I just bought a 2015 Maserati GranTurismo. And here's my thoughts and review of the car. Maserati Granturismo's reliability, acceleration, sound, interior, exterior, engine, etc.
Petrol cap / gas cap has a manual pull cord back up in boot behind a small flap. Likewise boot has a manual release under the LH side ( facing forward) of rear seats.
Not a Super Car. Not even a Sports car. The name gives it away: its a helluva grand tourer! And yes, it has the best sounding exhaust ever! I currently also own a McLaren 570 and a Bentley Continental GT, which is a better GT, faster and more reliable than my Maserati. BUT...I drive my GranTurismo for the noise and linear thrust. I added a Pedal Commander for crisper throttle response and it has added a bit of snappiness and drama to my other wise stock queen. Maintenance and repairs are a bit pricey on the Maserati. My 2012 4.7 has cost me about 6K in repairs (leaking heads and A/C repair) and maintenance/oil changes over rhe last 3+ years. But at 75K miles, she is driven a lot, driven hard and driven often, despite my owning actual super cars. Good review, BTW.
It's a gorgeous car, but if you ever need work done on it, good luck getting someone to do it. And if they do work on it, they're going to have a lot of fun with you.
I know that 2008's - 2012's have a cam variator issue that needs to be addressed, but if you know that's not a problem, could be worth it! Also see if it has a leaky valve cover gasket. I'd just do a PPI and if it's good condition good priced, then SEND IT
Mine cost $6000 with lots of issues. Almost all done now and as I did it all myself, now it has cost $13k including buying. Not cheap, but hey it is worth $16-18k. Obviously I am far from rich… I only have good set of clothes and mostly cut my own hair…
this is reality man. I know this might sound mindblowing, but 'cheap' is a subjective term that varies person to person. I think a lot of you are searching for someone financially relatable to watch and you won't find that in every youtuber.
