It's very difficult to describe this car adequately! It has many personalities. You can drive it easily and shift at low revs and haul your mother around and all she thinks is "What an absolutely lovely car! I wish I was 15 years younger, I'd buy it" She's 91. On another hand you can load it up with your gear head friends and dial it up while in sport mode and just blow their minds. This is an extremely capable (big) sports car. Just not much else even comes close. Personally I prefer to go it alone and just get lost in the drive. And what a drive------!! This car started life in California I'm told (it does have just the California Navigation disc) and then found it's way to North Carolina. I brought it to Ohio, but it has not seen any severe winter conditions. No salt corrosion. Car was fully serviced in July at a Maserati dealer (I have receipts): fluids changed, new brakes pads, rear tie rods (recall campaign). Previous owner stated the dealer she bought the car from had installed new tires just a few thousand miles ago. Tires, Pirelli P Zero's, do appear as new. New license plate bracket installed. Car runs and drives fabulously. Smells like new. Sounds fantastic when pressed! Car has more features than I can remember, but those interested probably have done their homework---any specific questions I can address. The exterior has just a flew nicks from stones or such (58000 miles) but the paint is just amazing. I have never seen factory paint done so well, as perfect as it gets. One door ding not easily seen. The interior shows minimal wear. There is one small mark on the driver's seat bottom, a little discoloration, very minor. Actually these photos were taken before I cleaned the seats, nearly all discoloration wiped off readily. The wood console shows just a bit of what must be sun damage to the clear finish on the top edge. Again, very minor. All in all a very well kept environment. I would guess this car has always been garaged. A few of the rubber buttons/ash tray have a bit of the "sticky rubber" syndrome common to these and pretty much all Italian cars. Kinda nice really for you can definitively feel those rather small buttons while driving. And there's a lot of them! This car probably has 5 times the computer capacity that NASA had in the Apollo program. I'm still learning the capabilities. I mostly just drive in rapture and love the natural music of that Ferrari derived marvel . The stereo does kick butt though if wanted. These cars must represent one of the best bangs for the buck presently. No other car to my taste has all the qualities of these. $100,000+ when new, about a quarter of that now. Good lord, this is a lot of car for not really much money. The styling, performance, utility (really) is unmatched. Thanks for looking, I encourage a personal inspection if possible.

2015 Maserati Ghibli gets the lightest of updates [w/video]
Wed, 19 Nov 2014Maserati continued its centennial celebration this week with a lightly updated version of the 2015 Ghibli at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
The sedan is enhanced with navigation and Bluetooth features, which are now standard. Reinforcing that this is a light refresh, Maserati gave the brake calipers a new finish, and contrasted stitching is also added on the Ghibli and Ghibli SQ4 models.
Maserati is also throwing in a free three-month "all-access" subscription to SiriusXM satellite radio for the Ghibli, Quattroporte and GranTurismo.
Veneno Roadster, One:1, One-77, LaFerrari, P1, Veyron headline 25-car Bonham's auction
Mon, Jun 24 2019Bonhams is holding a no-reserve auction in fall 2019 that includes some of the most valuable and sought-after supercars of the past decade. The lot of 25 beautiful collector items includes a Lamborghini Veneno Roadster, a Koenigsegg One:1, an Aston Martin One-77, a Ferrari LaFerrari, a McLaren P1, and a Bugatti Veyron. The collection, which was seized from a corrupt politician from Equatorial Guinea, is valued at roughly $13 million. If selling off future classics that are still in their infancy as collector items seems strange, it's because this is not a straightforward situation. These cars will be sold off by the State of Geneva, not a person. The collection was previously owned by the vice president of Equatorial Guinea, Teodoro Obiang, but the cars were seized when he was placed under investigation for money laundering and unfair management of public interests. These 25 cars, which were located in Geneva, were first sequestered in fall 2016. A trial court ordered them sold off, and the money earned from the sales would be invested in social programs that benefit Equatorial Guinea. And so, Equatorial Guinea is about to see an influx of cash, as every vehicle is valued in the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of dollars. The rarest might be the Koenigsegg One:1. One of only six remaining, it has 371 miles on the dial, and is valued at roughly $1.8 million. The Lamborghini Veneno Roadster, one of nine in the world, is a close second. It has 202 miles logged, and is valued at about $5.1 million. The Aston Martin One-77 is another rare bird. It is example No. 35 of 77, holds a 7.3-liter V12 engine, and is valued at about $1.4 million. A McLaren P1, Ferrari LaFerrari, and Bugatti Veyron 16.4 round out the top of the list. The remaining cars are not fully detailed, but they include examples from Mercedes-Maybach, Bentley, Maserati and Porsche. The auction will take place on Sunday, Sept. 29, at the Bonmont Golf & Country Club near Lake Geneva. For more photos and information, visit Bonhams.
Maserati Ghibli overtakes Levante, headed for Shanghai?
Wed, 13 Feb 2013While earlier reports indicated that the next Maserati product out of the gate would be the Levante SUV, Motor Trend is now reporting that the Audi A7-shaped Ghibli has cut in line. Word is that we may see the new Ghibli as early as the Shanghai Motor Show in April.
Citing unnamed sources, MT predicts that the minds at Maserati now see a more pressing need to fight off the likes of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and the BMW 5 Series than to go after luxury utes. However, if our spy shots of Ghibli prototypes are anything to go on, it's also likely that the sub-Quattroporte Maser won't be a traditional sedan. The car above's long nose, low roof and brief, sloping rear deck all bring to mind Audi's lovely A7, Meaning the Ghibli may fall into the always murky four-door-coupe/luxury hatchback genre.
Bi-turbocharged iterations of both a V6 and a V8 should make up the early powertrain choices for the Maserati, meaning the top-spec Ghibli should have loads of shove to match its promised good looks.
