PuristSPro LA Auto Show - Maserati
PuristSPro sees the latest debut of the bad boy favorite sedan. The Maserati Ghibli. Please read below for photographs and a commentary of this wicked playboy machine.
My Sir Of Teat. Miser of Tea. Mister Achey. Maze of Treats. Maserati.
The car already seats five. Any footballer can already bring four kittens back to his place. What's the huge trunk for?
The steering wheel rim is big, thick, and black. The driver holds onto it. With two hands.
Maserati was the first high end sports-car that I ever drove. Before ever driving a Porsche, I drove a Maserati - and quite by accident. It was August, 2003 or 2004. Maserati 4200 Coupe Cambiocorsa. I loved the car, it was a great car that tugged at my heart-strings, its sound played with my emotions, and the performance blew/blowed me away!
A love affair of Maserati cars has continued, but I don't think I've ever really driven them quite again, nor ever fell in love with Maserati cars ever again. Something to do with all those clutch failures and oil leaks was just a turn-off from the brand.
But there's a new affair with Maserati coming, it's called the Ghibli. And while I don't know the etymology of the word Ghibli, it's certainly an interesting vehicle at the LA Auto Show that reeks of impurity, impunity, and devilishness. If the devil wears Prada, she drives a Maserati. How can a car fill you with such emotion that it's almost a sin to be in one, much less own one... It's like that beautiful girl, but who's truly an evil temptress.
A brown Quattroporte.
The Blue Ghibli Q4
Maserati and BMW's signature colors are blue
Fixed brake calipers front and rear
The Source of All Evil
The Ghibli
Look at those haunches in the rear fenders... Those sinewy muscles.
A gray Maserati? For me? For you?
There's so much leather in here...
Enough leather in here to fulfill a leather fetish...
This piece going up the B pillar and down to the sill is all made from hard plastic. The only thing ruining the leather fetishist's experience with this car.

Another gray Maserati... The Dark Lord's car has arrived. Trident provided. Look, all of these men are trying to get inside her.
Maserati is totally into 50 Shades of Gray... All of the cars were gray except for one blue and one brown. Even the tiles on the floor...
Here they go, trying to prove to me they're not just gray.
This naughty car is definitely not going to help you get onto Santa's nice list, and almost certainly on the naughty list. It may be wise to stay away, but there's a strong draw. And didn't the girls say they always liked "bad boys?" Why do they complain when they get what they originally said they wanted?
Come closer if you dare.

I actually test drove the Maserati Ghibli S Q4 yesterday
In terms of performance, it was just so so for me I was hoping for a more entertaining ride but the acceleration seemed a bit odd for me. Slow at first but then the engine growls at an awkward time IMO. I felt the engine roar didn't match the timing of th...
Great feedback!
Thank you Anthony for the feedback. I honestly feel that a lot of these smaller car companies don't have the money for the painstaking R & D to go into the car. So in the end, larger firms a la Mercedes-Benz and BMW do make a better product. The Ghibl...
