After months of looking and countless offers I think I snagged the right mistress for me and picked her up today. Now for the trip home with some 3700km of GT cruising on an open road and with a top down hopefully.

Before you ask in my first 3 hours of ownership:

1. Yes TPMS are getting replaced, despite assurances from Maserati of Montreal that it's the tires that are causing them to fail, read, you did not buy these tires from us so suck it up.
2. Yes, I left the top down and it started to rain while I was having dinner
3. Compared to a 911 this is a land yacht - it will take some used to
4. The exhaust noise will undoubtedly make me pee my pants one day - or as soon as I find a decent tunnel to open it up.

oh hell yeah you bought it!! Gorgeous! If you ever take the paint protection film off, use a heatgun, or you'll rip the clear coat off like I did my Mercedes :/

are the side vents aftermarket?? They look blacked out. And great.

I think most of the stuff was blacked out like the vents and the wheels and the grille and the back Maserati sign , there is a bit of texture to it not just flat mat black.
