Is Owning A Maserati GranTurismo Worth It???

I owned this particular one for 2.5 years, here's how I feel about it!

I love mine, I drive it on the weekends and I daily a range rover, one of the biggest money pits known to man (besides my ex wife!)

The Maserati Grandturismo is the most Facinating car I've owned. And I've owned over 60 cars. So much speed and exotic thrills 👍👍👍

Worth every penny puts a smile on my face every Time I turn the key

I have owned my Maserati Gran Sports for eleven years. ZERO ISSUES.NADA.NONE. NOW I WILL BUY THE NEW ONE, BUT STILL KEEP THE OLD ONE. AWESOME CARS TO DRIVE, AND LOOK AT.

I made this plunge last fall. If you get a good price on a good car- man it is tough to beat. It def has its quirks and little small issues (for example- sometimes you start driving it and the thermostat jumps into the red- and at first you panic- but then you stop, turn the car off - check the engine bay- and once you see no issues you crank it back up and the thermostat is fine- little things like that all the time). And I think you need to find a good mechanic/shop - not the financially ruinous Maserati dealer- for basic maintenance and then you will be happy. I personally don’t think the car is really a daily driver (at least not with the F1 transmission) but if you only drive it when you are really in the mood to do some driving- then I will put the costs per smile value up against ANYTHING

I owned a 2008 and a 2014 and loved every minute of it! People always think they are unreliable, but I never had a problem, but if you do it will cost 3-4 times more than a regular car. So you need to find an independent mechanic to work on them which would make it a little less costly.

I own a 928s (5sp), 997/911, E320 Cabriolet, and a SQ 4 Ghibli. I get so excited about driving to work it's often hard for me to go to sleep the night before. You have one life. These cars make me look forward to my commute and errands. I keep all of them pristine. I highly recommend the experience. Seems worth it to me.

Everything he said was a 100%bang on when you start it up everyone looks around at you yep I drove the length of France in one no soar bum no aches or complaints from the two of us. Wicked car I wanted one badly, , ever since i got to drive one for the day. I don't comment or like video but this man done a great job describing the car and that feeling you get from the experience of 🚗driving one

Friends - this is a GT car meant to cruise at very high speeds, for a long time, on the autobahn. If Maserati wanted to build a drag car, they would. If Maserati wanted to build a car to compete with Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, McLearn etc…they could easily do that. The MC20 is a great start. For all you haters out there….have you really owned one, driven a good example of one? Do you realize how heavy this car is? Imagine if Maserati decided to turbo charge their 4.7 V8 and lightened the car…the performance is already amazing with a naturally aspirated V8 but if you added some forced induction…it would blow a lot of these other cars away. You buy a Maserati for the fantastic engine and GT experience. You do not buy it for Technology…you drive it for the high speed touring capabilities this car has…this car will cruise at 175+ all day, on 4.7 liters without turbos all day. Haters, buy a good example and then post your thoughts. If you just want some boring German, silver, turbocharged sedan buy a Mercedes, BMW or Audi…or…a Hemi, Ford or any other muscle car…the majority of the people post things and they have no clue what they are talking about…and for the record, Social media is fucking stupid, so is Tic Toc, Facebook, Instagram and all that other shit…get off your ass, get a degree, and then buy a Maserati. Get off your phones…and develop some people skills.

I’ve been dreaming about one for ages now. Unfortunately, I’m just an old(er) disabled Navy veteran, and the budget just doesn’t allow it. Still, I look at them on CarMax nearly every day just in case I ever win the big one. 🤞I think it’s one of the most beautiful cars I’ve ever seen.

I have a 2012 facelift, white outside black wheels. No issues, although my drivers window just fell into the car door as the regulator wire snapped. Maintenance is easy to do yourself, battery can be an issue.

Great video. I’ve seen a ton of Maserati review videos but yours still was original.

[andybroer]

Nice review. I've had 2 now for about 3 years each. Taken them on special trips and to the car wash or a car show like Concorso Italiano during the Monterey Car Week in August. The only issue I have had is the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) when I first bought the GranCabrio S it wasn't working. Got it sorted out, but it still occasionally loses its mind. I carry a $2 tire pressure gauge with me in the glove box - problem solved! I'm 6'1" and can easily fit behind my driving position in the back seat. I'd be fine back there for going out to dinner with another couple. The rear seats are much more useable than a 911, Aston DB9 or Ferrari Roma. 0-60 takes about 4.5 sec, the Cabrio is about 4.7 sec... both are capable of 180+ mph top speed, although I've only taken one to 145 mph so far 🙂Great looking car, great sounding car, naturally aspirated Ferrari built V8 (the last you'll see in a Maserati) I consider these future classics that if it is cared for it will go up in value in the years ahead.

I had mine for 3 yrs only issue was the hdu in the infotainment system which I did myself an easy fix. Apart from that never skipped a beat 👍 Amazing cars.

[stanlee]

Two years in for me, The answer is yes, if you maintain it properly. Make sure you keep the battery on a charger and start the engine regularly. Don’t leave it sitting. If you have to struggle to buy it, don’t buy it because won’t be able to afford to repair it. Parts and labor for anything needed is going to be super expensive. Keep it charged! If the battery isn’t at 100% all sorts of things stop working.

Great review man! Thanks for sharing some honest insight. I can't get enough of of this car.

[Tizzydr]

Man thanks for this video I’ve been thinking on getting one and your video helped me make my decision

[mikeardini]

Great video! Had the same car before mine got totaled, amazing car very reliable, no need for any tech, just listen to the symphony screaming from the exhausts. Recommend X-Pipes, sounds better than any car on the road till this day!

I bought my MC brand new in 2018, with all possible options. I have now 10K miles. Never had any problems with it. The car is a great GT car for long drives, and weekends. My is a convertible, so the only problem with that is, that trunk space is ridiculously small. Other than that, it’s a great car. Since I have quite few cars, I don’t intend to sell it, it’s a keeper !! Oh, since it’s a 2018, by that time Maserati ironed out all the wrinkles, and infotainment was upgraded to a touch screen.
