Why do you take the Sport GT over the standard Maserati, Merc1? I've seen your dream garage and you stated a Sport GT.

I just like the extra styling features of the Sport GT and the of course the added performance that everyone raves about.

I like the styling extras of the Sport GT too Merc1... But I'd thrash that carbon fibre trim for conventional wood.

My dad is having a dilemma choosing between the standard QP and the Sport GT... Stiffer suspension in sport mode, a deeper exhaust plus a revised gearbox doesn't really justify the huge premium, I think. Any thoughts about this?

Well I haven't drive this fabulous car so I'm limited, but I guess it all boils down to what he wants. The Sport GT I'd imagine has a pretty stiff ride with that wheel/tire combo so how it rides on regular roads would be important because the regular Q might be sporty enough? The revised gearbox might be important too because in auto model I've heard nothing but complaints about Duo Select.

Seems like a new Maerati GT will be inspired by older classic Maseratis:
