The Maser for so many reasons. Sound, looks, sound, exclusivity and the sound it makes is intoxicating!

If it were me it would be between the Maser and the XKR-S. Also a great sound, more exclusive than the bimmer and should be a bit more DD friendly.

had a m6 coupe on order and drove the M6 vert. bought a GT MC. the BMW is a nice coupe but to me just looks like a bigger 3 series coupe. nothing exciting about the bmw to me. also if you want to be able to put an adult or 2 in the back seat, they comfortably fit in the maser, M6 for small children at best.

 

Still dont get how any guys here respect or like the MC this car is such a dog it is not even in the same class as the M6 or M5 ... it is a slow POS GT car that sounds good... and the depreciation will make an LP 640 cry..

 

But.

It does sound damn good.

 

Came close to replacing my 997 GTS with a Maser Sport, and my take would be for the Maser. Basically, the car is an 'experience' to drive at any speed, any setting. For the most part it's all about the sound. No, not the fastest car in the world, but always FUN.

I have driven the new M5 and can tell you it's only fun at go-straight-to-jail speeds. The turbos and artificial engine sounds are just not natural, and it can be felt.

My first comment probably begs the question: why didn't I go with the Maser? Because I rediscovered my love for a true sports car by driving my 911 the way it should be while I thought things over. But I'm still intoxicated by the sound. I also LOVED the interior of the Maser. It's a very emotional experience.

As for the (lack of) updated tech in the Maserati? Who cares? I don't want to surf the Internet while I'm driving my car. All I need is decent Bluetooth and access to ESPN & Blue Collar Comedy on XM. Who cares about Twitter feeds and Bluetooth streaming...just drive the damn car and leave the technology for when you arrive at your destination.

 

the maser is a gt coupe with a real back seat. the m5 is a 4 door sedan with a big motor and the 997 is sports car. if you want a gt coupe you are basically talking aston martin, m6, bentley coupe. for me the decision was clear, gt mc.

 

You have the MC Stradale or the MC Sportline Ed?

If Stradale, how's the backseat in the Stradale? Backseat in the GT(S) is really decent for a coupe.

 

I have the MC sportline - the Stradale I believe is not available in the US and I thought it did not have a back seat.

 

Thanks for the input everyone. My M6 should be here by early December. Space Grey over Black Merino with Carbon Fiber trim. 20 inch M light alloys and B/O Sound
