MC20 Delivery Date discussion

38652 Views 399 Replies 40 Participants Last post by  WorldTraveler
Who in here have actually ordered a MC20 and what delivery dates were given to you by your dealer?
I have an allocation for one which is supposed to arrive in Sep/Oct 2021. They will start building it in March is what I was told. I did get an email directly from Maserati about my order confirmation.
I have seen it in person and it looks stunning. I believe it will surprise a lot of people and will make you rethink Maserati.
Please feel free to share your thoughts / experience and what you think about the car? I think it will be a much more exclusive car for a while as I was told that only 450 are being made for 2021.

Bianco Audace with blue calipers, blue interior, suspension lifter, heated seats, headrest stitching, auto dimming mirrors, mirror birdcage wheels, ELSD, and blind spot alert.

I believe #58 in ordering system but who knows. They initially told me July delivery but I’m thinking October so I don’t get too anxious.
Where is everyone located? Northern Virginia here....
I am in GA.
El Paso Tx. Doubt there will be to many running around.
Mine is coming to New York in January 2022 because I’ve ordered carbon roof. We are building 45 carbon fiber aero kits for the MC20.
If interested please inquire via www.7designhouse.com

Hi Dane. Congrats on your MC20 order!

We are building a stunning carbon aero kit for the MC20 with www.7designhouse.com.

Please contact me for more details if you are interested. This is an amazing value for MC20 owners. ARIA carbon significantly elevates the aggression and enhances its aerodynamics.

What I know so far...
My car: Grigio Mistero with Carbon roof (note when you order the car, there we’re some options that weren’t on the online configurator.
Date Order was Placed: Last October.
Price: Sticker, although Fiat group allows dealers to price vehicles as they see fit.
Delivery: I was originally told Q4, and the GM doesn’t have any updated ETA although he routinely checks with corporate. I was also told that it doesn’t depend upon when the car was ordered (I was pretty early in the queue, as they hadn’t even completed the east coast tour of the car), but that production would depend more upon the color you ordered and how many were ordered; I.e., they’d produce all the white cars, then grey cars (wishful thinking on my part), and so on, so it could be a wait if you drew the wrong stick on color.
Production: I was told 300 to 400 world-wide...my estimate is 150 come to the US based on the number of dealers here and dealers getting an allocation of 0 to 4 cars depending upon size of dealership (some averaging). I was also told earlier this month that due to the low vol that the chip shortage shouldn’t be a factor (fingers crossed). Car has been sold out world-wide for several months.
Personal: I haven’t been this excited about a car in 20 years and find myself feeling very lucky to have secured a car, especially as I had no businessman or person relationship with the dealer prior to the MC20.

Thank you! I’m champing at the bit waiting for it…it was a special event where my son and I spent over two hours at the dealership obsessing over every detail with the GM who was incredibly helpful (after I had spent two hours the week before with the GM).

I just noticed 74 Merak in your profile…that’s insane…if you have a pic or two, I’d love to see (if that’s not cool to do as this is the MC20 thread, then I understand—I don’t want to upset anyone).

I suppose one photo can't hurt ;). The Merak is one of the MC20 forefathers - the mid-engined Maserati road cars - alongside the Bora and the MC12. Like the MC20, the Merak also has a V6.

Thank you. A very nice design by Giugiaro. I think the lineage is quite clear :). The MC20 is definitely a looker too :sneaky:

I would have posted a photo of mine which I had for a few years while I lived in Cleveland in the late 70s, but 1) mine was a painted-over rust bucket and if that wasn’t enough it was also previously totaled and shoddily restored and 2) even if I did find the photo which is probably buried in a stack of albums somewhere in the house, it’s probably all faded out ( unfortunately that’s what happens to “real“ photos before the digital age came along .. ) so it would not do this gorgeous car justice. Seeing its clean image like in the above photo is a suitable tribute . (y)

That Merak is gorgeous.

The MC20 is definitely my next dream car. By the way, if I was buying a first year MC20 1 of ~400ish, I don't think I would aftermarket anything. Just my 2 cents.

Yes, a 5000GT , and it couldn't do 185 unless you took it to the top of a mountain and just gave it a push ..:p 168 mph top speed according to Maserati. Of course he might have had it modified, but to get another 17 mph at that top end level where wind resistance / aerodynamics are a bigger enemy, you need a hell of a lot more HP ( it's not a proportional equation ) , so not sure what he could have done to it if indeed it attained 185. :unsure: But the line in the lyrics wouldn't rhyme so he would have had to come up with something else..

It might well have been an indicated 185 ;)
... Instruments were somewhat "optimistic" back then :D
Also, keep in mind that no road car in the mid-1960s did 185; Forget all the Germans, all the French, all the British, and no Maserati, no Ferrari, not even the Lamborghini Miura...
Very true, the speedometers are not only factory set to show a higher speed than actual, but in addition, at that speed level the “normal” speedometer error can be 10-15% above . So unless the speed is GPS measured, relying on the speedometer reading gives one a bit of a false sense of how fast you’re going ..
