The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Like new with only 1242 miles. No defects, no damage, no scratches and absolutely no wear and tear. This vehicle is a mint as it was the day it drove off the lot. It has been kept in a heated garage in Canada and not really driven at all. As new as any vehicle you will find in a Maserati showroom including the new car smell."

This listing is for a one owner 2008 Maserati GranTurismo.  Vehicle has been stored in a heated garage and barely driven since originally purchased in December 2008.  All original paperwork, manuals and keys included with this listing.  That includes the original bill of sale showing the list price at $153,240 (that's Canadian Dollars).  Odometer reads only 1949km which equals only 1242 miles.  You are reading that correct, this mint condition car has less miles than some 2013 being sold at dealer lots.  The grey absolutely gleams through the windows with the red leather interior and is accented by red rosso brake callipers.  Also upgraded with 20" birdcage wheels and a wood/leather wrapped steering wheel.  Enjoy the full automatic transmission or switch to sport mode and use the wheel mounted paddle shifters. 

You will not find another opportunity to buy a virtually new vehicle with such low kilometers.  I am not sure that many or any others exist as it would seem near impossible to stare at such a engineering marvel for 4 years without driving it.  There are no surprises here - dealer and history reports confirm this vehicle really is a rare opportunity to own a brand new 2008 Maserati GranTurismo that is simply "untouched".

This vehicle has just been listed locally as well as regionally in Canada.  While I am open to offers, please understand that I am in no way desperate to sell this vehicle.  It remains safely stored and I reserve to right to end this listing at anytime unless the buy it now price has been paid.   Let me know if you have any questions.  I can send other photos as well but you will not find a single flaw anywhere on this vehicle.

Former BMW M boss and Maserati CEO killed in freak motorcycle accident

Mon, 19 Aug 2013

It's a tragic coincidence that on the same weekend the BMW M4 Coupe Concept was introduced in Monterey, one of the men most integral to BMW's M and Motorsports divisions, Karl-Heinz Kalbfell, was killed in England. Kalbfell, a vintage motorcycle enthusiast, was set to compete in the Lansdowne Classic Series at Brands Hatch and had an accident during a practice session. After going wide at Druids Corner and falling, he was hit by a competitor following close behind and died of his injuries after being transported to hospital.
Kalbfell, an engineer, began his career at BMW in 1977 in the communications department; a decade later he was chairman of BMW M GmbH, overseeing development of some of the cars responsible for the myth of M. In 1994 he was named chairman of BMW Motorsport, and his cap full of feathers includes getting the BMW V12 into the McLaren F1, getting the BMW V8 into two Morgan cars, along with developing BMW's Formula One engine and return to the sport. Not incidentally, he also assumed leadership of Project Rolls-Royce after BMW bought the British marque in 1998, which means he oversaw the Goodwood factory upfit and the creation of the Phantom.
He left Rolls-Royce for a brief stint at Fiat, heading Alfa Romeo and Maserati, then went into consulting for clients like Lotus and Paragon, who built the Artega GT. As Autocar notes, Kalbfell "had an abiding sense that customers needed to be attracted to cars by their aura and reputation, not just their engineering." He will be missed.

Maserati looking to book 13,000 sales of new Quattroporte in 2013

Mon, 10 Dec 2012

Europe's continuing financial woe is forcing automakers to get creative, and while Fiat may be scaling back its volume vehicles, it's looking to ramp up production of the exclusive Maserati brand. Following the debut of a new Quattroporte sedan, Fiat wants to boost Maserati sales to 50,000 vehicles by 2015. Maserati may lose as much as €7 million ($9.05 million) this year, and Fiat is betting big on Chrysler platforms and dealers to turn that around.
Currently regarded as a low-volume boutique carmaker, Maserati sold just 6,159 units last year, and 4,700 units through three quarters of this year. For 2013, Fiat boss Sergio Marchionne is targeting 13,000 in sales of the redesigned Quattroporte alone. Fiat apparently wants the brand's low volume image to change, hoping to position it closer to BMW and Porsche in the market.
The recent unveiling of the new Quattroporte will be followed by more new vehicle launches, including a crossover utility called Levante, and a long-promised sub-Quattroporte sedan, called Ghibli. The latter will share certain components with the Chrysler 300 sedan in an effort to optimize production costs. The Ghibli will be positioned to take on the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class. It's all in an effort to turn the profit tide for Maserati and its parent company Fiat amidst European economic turmoil.
