No reserve 2006 Maserati Quattroporte Executive GT + many upgrades

I am selling my baby, I have owned this car for 3.5 years and still love every time I get behind the wheel.  I am not a high end used car dealer trying to make a buck, I am an individual who is passionate about his cars.  I am selling to get another Maserati.  The pictures tell the story of the meticulously maintained vehicle.   This car has never been driven in the rain or snow and has never been through a commercial car wash. Hand washed only! Consequently no swirl marks, anyone who has had a black car can appreciate.  This car has all of the luxury of the executive GT model, heated/ventilated/massage seats, power rear seats, power window shade…..ect, but with performance upgrades that outperforms the Sport GT. (More HP, Faster shifts, Louder exhaust than the sport GT)

This car will have more miles than is shown here as I still drive this vehicle 3-4 days/week.

 

-Brand new clutch

-All 30K and 50K services performed by certified dealer

-All oil changes by certified dealer

-Tires - Bridgestone Potenza RE-11 (substantially outperforms the OEM Pirellis)  

 

UPGRADES:

$8k invested in performance upgrades puts this QTP near 500 HP

·        High Flow air filter - $200

·        High Power ECM Performance Chip - $2000 

·        Drive by wire enhancement module - $1300 (this is a must for this car, not only improves the shifting speeds dramatically but extends the clutch life, this car got 50,000 miles on the original clutch. Most of these cars get 15-20K per clutch)

·        Larini Exhaust system

-         Mufflers - $3500

-         X-Pipe - $850

-         The OEM exhaust is very restrictive and quiet, the only way to appreciate the sound on this car is watch the video and listen… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IrF7CqeUE8&feature=youtu.be

 

$4,300 invested in a professionally installed upgraded electronics to make this Maserati have all of the features that new vehicles have:

Kenwood unit that controls and connects to the factory audio system that features

·        Bluetooth phone connectivity

·        I-pod connection

·        Garmin navigation (original OEM navigation is completely useless)

·        Satellite radio

·        Head unit with touch screen and run through the OEM sound system

·        DVD player

 

This car is titled as a lemon law car.  The First owner turned in the car at 23K miles after and three years on the lemon law for an electronic issue.(waited three years ?????)  Most of the electrical system was replaced and I purchased the car.  I have never had any issues with the car, again I am purchasing another Maserati, if I had problems I wouldn’t be interested in another Maserati.  I am also selling this vehicle locally and may end the auction early if sold prior to the end of the auction.

Maserati returns to Indianapolis to commemorate historic win

Tue, 27 May 2014

This past weekend was Memorial Day weekend, folks, and you know what that means: racing. There was the Monaco Grand Prix for Formula One fans, and back Stateside there was the Indianapolis 500. You might expect to see a name like Maserati pop up at the former more than the latter, but that wasn't always the case.
These days its all about Dallara chassis powered by Chevy or Honda, but over the course of a century there have been plenty of foreign automakers that have won the Greatest Spectacle in Racing. McLaren won it twice in the 1970s, Mercedes and Peugoet won during the race's pre-WWI infancy, and in between them Boyle Racing won it two years in a row with a Maserati chassis and engine.
The car was the Maserati 8CTF "Boyle Special," and its first win came 75 years ago. So to mark the occasion (as well as Maserati's 100th anniversary), the car was brought back to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for a revival lap. Unfortunately Wilbur Shaw, who won the Indy 500 three times (twice in the Maserati) and went on to be president of the speedway, died in a plane crash the day before his 52nd birthday in 1954. So in his place fellow three-time winner Johnny Rutherford took the wheel of the 8CTF in front of the gathered crowds.

Maserati confirms limited edition Quattroporte Zegna for production

Thu, Jul 17 2014

Last year two of the biggest names in Italian style – one from the automotive industry and one from fashion – announced a partnership. Together Maserati and Ermenegildo Zegna revealed a "concept" version of the Quattroporte at the Frankfurt Motor Show, only given how production-ready the show car already looked, nobody really believed it would remain just a concept. And now, having revealed the final version in Geneva, Maserati has confirmed it for production. Limited production, that is, because Maserati will only build 100 examples of the Quattroporte Zegna edition for consumption around the world. That's about one-thirtieth of the number of cars Maserati produces each month at this point, and while the Modenese automaker doesn't break down its sales figures by model, the QP accounts for a large proportion of those numbers. Maserati also hasn't said just how much it will charge for the Zegna edition, but you can bet it'll be a handsome premium – more than some of those designer-edition hatchbacks get at any rate – yet it'll undoubtedly offload the entire run in short order. "ONE OF 100" THE MASERATI QUATTROPORTE ZEGNA LIMITED EDITION Wednesday, July 16, 2014 – After making its world debut at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, Maserati has revealed an exclusive limited edition Maserati Quattroporte in collaboration with luxury Italian fashion house, Ermenegildo Zegna. Just 100 examples of the limited series will be built which feature colour schemes, materials and exclusive trims which link the histories of the two brands. To celebrate the launch of the Quattroporte Zegna Limited Edition, Maserati and Zegna are embarking on a tour of four international events starting in Shanghai in July 2014 before stopping in New York (Sept 2014), Dubai (Feb 2015) and Milan (Spring 2015). The events are designed to present the Quattroporte Zegna Limited Edition to an exclusive audience and to celebrate the partnership between the two Italian brands; both of whom are masters in Italian excellence. The exclusive event locations have been carefully selected to enhance the uniqueness of the alliance and represent the pinnacle of Italian elegance. Guests will be able to discover the car's premium finishes in detail and see the extraordinary result of the partnership. World famous Italian photographer, Fabrizio Ferri, will be in attendance at each of the four events capturing 100 unique images – 25 from each occasion.

Maserati GranTurismo Folgore design and key specifications revealed

Sun, Sep 4 2022

The next-generation Maserati GranTurismo will spawn an electric, Folgore-badged variant with over 1,200 horsepower. While the coupe hasn't been fully unveiled yet, the Italian company published a video that shows it without camouflage and reveals key specifications. Shot on California's picturesque roads, the five-minute film provides a better look at the second-generation GranTurismo's shapely design. It's characterized by a long hood, a fastback-like roof line, and a relatively short trunk, while its front end borrows a handful of styling cues inaugurated by the MC20 and also seen on the Grecale. The model is instantly recognizable as a member of the Maserati portfolio. We already know that the first series-produced electric Maserati will ship with a three-motor drivetrain rated at about 1,200 horsepower. Design boss Klaus Busse (who is behind the wheel in the video) announced that the GranTurismo Folgore takes 2.6 seconds to reach 60 mph from a stop and reaches a top speed of over 200 mph. He added that the battery pack is housed in the transmission tunnel, a solution which allowed his team to give the car a relatively low profile, but details such as the unit's size and the driving range remain under wraps. Not interested in EVs? Maserati has you covered: it will position the Folgore at the top of the GranTurismo range but it will also offer at least one V6-powered version of the car. We're guessing that the engine will be related to the excellent 3.0-liter Nettuno V6 that powers the MC20. Maserati will release more details about the GranTurismo Folgore in the coming months, and the coupe's unveiling is scheduled for 2023. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.
