Hi everybody,
Just wanted to hear what your view on the Coupe handling is. I have a 2003 Coupe CC with Skyhook. I'm a quite "active" driver (guess most of you are!) and like to drive fast and hard from time to time.
I use the Sport mode quite frequently even though the roads are a little bumpy sometimes. Now, I find that the handling of the car isn't that great when put under pressure, whether in sport mode or not. It feels kind of heavy and also a bit unstable at times. You really have to work hard to move it well in corners and turns. Sometimes I actually think the cars handling differs from day to day, sometimes terrible, sometimes okey
Think the sport mode isn't much better. Still pretty unstable and unpredictable when under pressure.
Maybe my problem is just that I've driven the wrong brand before, which is BMW. Both my two previous BMW's, which were standard 3-series cars with sport packages, would easily outhandle the maserati and drive much more stable and sporty. The Maserati would of course kick their *sses on a straight road with that great engine though.. And I should fill in though that I really like the Maserati even though it has some "issues".
I've had my car checked for wheels, suspension, tires are new etc and everything is as it should be (even had it checked at two different shops). Overall, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.
What's your opinion about the Maserati Coupe's handling capabilities? Do you think there is something wrong with mine or are they all like this?
Thanks.
