"These are the first images of Maserati’s new GT Coupe, revealed ahead of the car’s official debut at next month’s Geneva Motor Show. The stunning lines were penned by Italian design studio Pininfarina, clearly taking inspiration from Maserati’s larger Quattroporte sedan. A near-perfect 49/51 weight distribution combined with an upgraded 400hp 4.2L V8 motor is sure to provide scintillating performance.
The new coupe won’t be called the GT but instead picks up the extended title, GranTurismo. The first cars are expected to hit showrooms by the middle of this year, but already there are rumors of even more models. A new flagship GranSport model is said to be in the works, powered by an all-new 450hp 4.7L V8 that will be shared with Alfa Romeo’s 8C Competizione. This will be followed with the release of a new Spyder convertible as well as a possible Coupe-Convertible sporting a folding metal roof next year."

BEAUTIFUL CAR

rear light clusters has very close resemblance to the new lexus Ls460's ,..

front end is Beautifull ,,

dont like the engine ,, hoped it was getting more power ,, 400 not enough these days ;)

That looks real nice!!!! I like it alot!

Thet car is pure porn!!! I love all about it, and i hope it gets a proper manual gearbox.

its just wowwwwwww , that is just a gorgeuse car , woowww

I hate and love it at the same time! The rear end looks like sleepy and angry crack smoking gangster, and the front looks like a vacuum cleaner with that big snout. But over all... it's totally sexy!

Yay! Maserati finally made a car that looks good, no, I can't bieleve I'm gonna say this, great. Maserati has always been Ferrari's ugly ******* cousin untill now. It should handle like a dream with a weight distribution like that. It's got a beastie 400hp engine so it should be a monster around a track. This is the only Maserati that lets me honestly say it'd be a tough choice between it and a F430. Congrats to Maserati. \\:-D/

Dude, WTF, no thumbs up smilie.

the front looks like a big mouth bass, and the back looks like an emo aston martin...dont deny it. haha but even still i like it!

IMO the entire car looks Astonish but that's why it's so great.

Other than the rims...it actually doesn't look as bad as I thought it would

lol sweet, so now we've got aston martin looking like aston martin, jaguar looking like aston martin, and maserati looking like aston martin...sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. ..:smt017

If we could have another couple brands looking like ferraris and a few more looking like classic american muscle the world would be a perfect place.

Oh my god.... that car is stunning. I need one, simply put

Just wow, I have no words to express how much I enjoy looking at this thing.

oh my god damn that is sexy as helllllllll

I know i already posted about this car being hot.
I have to post again.
I can't stop staring at the car. I would take this over any 2+2 GT car in a heartbeat if it comes with a manual. But if it gets Ferrari's F1 tranny, it is ok by me.
But after awhile admiring it, i would change the wheels.....

looks good but i still like the quattroporte the most

WHOA THAT IS SO SEXXY!!
i didn't really like the old Maserati Coupe's design so I wasn't really expecting this design to be that good...but gosh...now I really want that car. I would take that over any Ferrari. I don't even need to know the specs...

It think it looks fantastic, but at the same time it kinda just looks like the designers just took the Quattroporte and the Gransport, stuck the together and tweaked it a bit. I actually prefer this GT over the 612. It looks better IMO, both inside and out. Even though it has way less power, I reckon I would take this over the Ferrari.

OMG! this is the hottest Maserati i've ever seen! Check out the front, it looks so good and the headlights looks aggressive! This car is just madness! The rims are very unique, i've never seen that design before!
The only major disappointment is the rear, it looks like a DB9 which i hate...

Finally! A Maserati that looks better than a Ferrari! Performance shouldnt be that bad either....Definitely one of the best Maseratis I've ever seen....

*coughFerrarisharknosecough*

Not bad, the rear is a bit fussy, but at least it's a big difference from the last decade of Maserati GT cars.

the tail lights look kinda like 2 of the 7 dwarfs: Dopey and Grumpy. the cockpit looks Porsche-esque and the rest is fish all the way through. an angry one at that. its got an angry fish look up front that is complimented by the trident (also incorporated into the wheel design?) and the gills on the side

i like it!

Wow, it's pure hot

Oh wow I really like that. Looks very long, but that makes it look really nice. Interior is awesome, and the back looks great.

wowie, that car is like sex on wheels... omg, look at it!

the XKR is still better though... :p

soo, i cant beleive it came out like that, its madness compared to the other Maseratis, just look at the front, crazy beast, but now the bad thing, it gives me the feel of a Lexus IS, which is bad, Maser>Lexus, it was supposed to be that way, but now, Maserati = Lexus...:p

well the front end, it looks great, the grills looks pretty cool curving, well it looks quite cool, but i dont see Maserati in that, exept for that grill, but that dosent realyl give me that feeling, though thats a very good looking front end, then the rear, UGLY. the lights, looks like its from a Kia, or even worse, though the grill looks pretty cool, but the rear end after the rear quarter windows are really weird looking, though, nice interior, nice car

WOW the front is just amazing, I love it!!! great car.

loos like a really good car and well designed

The car looks great imo, hope they'll put some decent gearbox in it.

Holy f*ck what an absolutely beautiful car. I love seeing ones like this, fresh, new cars. Love the rear light clusters, make the car look much better than the previous Mazzer models. Front end is beautiful aswell, the front grille is nearly identical to the one on the MC12, and the MC12 is a great car. Love the interior aswell, much better than the previous models. Rims are new, and looking good too.

450bhp V8 is more than enough, loads of power, Italian soul and great looks, perfect.

The car looks great imo, hope they'll put some decent gearbox in it.
It seems to have the new Quattroporte's automatic gearbox which I've heard it works really good.

I read somewhere that it's the same gearbox that's in 7-series made by ZF. Well that would be good enough for me but it would be nice to see a manual version.

yeah thats what it will be, except its a 6-speed not 7

have to say its absoulty stunning, hoppefully this will change the way people think about maserati. rumors of a 450bhp gransport version are also promising sounding
and look at the interior, the 2 back seats actually have a little leg room, unlike a carrera 4s or aston DB9

Confirmed, the engine will be a 4.2 V8 (405 bhp) [http://www.italiaspeed.com/2007/cars/maserati/02/new_coupe/2002.html]

Thats a great car - very nice front - nice to see Maserati taking a new style direction.

The front looks kinda funny but the back looks awesome. For some reason when I saw this i thought of the 599 fioriano (spelling?)

just wait untill around 2009, when i bet the the current XKR gets a facelift and the upcoming 5.0-litre supercharged V8, with estimates of 500bhp and 700Nm of torque :). the XFR is going to be the first car to use the supercharged 5.0-litre in 2009. wow, can't wait for that... a real E63, RS6 (if there is one by then..) and M6-beater :)

Beautiful, I woke up to this and the Audi, I have died and gone to heaven!!


I would take this car over alot, love the styling and its flair. A+ 10 out of 10.

^and it looks even better from the side.

haha by the time it hits the road , those cars will have way more power ..

I've never seen such a unanimous decision on a car, on this site... but it is drop dead gorgeous!:smt007

It looks sexier than before, a lot.
I'm really in love with it right now. I don't care if it is more expensive than the SL55 but I'm still taking this over the SL.

Lovely interior.. the front was the best. The biggest change, although it has a bit of German feel but the rear makes the car back to Italian feel.

It looks bigger than the Gransport, outside and inside. It seems the Birdcage 75th inspired them.

The front is stunning.....wow... and what about the profile line..... a dream....

That looks real nice!!!! I like it alot!
I know it's cliche, but when you posted that, because of your avatar,, I imagined Borat saying that.

This car is soooo sexy. Its definetly on my top five most sexiest cars of all time that i wanna do list.

Ohhh wow! Thats friggin beautful... not as nice as a Aston Martin, but I'd have one over a Ferrari etc... if I could afford one that is...

The front looks too much like an older Honda S2000. It's ok I suppose.

this car reminds me why my name is Maserati Man.

Stuning car, friend of mine has ordered one, is arriving in Sept...havent specced the car yet but I dont think silver is the colour to get, my thoughts would be dark blue with sand coloured interior....

:)

A factory MC12 or one of these?

A factory MC12 or one of these? Can't I have both?! No?! Ok, the Birdcage Concept?! No?! Fine! One of these....

A factory MC12 or one of these?
i think he meant the new GranTurismo

Wow I love the looks. It looks aggressive yet elegant at the same time. the interior looks pretty nice. I really really want to see it in a color that isn't econobox silver though.
I should be seeing this car in person in March. Can't wait.
