MUST READ! If you are in the market for a Maserati Quattroporte you must read this first! OK, first of all congrats on choosing a Quattroporte! It’s basically a 4 door Ferrari once $100k, now down to less than the cost of a Toyota Prius! Its a beautiful car, it’s a fun car to drive, it’s reliable and it’s affordable and will turn heads EVERYWHERE you go! Most of all its FAST and sounds amazing, not to mention gets GREAT gas mileage. Color combo is gorgeous, Black with Cream leather interior! But before you shop for the best deal, let me educate you on the model so you know what to look for... ALL, ALL, ALL Quattroporte’s after 50k miles will be half way through their life and need a few things for their next 5 to 10 years of life. Don’t trust that people have done repairs unless they can show you a receipt and at what miles they did it at!!! Just saying it has a new clutch, may not mean it does... 1. You will need a CLUTCH! This car was designed with the Ferrari F430 F1 paddle shift manual transmission. It is fun to drive and was built to be driven in manual, however many people drive in auto mode which will wear a clutch faster. A new clutch job will cost you $8,000 and last you about 5+ years or more. Mine has a brand new clutch and throw out bearing and I have receipts!!! 2. The F1 clutch relay will cause issues as it heats. A new relay does not solve this. I have the upgraded relay already installed with NO shift errors!! This is a $500 job. 3. You will need an Alternator and new battery! This car has over 17 computers. It puts a lot of strain on the alternator and battery. The alternator job is $2,000 and a battery is $300. Mine has a brand new Alternator, new belts, new gaskets and a brand new battery in warranty!!! I also keep it on a trickle charger to maintain it. 4. You will have ABS issues. A mechanic will think it is a wheel bearing or speed sensor and charge you for new ones. This is NOT the issue. The Quattroporte has a bad ABS module, it needs to be sent out and upgraded, not replaced. This will cost you over $4,000. Mine has a new upgraded ABS module and speed sensors and wheel bearings!!! 5. ALL late model Quattroporte’s will need the ENGINE mounts replaced. They are often overlooked. When not replaced they sag and the engine rides on the frame causing major vibration. This is a $2,000 job and I have brand new engine mounts! 6. ALL Quattroporte’s with the small gear selector in the center console which looks like a tiny shift knob to choose forward or reverse will BREAK! Maserati made them from plastic. This will cost you $1,000 to replace. Mine has already been replaced with the Ricambi upgraded ALL metal model! Will NOT break ever again! 7. ALL Quattroporte have a PCV valve designed to take excess oil and release it back through the air intake to burn off. MANY if not all Quattroporte owners will complain of white smoke upon cold start up, or white smoke from hard driving. This is embarrassing at a valet and the dealer will tell you it’s normal. Well there is a fix. Mine has been installed with a custom oil catch, this brushed steel reservoir has been installed between the PCV valve and air intake to catch the oil before it gets sucked back into the air intake. NO MORE WHITE SMOKE. Better yet, this increases performance as air and fuel burn better then air, fuel and oil! Keeps your engine running cleaner and you can read online about the many more benefits it offers. 8. When I installed the custom oil catch it was a good time to replace the air filter, mass airflow sensor, spark plugs, clean air intake and replace engine oil. This is a $1,500 service and ready for you to enjoy! 9. Variators. Many models needed their variators rebuilt. This is a $5,000 job that the prior owner did. Upon start up you will hear NO sounds of metal clinking or chattering which is a sign it would need it. 10. HEAT and AC! This is a big one. Many dash mod door actuators will go out causing hot out one side, cold out another, mild cool AC or worse all heat. I have had all AC sealed, heater resistor replaced, mod door actuators replaced. ALL heat and AC works perfect, blows ice cold and out the correct doors. This was a $5,000 repair! 11. Among all this. I have new trunk shocks, new tires, new brakes, new belts, new gaskets, new window regulators, new door handle actuators, new thermostats, etc. This car NEEDS NOTHING! 12. Paint, body and leather... When buying any used car. It can be sad to have to live with swirl marks, scratches, dents, chips, door dings and worn dirty leather. Makes buying a new car feel like not such a new car for you... Well many used cars are just washed before you buy. Mine has been BEYOND well taken care of. Let me explain. 1st, I am a fanatic about black cars. I have 5 black cars. I have color sanded and buffed this car twice. Once right when I bought it to give it that perfect shine and, once again about a year ago. There is NOT a single door ding nor dent. There are NO swirl marks. NO scratches. This paint looks like a glass mirror and I just had a $500 detail done to sell the car in amazing condition. Now let’s talk about the leather. Most light colored leather on a used car is pretty worn out and dirty. When I bought this car I had ALL leather re-dyed and conditioned to look BRAND NEW. I then had my detailer care for it with PH balanced products and after the $500 detail I just had done, they shampooed the leather, carpets and treated it all. You will get in and think that no one has ever been inside this car. As it still looks like new! I even had my detailer wrap the driver’s floor mat in plastic for you! In fact, the entire car is covered with a car cover and in my garage and after spending $500 on a detail, I won’t be driving it so it will be perfectly clean for the buyer. 13. Amenities. Of course all luxury cars come with all the bells and whistles. Mine has a few options you will not see many others have. First it does have the front navigation, CD changer, stereo. but I also added Bluetooth for hands free speaker phone and music from your phone to the stereo. In the rear, is the FACTORY DVD TV media system that will play a MOVIE on both the FRONT nav and REAR TVs with amazing sound through the system. You can also plug in a headset and control it all with a factory Alpine remote control which is included. Also this is the model with ALL FOUR front and rear seats that heat, cool, recline and MASSAGE. Rear and side window sun-shades and lastly, the center console offers HOT or COLD options for your drinks! On top of all that I have black and chrome Asanti 20 rims with brand new tires (TPS monitors installed, need programming) and factory Maserati aluminum racing pedals that make this car look amazing. I am also including the original manual, stereo guide with unlock code, two factory keys and the ENTIRE 10 disc DVD set for the navigation system! Now after all that please dont think this car is too expensive to maintain. I have done it all for you! These are the NORMAL things that go out for this model, and these are all the things that have ALREADY been replaced. You’re all set and ready to enjoy your Maserati!!! Last tip. DONT BUY FROM A STEALERSHIP. They have NO past knowledge of the car they are selling you. You will NEVER know who owned it and how well they took care of it. You will be buying a mystery that can be an expensive mistake. Can you go out and find a $20,000 Quattroporte at a better deal, yes. But do you really then want to spend over $20,000+ getting it to the condition of mine? Or would you rather spend slightly more and buy mine which gives you piece of mind and an amazing Italian dream car for the money... Now if a cash buy is not in your budget, even though I am not a dealer, I do have many finance companies I can refer you to, just like any dealer would to get you financed. I even know of one with 2% interest and $0 down.

Maserati slashes prices for 2020, adds Edizione Ribelle special editions

Tue, Jan 21 2020

Maserati is slashing prices for the Ghibli, Levante and Quattroporte for the 2020 model year. To which we say, huzzah! Cars almost never get cheaper, but when sales are as abysmal as Maserati sales have been, drastic changes must be made. The Italian car company only sold about 11,000 vehicles total in 2019, coming in even lower than 2018 overall sales numbers. In an effort to turn it around, the 2020 Ghibli is now $5,990 cheaper than the 2019 model. The Levante is $3,990 cheaper than before, and the Quattroporte is $8,490 less. With destination included, the new 2020 base prices are as follows: Ghibli: $70,985 Levante: $74,485 Quattroporte: $101,485 Basically, buy a 2020, not a 2019. Or at least start your pricing negotiations with the 2020 price. There’s more than just pricing news from Maserati today, though. We also got to see some new Edizione Ribelle special editions. All of the aforementioned models are available in this spec, but numbers are limited. WeÂ’ll get 100 Levantes, 100 Ghiblis and 25 Quattroportes total. All of them are based off the “S” trim, so theyÂ’re fairly well-equipped models. YouÂ’ll be able to tell them apart by the Nero Ribelle paintwork, black chrome trim throughout the exterior and 20-inch wheels framing red brake calipers. The inside will be covered in black and red leather thatÂ’s only available with this special edition car. There will be extra carbon fiber trim on various surfaces and a Harman Kardon audio system. Pricing for the Edizione Ribelle models is much higher than the base cars. The Ghibli is $93,285; the Levante is $98,485, and the Quattroporte costs $120,985. Those limited-production cars will be hitting dealer lots in March this year. 2020 Maserati GT Sport editions View 3 Photos The last scrap of news coming from Maserati today is the introduction of a GT Sport package. This package consists of a few extras to make the respective Maserati look a bit more aggressive. It applies a GranSport-unique front and rear fascia design, new wheels and your choice between black, red or blue brake calipers. Inside, it features high gloss piano black wood. Just like the Edizione Ribelle, thee GT Sport package will be available come March of this year.

Maserati Levante SUV may be built in Italy after all

Thu, 05 Sep 2013

In July Fiat halted its investments in Italy, putting on hold plans for the Maserati Levante SUV to be built at the automaker's flagship factory in Turin. But Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, whose company owns Maserati, met with unions on Wednesday, and he may announce plans to move forward with production of the SUV at the Mirafiori factory if the CEO and the unions reach an agreement, Bloomberg reports.
Marchionne is reportedly about ready to build new cars at Fiat's largest and oldest factory, on the grounds that 5,300 workers accept extended temporary layoffs through most of next year in a slowing European auto market. If unions don't accept the deal, it's not clear whether Fiat would still consider building the Levante at Mirafiori or not.
The Levante, Maserati's first SUV, is based on the Jeep Grand Cherokee platform, and we reported two years ago that it would be built in Detroit next to its Jeep cousin. Obviously those plans have been altered considerably in the intervening period of time.

Maserati cutting Ghibli, Quattroporte production on slowing demand

Wed, Mar 18 2015

If Maserati is going to meet its ambitious sale targets, it's going to need to grow as fast as its cars can accelerate. But lately, the Trident marque has seen demand for its luxury sedans flattening, if not receding. And now Maserati has had to cut production to avoid overshooting demand. We've been seeing reports of production being trimmed at the company's Grugliasco plant near Turin, Italy, for over a month now. But while earlier reports seemed to indicate the trouble was rooted in supplier issues, the latest suggests that slowing demand is the culprit. According to Automotive News Europe, parent company Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has had to cut the number of shifts at Grugliasco (where the Ghibli and Quattroporte are produced) from 12 per week to 10. "Fiat has told us that workers at the Grugliasco plant will be working for three weeks out of four up until July," union leader Federico Bellono told ANE. "The company is predicting production of about 30,000 to 35,000 cars at Grugliasco this year. I think it will be closer to 30,000." Last year the plant produced 34,000 units, with the sedans accounting for the bulk of Maserati's sales. Of the 36,448 units the Modena-based automaker sold last year, 23,500 were Ghiblis and 9,500 were Quattroportes, with the GranTurismo accounting for just 3,500 units. That's up considerably from the total of 15,400 units it sold in 2013, but is still some ways off from the 50,000 it hopes to reach this year and the 75,000 it aims to achieve by 2018. The arrival of the upcoming Levante crossover, as well as the Alfieri sports car and new GranTurismo, will surely help. But if Maserati is going to reach its ambitious sales targets, it's going to have to find more buyers for its core sedans. Repeated requests made by Autoblog for comment from Maserati have yet to be answered, but we'll be sure to update you if and when relevant new information comes to light. Related Video:
