2006 Maserati Gransport Coupe 4.2l, Blue/black. Every Service Complete. Stunning on 2040-cars
Scottsdale, Arizona, United States
This Maserati Gransport has a 400 horsepower Ferrari-based 4.2 liter V8 engine that looks, sounds, and feels amazing. The engine revs so quick, it just begs you to merge onto the highway open it up! The transmission in this car is equally impressive with technology that is very similar to Formula-1 race cars. It has steering wheel mounted paddle shifters that can make gear changes in a fraction of a second or you can put it in full automatic mode and just enjoy the drive at a leisurely pace. This Maserati is in phenomenal shape inside and out. The paint and body are nearly flawless and the interior is exceptionally clean. The seats are very comfortable GranSport bucket seats that have nice side bolsters and they are power adjustable in every way. Everything works flawlessly. I keep this in my private jet hanger in Scottsdale, Arizona when it is not driven, and it is available to see at almost any time. The engine, which is related to the 4.3-liter V-8 in the upcoming Ferrari F430, is "blueprinted"-built with selected components to finer tolerances than the standard Maserati-and has a different exhaust system and inlet manifolds. And taking a cue from Ferrari, the exhaust system has a pneumatic valve to reduce back pressure and make a gloriously rich sound when the "sport" button is pressed.
My Maserati was a theft recovery from the insurance company. Many states unfortunately require that the title is changed to a salvage title after a theft recovery. Maserati was a theft recovery. Many states unfortunately require that the title is changed to a salvage title after a theft recovery. I have a Maserati dealer pre-purchase vehicle inspection report showing every quality aspect of the car, the maintenance and the absolute clarity that this car was never wrecked. Zero frame damage, no body panels were replaced. This has now been issued a reconstructed title in Arizona. The Arizona Department of Motor Vehicles performed a complete inspection in compliance with the Arizona Department of Transportation to prove that this vehicle is roadworthy in the same manner as it was originally built at the factory.
KBB value of this vehicle is $46,383. NADA is $52,200. This is priced to sell. Robb Report reviewed the GranSport in February 2006 in their Car of the Year competition: A fierce but distinguished daily driver The GranSport is a refinement of Maserati’s Coupe Cambiocorsa, with extra power, tighter suspension, aggressive but tasteful bodywork, and interior options that set this sports GT apart from every other car in its class. The update of Italdesign-Giugiaros original form appears handsome and purposeful The GranSports considerable power derives from a delicious, high-revving V-8 The sound throughout the rev range is worth the price of admission especially when the car is in Sport mode, when freer-flowing exhaust and quicker shift mapping add layers to the motors music. One would not be insane to buy this vehicle for the exhaust note alone The best electronic gearbox on the market apart from the Ferrari 612, this may be the only GT in which four adults can travel in comfort, which places it high on the daily-driver list. The Maserati also will appeal more to the performance-oriented driver who wants a less flashy exterior, a superior fit and finish, and a race-derived drivetrain.

Fiat Chrysler's next-generation Uconnect is faster, built on Android
Mon, Jan 27 2020If you're a regular reader of Autoblog, you know that for a long time we've liked Fiat Chrysler's Uconnect infotainment system for its bright, clear, responsive touchscreen interface. Now, according to the company, it will be better than ever with Uconnect 5, the latest iteration of the system. It has upgraded hardware and a revamped graphic user interface (the stuff on the screen). Looking at sample screens shown above, there are characteristics shared with the old system, such as the time, status and shortcuts at the top and the menu icons at the bottom. In the middle, the major change is the addition of home screens that can be customized with favorite menus and readouts that are always available. Each of these home screens can have up to four functions and you can have five pages to flip through. The graphics themselves feature more legible fonts and updated icons. Each car brand will get its own set of icons, colors and textures to help create unique experiences. And while each Fiat Chrysler product will be able to have Uconnect, including Alfa Romeo that has until now lacked Uconnect, each brand has the ability to make small tweaks including the screen orientation. The system will support displays in landscape, portrait or square, so different brands may choose different shapes. Powering Uconnect 5 is a processor Fiat Chrysler says is six times more powerful than what's in current systems. It features 6 gigabytes of RAM and 64 gigabytes of internal storage. The processor also supports screens as large as 12.3 inches with as many as 15 million pixels, or nearly twice that of a 4K resolution TV. The system can display information on up to four screens, too. Uconnect 5's firmware is built on Google's Android operating system, joining a few other automakers in using Android as a base for their infotainment systems. Uconnect 5 brings with it a number of new features. It brings full Alexa integration, so you can use it just like you do at home, provided you have a data plan for the car. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto continue to be standard, but now they can be used wirelessly. You can also now connect two phones via Bluetooth wirelessly so you can access content from both. Navigation gets real time information and updates from TomTom. Users can create five profiles with unique climate, radio and instrument settings, plus one for a valet.
Maserati confirms mystery concept, Zegna edition QP for Geneva
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Debate ensued last week around the Autoblog offices when we first heard rumors that Maserati was bringing a new sports car concept to the Geneva Motor Show this year. Could there be any truth to the rumors? Did the timing make any sense? Does Maserati even need a two-door halo car to help it move examples of the new Ghibli, Quattroporte and upcoming Levante?
Well, we still don't have any official answer, but Maserati has indeed confirmed a new concept car to debut this week at the Swiss expo. The Modenese automaker hasn't indicated what form the concept will take, but assuming it's not doing another sedan or crossover, and unless it's planning a wagon concept like Touring's Bellagio Fastback or StudioTorino's Cinqueporte (both based on the previous Quattroporte), we feel it's more likely than not that we'll be looking at a two-door (be it a coupe, convertible or something in between).
Of course, we also don't know at this point just what size and segment Maserati is pursuing with this concept car (initial rumors had it going after the Jaguar F-Type) or for that matter whether it will presage a production version to follow or simply stand as a design study. But Maserati doesn't typically do many of the latter: the Kubang concepts of 2011 and 2003 previewed the Levante (albeit several years in advance), and the Birdcage was really more of a Pininfarina project, despite the Trident on the nose. With the exception of a couple production-based show cars (which themselves previewed production versions to follow), those are pretty much the only concepts Maserati has done in recent memory.
Alfa Romeo Giulia to get Ferrari-related engine
Fri, Jun 19 2015Alfa Romeo has a long, proud history of using V6 engines in its coupes, sedans, and sports cars over the years, but as the new Giulia sedan approaches, the Italian marque is allegedly turning to Ferrari for its next six-cylinder. This is obviously not the first time a Ferrari-sourced or derived engine has been found under an Alfa's long hood. While 8C Competizione famously used a version of Ferrari's F136 V8 during its short run, the Giulia's new V6 will be offered on a much larger scale, slotting in above an entry level, four-cylinder turbo (likely the next-gen version of the 4C sports car's 1.75-liter engine). According to Autocar, the new V6 will be "specially developed for Alfa Romeo," and will be built at the Termoli engine factory alongside the new turbo four-cylinder. As for the rest of the Giulia, Autocar has been able to shine a light on a number of other details about the new midsizer. It will, thankfully, be rear-wheel drive, and designed to counter the "mostly cold and clinical" and soulless cars of the German competition, Maserati chief Harald Wester told AC. Some of the new sedan's structural elements will even be shared with Maserati's entry level model, the Ghibli. Most notable of all, though, is what the Giulia means for American consumers. After the limited-run 8C and the niche 4C, the new sedan will lead Alfa Romeo's long-awaited, large-scale return, where it will combat the popular BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Audi A4, not to mention rivals like the Cadillac ATS and Lexus IS. Look for more on the Giulia next week when it's officially revealed in Milan.
