that is wrong and very old sterotype which is still attached on modern Jags which are fairly reliable cars. but that comment is still accurate in terms of that Jags and Maserati are similar in way that they are both rare luxurious EU cars you don't see in streets everyday and they get a lot of attention but Jags are far better cars. Maserati feels like trap for people who bought this instead of Jag because they did not make correct research.

I’ve had 4 Quattroporte‘s and my latest is a Sport GTS Awards Edition with the 4.7 litre engine and adjustable exhaust when the sport button is pressed. Sounds amazing and drives amazing. By the way Hoovie, I’ve had mine on the track and they are neutral handling because of the almost 50/50 weight distribution. Turn in at the corner, hit the Apex and floor it - exits like an F1 car. You’re right - they do have quirks and funny features, but that’s the appeal. luckily, I’ve had hardly any faults in 10 years of ownership - just the brake switch which causes all sorts of other problems. There isn’t another car that you can buy for the price that is so rare and unique and can be a daily driver that you can be proud to say you own - I drive a Maserati 😎

Maserati used to have a dealership in nola. Near Lee Circle as I recall. Of course it's long gone.

I've had a 2007 Quattroporte Sport GT with the DuoSelect gearbox for 5 years. I've driven it from my home in the UK to Italy, it's pretty quick on the German autobahns, easy 140mph cruiser with 30mph to spare when traffic permists. Enough room in the boot /trunk for a family of 5 if you use the spare wheel well. It's been very reliable, but it's expensive to maintain. You're wrong about the paddles - they were an option on the ZF-equipped cars, so maybe they were removed from yours, or someone swapped a transmission controller. Wouldn't have left the factory like that. Oh, and when DeMoron tested one of these he was pressing the display button thinking it was the cruise control! He's such a bore - don't bother copying his style :)

My 2007 Maserati Executive GT was an amazing car. Initial service at the Ferrari dealer was $7,800. After $1,000 window clip repair, several ECUs under the dash where the flush windshield causes leaks that kill computers. Add the $2,800 alternator and you get $14,000+ repairs in the first 6 months. I was done.

Engine block cast in Detroit, shipped to Ferrari Italy for machining, different crank fitted to a Ferrari engine. The F136, commonly known as Ferrari-Maserati engine, is a family of 90° V8 petrol engines jointly developed by Ferrari and Maserati and produced by Ferrari; these engines displace between 4.2 L and 4.7 L, and produce between 390 PS (287 kW; 385 hp) and 605 PS (445 kW; 597 hp). Sounds great with X pipe exhaust.

That would be extremely sad. My preference is for handling. Others may want comfort, or mileage, or whatever. Basing a car on sound sounds like a ricer fanatic with straight-pipe exhaust.

I don't know if the BMW''s build in the USA are of lesser quality but BMW, Mercedes and Audi are all considered to be extremely reliable in Europe, only beaten by Porsche, Volkswagen, and Skoda (brand build out of previous gen Volkswagen parts). American cars are considered notoriously unreliable here. I don't know if we have different definitions for reliability or that European mechanics don't get American cars and vice versa but every American youtuber complains about European reliability, it is very strange to Europeans. However, yes Italian and french cars are unreliable pieces of crap and the only thing that matches German reliability and exceeds it is Toyota. But I would be happy to hear the American perspective.

I am a former BMW owner (and I will never own one again). One of the problems with German cars in the states is the cost of parts. As an example, I had a battery cable (BMW called it an intelligent battery system because it had a $3 microchip in it) develop a short. For a new battery cable, BMW wanted to charge me $500 (let that sink in, $500 for a battery cable). I had similar experiences on other parts of the car. So, while I didn't find my german car to be terribly unreliable (it wasn't great but not bad), I found the part costs here to be 3-5 times more expensive than what they would have been on an american/Japanese car. More generally, service costs even from an independent were very high when compared to servicing an american/japanese car. I am not going to be raped on parts/service costs so I sold my BMW and will probably buy Asian cars from here on out. Toyota and honda parts are pretty inexpensive.

@@clintfeekes7177 That is indeed ridiculous, maybe also the fact that labour is a lot cheaper in the US on average then western Europe which makes the parts pricing less relevant for us. I have always owned 90's and 80's BMW's and Mercedes and for me getting the parts was always cheap and simple. Honda's are virtually not relevant here and Toyota primarily sells small hatchbacks or the Prius which means they aren't competing with anybody but Volkswagen. Volkswagen golf and polo are just a far better deal quality and option wise then any Asian alternative for us.

I'm European, a petrolhead and I can tell you generally speaking BMWs, Mercedes and Audis are unreliable money pits. They used to be expensive to run but reliable, mostly anyway, but not anymore. Italian and French cars are usually quite reliable, specially their engines. Toyotas are way more reliable than German cars.

I think it’s primarily based on cost to repair. German parts are really pricey here, and there are way fewer dealerships for say, BMW, so the competition for repairs is basically none.

Xavi Chuvy I have a very very different experience, especially something like Alfa Romeo is absolute terrible build quality. The French cars, I have seen a couple after crashes and I am not driving in one of those plastic death traps. What do you base this on? Because honestly I feel like a lot of times it is based on the crazy 500hp cars which are now 10 years old and were driven by somebody who never did any proper upkeep. In my experience if you look closely after all your fluids, yearly maintenue with filters German stuff never breaks.

that ding really stands out in that lighting

Fun fact. I cat and mouse, highway raced; one of these in rush hour traffic around 465 in Indy in my C5 Vette and it was one of the most fulfilling drives I’ve ever had. It was fun to try and keep up. What a machine. I love the beauty of a Maserati.

@@ricky-sanchez They've been keeping it down for the longest time but they can't anymore. Government mandates for lower emissions are already driving the ICE cartel into the ground. Also, simple fact that the percentage of EV sales are going up at a staggering rate, means that once people realize the moths about evs aren't true, EVs are gonna become the norm, and then absolutely noone will want an ICE car. Just like noone wants a flip phone, VCR, or CRT TVs anymore. ICE is literally this old fashioned and it's time for it to phase out and die, which it will. Most manufacturers and governments are already saying they'll be phasing out ICE by 2022-2025...and it should've happened way sooner if the ICE cartel hadn't held back progress all these decades, it's too late now though... Tesla has changed the view people have on the automotive world and this change will happen very quickly, it's accelerating at a huge pace. Once the EV infrastructure gets big in a couple years, ICE cars will be 2 for a dollar, noone will want them.

I’ve owned a 2009 Maserati and bought it used with 25k miles in 2013. First year no issues, but the next 2 cost me 12k in repairs for 7600miles. Unloaded to an up and coming “rapper” and purchased a 2015 Lexus gs350 F. Past 7 years only thing I’ve had to do to the Lexus is oil changes, and brakes. It recently hit 180k miles and my daughter will be driving it for the next few years while she finishes HS and then starts college.
