One thing I don't hear about the 2002 is that it's the only model with launch control. You can't get that on the new 430 in the US.
It's a much rawer car if you like that and it has the most direct CC in the maseratis. Shifts are harsher put it in sport/no TC/and launch; pow CC is right there. I did not and will not upgraded my CC software, this is how I like it to shift. But in auto its a nightmare, and can be tricky around town.
Forgot one other thing also kicks up rpm's during down shift.
