Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT S

The Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT S is scheduled for a Detroit 09 debut and is supposed to be the “ultimate expression of Maserati’s sportiness” in the Quattroport range. While power is only up by a very little amount, most of the technical changes that differentiate the Quattroporte S and this new Sport GT S are in the details such as how aggressive it look and what kind of sound emits from its exhaust.

A minor increase from 317kW to 323kW (433 bhp) is achieved via remapping the 4.7 liter V8 engine also found in the Quattroporte S. The car’s gearshift management software also has been updated. The fron and rear suspension features single-rate dampers, stiffer springs and also contribute to lowering the car’s ride height.

On the exterior, the Sport GT S has a new black grille with concave vertical fins. The Trident logo has red accents, similiar to other sporty Maseratis. The headlamps have a metallic titanium finish, and the side trim on the doors, door handles, and twin oval exhaust tailpipes is called “shadowline”, which once again implies a darker look.

    its a nice looking car, however it isnt even close to a 5.0 litre v10 from the bmw m5. maybe thats why u dont see much of them around.

    although i love the the M5 very much.. the maserati is clearly a level above the bimmer in terms of sheer class and snob appeal. they should not be compared, because they target very different people.

    the M5 maybe sporty and the S-class maybe…. errr…. just another S-class for some lucky rich guys…

    but Quattroporte is really something different, especially when WOW! OHH! WOOHOO! coming out from your throat when u see this cruising on the roads..

    its the same reaction as when watching Flying Spur, XF etc etc passes by….

    yeah, in terms of brand, a maserati wins over the Merc or BMWs. strictly badge appeal.

    put a merc alongside this baby, chances are, people will think this is a super car.

    exactly, its special. u can put it a 1.0 litre proton engine inside this car but people will still think its fast.
