Nice car but I gotta admit, there's something about the center console that doesn't do it for me. Could have something to do with those plain looking climate control knobs.

Nice, but I like the Maserati much better. Italian cars just have a flair other cars can't match.

Good taste. I had one of the first GSs in Western Canada when they came out in 2005 (early 06 delivery). The exhaust note on that car is one of the most intoxicating I've ever heard.

The F1 box was fun for the first three months until I realized it's just a gimmicky and finicky automatic and when the clutch went at 3k mi I put the car for sale and never looked back. I'll never buy Italian again.

No, the only Italian car I've owned is the GranSport. That said, Maserati was purchased by Ferrari in 2005 and the newer cars, including the GranSport is Ferrari drivetrain and major components (430 engine and box). My car was in the shop getting tweaked constantly and the clutch going at 3k mi was ridiculous. They actually hit me up for $10k to get it repaired but managed to convince them to cover it under warranty. I got lucky because I sold it so quickly but the guy who bought it from me got raped when he got tired of it and sold it. I also don't like the attention you get driving a car like that (Maseratis were introduced in Canada in 2005 so it was a very rare and exotic car).

A good friend of mine went through an F430 and a Maranello recently and left $150k on the table by the time he got out of them. His cars were also at the shop constantly. We share a passion for German cars and specifically Porsches but like me, got bitten by the Italian bug too. He will never buy an Italian car again either.

Bottom line, I have no interest in buying any car that requires me to constantly bend over or that attracts so much attention. The only cars I have interest in are Porsches and Audis.

I have to say there is a difference between something that premieres in European Car magazine and is considered more exotic than a Dodge. No offense but I think the general audience def has more interest in the cars from Europe. (Just my $.02)

ALOT People also commented on the kid that was asking for free stuff for his brand new A4 a few months ago, but that does not mean it wasn't stupid.

I appreciate the cars, but just don't see the sense of posting pics of "other" peoples cars even if they were your dads!

I was sitting next to a brand new Bentley Continental this morning. Should I have taken a pic and posted it.

Like I said, I am not hating..... Just don't see any sense in the thread!

Cheers
