Details:
After almost 5 years of ownership, I have decided to sell my Quattroporte - this car has been amazing to me. It is very well optioned, needs nothing and is 100% turn-key road-ready. The Ferrari-sourced 400HP/330 LB-Ft torque 4.2 liter V8 sounds awesome (especially in sport mode, which alters the exhaust valves and firms the suspension, as well as changing the shift points to a more aggressive setting) and the German ZF automatic 6-speed transmission shift much more smoothly vs. the legacy Duo-select transmissions. Standard equipment includes 4-wheel cross-drilled brake rotors, ASR traction control, power sunroof/windows/mirrors, skyhook suspension, driver/passenger/side and curtain-window airbags. The car is also equipped with the 6-disc CD changer/multi-media sat-navigation and 9-speaker Bose sounds system, as well as dual zone automatic climate control. Installed from the dealer at time of purchase was also a Phantom Footprints body-panel identification system and Enviro-Guard next generation polymer paint protection.

You will be hard pressed to find a more meticulous owner, and a car with a more documented history. I am the 3rd owner, and purchased the vehicle from the Jaguar Houston North dealership in 6/2010 with 27,800 miles (at that time, it was still under the factory warranty until 9/2011). In 6/2010, I had put the car through an extensive pre-purchase inspection (PPI) by the dealer (Ferrari/Maserati of Houston) and it passed with flying colors (I have the Ferrari 101-point PPI inspection for review). To say the car is a garage queen is an under statement.

Upgrades:
1) 2010 OEM Maserati GTS Wheels - In 7/2010, I upgraded the original 20" 7-spoke design wheels with 2010 version OEM GTS wheels (lighter/stronger and better looking in my opinion). They are the perfect offset/size from Maserati (20"x8.5" front/20"x10.5" rear) to they fit perfectly and retain the factory tire sizes.
2) New Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport tires - In 2/2014 (at 37,400 miles), I installed new front (245/35/20) and rear (285/30/20) tires. The tires have ~1,100 miles on them, are like brand new and have a transferable lifetime warranty on balancing/rubber valve stems, etc.

Recent Service History (I have all supporting documentation):
1) 6/2014 - (37,500 miles) - annual service (oil change/filters/etc), as well as new passenger front window regulator (driver's side front window regular was changed 5/2011) and new TPMS sensors
2) 7/2013 - (36,400 miles) - 37.7k service (includes oil/filter, air/pollen filters, new belts (serpentine/power steering), etc. Also performed campaign 205 (replaced rear tie-rods - covered under warranty), and replaced rear brake rotors/pads and front brake pads. Total cost ~$4,500
3) 4/2011 - (31,400 miles) - 25k service (includes oil/filter, air/pollen filters, differential/brake fluid, new serpentine/water pump belts, etc. Total cost ~ $1,800
4) 11/2010 - (29,000 miles) - brake light switch replaced under warranty
5) 7/2010 - (28,000 miles) - driver's side sun-visor and steering wheel/shroud replaced under warranty

Exterior:
From an aesthetic perspective, the car is stunning. It never sees rain and has lived in my garage. The exterior paint is flat out excellent (the car is polished with Zaino products regularly). The car has zero dings, scratches or scrapes. You will only find a few tiny, indiscernible rock chips on the front bumper cover. The wheels are in excellent condition (ie: no bends/cracks), and there are only very minor curb markings on two wheels.

Interior:
In the effort of full disclosure and having read other Maserati descriptions, viewed pics and seen several cars personally over the past 5 years, here is additional interior detail that I believe is important to discuss: The steering wheel leather and shift boot are unscathed (no marks, wear, etc). The door sills, entry felt, and associated trim show no wear. All switches show no wear marks, the door panels and console trim are in excellent condition (no bubbles). The windshield weather stripping is in excellent condition (no shrinkage). All displays (HVAC, radio, clock) illuminate brightly (no dimming or burn outs). All gauges, warning lights, interior lights operate properly. All pedals show minimal wear. The glove box and console liners are immaculate, as is the headliner (non-smoking interior). The entry felt is like new, all weather-stripping is supple (no tears), there is no wear on the console or door panels from "knee-rubbing", the dash is flawless, and all Bose speakers sound fantastic. The seats and leather are in excellent condition (regularly conditioned), and only the driver's seat has a small (less than 1") wear marking on the seat bottom. All glass is defect free, and the windows were professionally tinted. Of note, a few of the stereo/navigation controls are slightly sticky.

As detailed, this car is in pristine shape and is a must see. While I haven't been all that active on this forum, I have been an active member of NSXprime for ~12 years, and have a 100% positive iTrader/feedback rating (please feel free to reference). Should you have any questions, please feel free to email/PM - I have many more pictures and am happy to provide more detail if necessary.
Thanks for looking - Darren

Thanks!

 

thanks, much appreciated

 

All PMs replied to, thank you

 

thanks for all the feedback/kind remarks - I agree - this car has gorgeous lines to it

 

Thanks for all the kind remarks. That said, the car is still available!

SMS - No, I don't have the original sport wheels. I sold them once I bought the 2010+ GTS wheels. Of note, the GTS wheels that are on the car now are OEM Maserati - I bought them brand new (and have the receipt) from Ferrari of Houston. I love the look of those GTS wheels on the car - much more sharp vs. the original sport wheels in my opinion.

 

I agree on both fronts - the GTS wheels are much better looking vs. the stock 07's (in my opinion), and the ZF automatic is very smooth - no issues whatsoever.

 

Lots of discussion, so I'm offering a little more incentive - PRICE REDUCTION to $36,750 OBO

 

All PM's replied to - price reduction to $35,750 OBO!

 

Current deal fell through due to financing issues; I'm placing a premium on certainty to close at the expense of price - Price reduced to $34,750 OBO! Bring all offers!

 

The car has been SOLD! thank you!
