2012 Maserati GranTurismo Sport
More power, more aggression, more sex
By Shahzad Sheikh
Yet another variant of the super-sexy GranTurismo? Where does it fit in?
So far there is the GranTurismo, GranTurismo S CambioCorsa and GranTurismo S Automatica, then the MC Stradale and let’s not even get into the GranCabrio…
Now this the GranTurismo Sport with more aggressive style and a more power than even the ferocious MC Stradale (10bhp more). In fact it appears to be a replacement for the GranTurismo S, and will sit under the Stradale, doing without that car’s harsh weight-saving antics.
So whilst it gets a full interior (with rear seats and no roll cage) it does take the Stradale’s front bumper treatment, allowing more air to be channel to the engine and brakes. There’s also new headlamp with daytime LEDs and redesigned seats inside – which makes sense since they’ve never been the most comfortable in the business.
See it at the Geneva Motor Show next month.
