Maserati GranTurismo MC Sport Line
The new Maserati GranTurismo has earned high acclaim for its stunning styling however has often been criticised for its lack of performance and aggression.
In response, Maserati has premiered its new GranTurismo MC Sport Line at the Bologna Motor Show, delivering the intimidating presence which the GranTurismo S deserves.
The MC Sports Line futures front and rear carbon-fibre spoilers, which boast real-world performance ability through tests conducted on the GranTurismo MC Corse Concept.
Carbon fibre accents extend to the door handles and side mirrors, offset by glossy black seven-spoke 20-inch wheels.
Inside, the door sills greet passengers with the words “MC Sport Line”, with the carbon fibre highlights extending to the door panels, dashboard, central tunnel, steering wheel and shift paddles.
The whole car sits 10mm closer to the road as the suspension has been stiffened with new springs, shock absorbers and anti-roll bars, synchronised with specific Maserati Stability Programme software.
All features presented on the MC Sport Line are available as part of the Maserati customisation package, following the indications of Maserati designers; or individually, to cater for the personal tastes of each customer.

Great pininfarina design ruined by the spoiler though, and the front end is not special enough!

The original looks so much better. I you want something hotter, buy a different car.

I agree Alex. That spoiler makes it look like a crappy HSV. Stick-on go fast bits rarely make any car look better and this is no exception.

How does this increase performance? I would expect a new engine fore that.

Further proof that Aston Martin still make the S-E-X-iest performance coupes in the world.
As it appears everyone is copying them in some form or an other particularly in relation to the grille taillights headlights etc… this is obviously Maseratis half a–ed attempt… Close but no cigar!

Um, Wheelnut, the grill is a completely different shape and it sits on the car very differently, the headlights and tail lights are also a completely different shape to any Aston Martin. This is hardly a “half a-ed attempt” as it is beautiful but looks a lot meaner than any Aston Martin. It looks like a Maserati and it’s one of the best looking cars on the market today.

Wheelnut, I seriously don’t think this car is anything like an Aston design, so how it qualifies as a half arsed attempt is beyond me. More importantly, I’d take one of these over two Astons.

Alex - Would you rather I have said it looks more like a RX-8? because the more I look at it; I can see quite a number similarities with the Mazda too.
I mean look at the tail lights for instance; they look so much like the ones on the new Jaguar coupe its not funny and where did Jaguar get its inspiration…? Aston Martin.

Sorry wheelnut, but you are WHEELLLY A NUT…AM better than this? What drugs are you on…I guarantee you if an aston was driving down the road you would get a fair few stares and people would say their is an aston, but if a Granturismo was roaring down the streets (as the sound of it is INSANE) people would say WHAT THE FARK IS THAT….Totally unique car..
If i was given ANY Aston ANY…I would put it on a trailer go straight 2 Maserati and pick a Black Maza GT S MC Sport line.
