original maserati interior looks very cheap (like really bad! i kinda hate it actually. of course i am comparing it to bentley gt, RR Ghost, or even porsche panamera. I know price difference is signifficant, but the gap in quality and overall feel is huge.), all plastic and lacks finess, so any improvement is an improvement. Mansory, regardless of hit or miss design, always does a very high quality job, so i am very fond of the improvements in the interior.
just to make it clear: i think the maserati gt is not a good looking car, but i am yet to see a 2 door 4 seater (4 adults, not midgets or kids) car which is not ill proportioned, and has some traits of a sports car. but since i have to transport 4 people sometimes, there was no bettre option.
tinted windows and rear lights will improve the color balance a bit i think.
atleast i can be 100% sure the car is unique...

The blue/yellow Panamera is also unique. Not that Maserati looks like that..
Just saying being unique for the sake of uniqueness is kinda dumb.

u do realize rapide is just as small inside, if not smaller? actually maserati has more leg space cause there is no center console in between the seats.
would i look like an attention whore driving it? i sure would. but it has been a while since i stopped caring what other people might think, so that does not really bother me that much. just a bit.
if it was my only car i would have some regrets, but this is not the case. and the more i look at it the more i like it. i think that lowering the suspension and adding a skirt made the car look more rigid, which is nice. also if someone know how to use photoshop, try tinted windows and rear lights, looks less flashy cause u cant see the red interior. and there is nothing wrong with having a red car.

lol
I'm not very good at photoshop, but I'm going to see if I can change the colors up and see how the mansory maser looks in other colors.
