These updates literally transform the car. It handles, shifts and performs in an amazing way. I've had Porsches and other sport/grand touring cars in the past and I love the way this car drives. It is firm with the lowered springs, but even with the adjustable SkyHook Suspension set in Sport mode it is not kidney shattering or offensive - my wife rides with me and does not complain! With nearly 400 HP and this handling, I would not want to be in a mid-2000s 911 - I honestly believe the Maserati is a faster, better handling (more predictable) car and it looks a million times better! I will let you look at the pictures, but it has very low miles and is in absolutely stunning condition.
Price wise, the opening bid amount is my absolute bottom price and is a steal! In the past two years, between buying the car and doing the upgrades, I have over $55k in the car. I obviously will take as much as you are willing to pay for it, but as I said, I am willing to live with the highest bid over $40k.
The car gets compliments everywhere you go. The yellow is absolutely beautiful and really brings out the gorgeous lines of the GranSport. This is a really great car that someone will get the opportunity to own for a lot less than you could possibly build one for on your own. Good luck and happy bidding!
Closing note: The date on the pictures is wrong - I took them today 04/09/2017 and did not notice the date on the camera was wrong until I got home and downloaded the pictures - I am too lazy to go do it all over again!

“Absolutely beautiful car in outstanding condition! Mileage shown is approximate as I drive it occasionally to keep everything lubricated and running right! This car is set up how the car should of come from the factory. It is fast, handles great and looks absolutely stunning! If you have been looking for the best GranSport available, this one has to be at or near the top of the list! Tons of Formula Dynamics upgrades and includes the stock parts that have been removed to accommodate the upgrades - except the original wheels which were sold when the Veloce Corsa wheels and Vredestein tires were put on. With over $20k in upgrades, you can buy a Maserati with under 20k miles on it for a lot less than it is worth. Bid with confidence and get the car you really want.
