Maserati - GT





I’m very glad to publish a post on a car which takes place in my template. At the 2007 Geneva Motor Show, Maserati had unveiled a replacement for the current Maserati Coupe/Spider. The GT will go on sale in early 2008 at an estimated price of $110.000. Maserati is considering the new GT a competitor for the Porsche’s latest 911 models and Mercedes SL.
The initial model will be a classic coupe but featuring the same rear seats from the 612 Scaglietti. Later, in 2009, a Spyder version it is also expected that will be a coupe-cabriolet with folding hardtop and only two seats.
The Maserati GT is designed by the Italian design house Pininfarina and will be a mixture of modern and classic Maserati. The chief designer is the man behind the 599 GTB and P4/5, Jason Castriota.
The GT’s engine is based on the Ferrari’s 4.2-liter V-8, the same used in Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione. The engine range will include a 4.3 liter V8, a 5.0 liter V8 engine producing 470 bhp (a bored-up 4.2). Also a V6 Biturbo (approx. 400 bhp) based on the new V6 of the Alfa Romeo 159 is being considered. The Spyder version will be offered with a 5.0 liter V8 engine. The 0 to 60 mph will be made in 4.2 seconds and will have a top speed of 192 mph.
Thus, I think this post will be help full for you to know about Maserati GT. Don’t go anywhere, update has begun…
