I had the pleasure of driving a new GTS version for a while and still have great memories of it.

As an Italian who owned several of these, i can definitely say, they are great, just buy the ZF transmission models that came after the small facelift, the ones that break are the F1 "Ferrari" transmission ones, here in Europe the F1 equipped cars are worth half what the ZF cars are. It is a great sedan, maybe the best sedan ever made, The engines are bulletproof with the right care and maintenance, comfortable, sounds amazing, check if the transmission had a service, ZF and Maserati say that is lifetime, but all the specialists suggest a flush and filter every 70k miles. As for the suspension going on and off, check the shock connectors, they can get weathered and malfunction, also the accelerometer can go bad. Those cars also like to sort itself sometimes when you leave the battery unplugged overnight, we call it an Italian reset. the Buttons behind the steering wheel are for the radio, the top and bottom ones change the radio station and or changes the CD on the CD changer, the middle one usually makes the navigation come up on the screen.

Bro, I miss your videos.🎉🎉

chapter 11 is part of maserati ownership experience

You have brass balls buying most of these vehicles. My friend bought one years ago, also in Phoenix, from the previous owner. Fantastic car and the absolute most comfortable front passenger seat I've ever sat in. About 4-5 months after he got it, he was going to his office on the freeway and the engine stopped, somewhat noisily. Broken valves, camshaft and assorted other parts and a $27,000 bill from the dealer for the 7 week fix, were enough to persuade him to sell it soon after. Best of luck to the bravest risk taker in buying high end luxury cars for dirt cheap on KZread.

Waldo, this is what I come here to watch and appreciate such content. I wish there would be more follow up on incomplete projects.

Radiator hoses, belts, and rubber gaskets do not like Arizona heat. What a great sound after ditching that muffler! Well chosen.

Add spark plug wires as well. I remember lifting the hood as night when the engine was running and the plug wires were glowing.

What happened to the generator build?

Waldo has been found 😅😅😅

I've never been so anxious about the releasing of a KZread video. Keep up the wonderful work!!

Waldo! We missed you. Hope everything is well. Good to see you back.

This channel is one of the only ones where I'll stop whatever im doing to immediately watch a new video

Welcome back!! I was literally just wondering what happened to you considering i hadn't seen a new video and thought maybe I didn't turn on notifications. And then a few hours later, this video dropped!! I was like Waldo heard me!!!!

Waldo, you are smart for avoiding I40, it's in disrepair, crumbling and so many miles of potholes. I believe one pothole was so bad that it destroyed a womans front end, causing her to lose control, flip her car and she passed away. I do know that her family is suing the state of Arizona.

It’s been a while glad you are uploading again 😊

So relaxing to watch. I want to visit US as a tourist someday to do road trips like this.

Waldo, always love your videos and explanations. I appreciate this video very much because it's done from a Users or Consumers point of view, rather than an extremely detailed video that shows unnecessary detail, although obviously you know your stuff. Unfortunately, for me, I lean towards the higher reliability level of cars like Toyota and Honda, but would gladly own I e these fine autos if I knew a guy like yourself was close by. Appreciate your hard work and keep posting!

Little tip for draining oil: loosen the nut with your tool until you can take it off by hand, then you can get it out of the way quick enough to not get oil everywhere

I helped pull one of these out of a ditch after a accident. The guy said it was the second time skidding off the road that day. Poor guy was driving on icy roads with bald summer tires. I suggested he park for the season else his luck may run out.

Nice to see a new video. Id love to see a update on the gooseneck trailer project

Great car, and even better vid.🙂 Thank you once again for taking the trouble to include your non-US viewers in your data updates e.g. MPG/distances etc. I've driven many tens of thousands of miles in the US and have bought about a $1,000,000-worth of gas, plus I happen to know the size of a US gallon etc. But honestly, doing the miles/km/gals etc conversions is really considerate, and it's another good reason why I subscribed a long time ago.🙂 Love the car too. Cheers. 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Poor Giovanni getting called out for his button placement😿 But oh boy, after he got his vino into him, he really nailed the styling of the car!

Your videos are like the best BBQ (beef brisket) restaurants in TX, open one day a week and top quality - I appreciate this rare treat.

Great video! I’m definitely more into the welding, building, truck, and equipment stuff. However this is awesome too. Really need more content!!

Well You wish you were a drug smuggler once you pay $6K for a clutch, $4K for a transmission pump, $5K for a pair of front struts... Ohhhh the beauty of buying a cheap Maserati at an auction.

Love your videos Waldo. Presentation / content are always the best and look forward to your next project.

Waldo you're back!!! Soo happy to have another video!!! I love your content!!!

Love your stuff. Looking forward to part 2.

I have a 2008 Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT in the color "Bianco fuji". Mother-of-pearl white with the same type of gearbox and V8 405hp and a sunroof. The engine in the car is of type F136, which is the same type of engine that is in several different Maserati and, among other things, in the Ferrari f430, California and 458. A quality engine with a lovely V8 sound and good operational reliability. You have made a good choice and with normal inspection and maintenance you will have a good car for many years.

Finally!! Was rewatching your videos yesterday reminiscing

It's been a minute since your last video. No hating here...I'm just extremely happy to see you posting a video! That aftermarket x-pipe sure makes a difference in the exhaust note. I like it!

I'm glad your back!

Glad to see you again Waldo! I can’t wait to see transmission fluid condition and find out why it hiccuped. I hope Aspen likes your new ride! Thanks for sharing!

It has fairly high miles so it was probably was a daily driver that was maintained. Its fairly good mechanical condition is most likely due to being driven frequently instead of being a "GARAGE QUEEN".

Another good video. Really enjoyed watching it. Looking forward to see you doing a full service on it.

The side view of these cars is amazing, I think they are stunning to look at.

Great video Waldo. Looking forward to the next one.

I love watching these videos

Good to see you back on the air! Looking fwd to the Maserati videos. I'm skittish on transmissions and was curious why you didn't change out that oil. Best Regards, Jay.

Thanks for sharing your Maserati experience 👍🏻 I just purchased a 2014 QUATTROPORTE Sq4 and I absolutely love it. Glad I found your channel just subscribed

Thanks for the road trip. Been to a few of those places.

Good idea to replace the other coolant hoses when one fails. At least check that they're not brittle like the burst one was.

Good stuff. I’ve been looking for a new video!

Once again top quality Video always a great watch, in my humble opinion the best on KZread.

I legit watch all your videos, i was soo excited too see a new one today! thank you

Beautiful car, love the sound and look. Look forward to many Maserati videos. New subscriber 👍

Waldo, hopefully a solenoid fixes your trans issue, but the ZF 6 speeds are notorious for worn rear stator bushings which cause an E clutch circuit leak that results in 3-4 slipping. My LR4 had it and I had to rebuild the trans, but not before trying all the easy stuff (seals, solenoids, fluid change, etc). Good luck! I look forward to your part 2 of the Maserati series

Good to see you back, love your content

Awesome.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

You back! Keep postin!

They're always absolute gems. Please part 2. That trans will be very interesting. I get no where so thanks for the road trip.

A new Waldo video, yeah.... Nice ride. Hope it is reliable for you. Hoped you enjoyed your drive thru the humid south.

radiator hoses just get old and most often soft which is where the bursts come from. when i acquire a car with mystery in its history i always want to change out parts that will put you on the side of the road- upper and lower radiator hoses specifically

Beautiful car, Sir you make the best videos on the internet in my opinion. Thank you for sharing

I just bought myself a 2009 quattoporte myself! it will be exciting to see what you do with this!

Scary car, its truly an italian woman with how temperamental and prone to outbursts it is. Beautiful to look at though, if I were a master mechanic I'd probably buy one, otherwise the service costs are astronomical for what will (not can) break.

I love to see a new video, cool purchase.

Maserati m139, my favorite car ever. Bought a scale model just because the car is so damn good looking.

WOOOOOO finally a new video!! Yay! Waldo, could you tell me which Autel model exactly you have/use? I've been thinking about getting one like that. Thanks brotha!!

What happened to you Waldo ? I haven't seen any videos from you a very long time, I thought you give up on the projects, it's great to see you back, I love your clear and concise step by step audios so I really like your videos.

One thing that made me curious as na European, is the trucks overtaking You on the highway. In EU trucks have installed hard limiters, so they can't go faster than 56mph, and You in a regular car would be driving with speed greatly above 60, and more like between 75-90mph.

@WaldosWorld

I'm sure some trucks have limiters here in the US, but there are also some truckers who drive real fast!

You will also discover the curse of Maserati. You may think you have a diamond in the rough, it’s actually an abandoned coal mine that you will throw untold wealth into.

Hi Waldo, it's been a while. Nice addition to the fleet! It looked like a good time sweeping through the Green Mountain state in that beast. It sounds like it is ready to go. Can't imagine what a complete fluid flush will cost if a rad hose is $158!

Dear Mr. Waldo. 👍👌👏 Oh WOW, simply fantastic! What a wonderful and great sounding car. Obviously it's really fun to drive. Congratulations 🎉 for getting this 2016 Maserati so incredibly cheap. A ZF (= Zahnradfabrik Friedrichshafen) gear box should not be very difficult to maintain/repair. Maybe even a new filter and oil will do it (as it often does). Maybe the gear box got hot a few times and it kind of cooked the oil? Because especially a black car in Arizona gets hot often. Apart from the radiator hoses, there might be other hoses and rubber stuff that should be thoroughly inspected. I'm happy to see you happy and to see a new video. Of course I'm eagerly looking forward to watch the second part. Until then I hope that you will have fun driving this iconic car. Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health in particular.

Looking forward to part II!

I've never understood why Italian cars are so unreliable in the States. In Europe they actually run pretty good, in many cases better and longer than their German competitors; must be the shipping by sea that damages the wiring or maybe the salt on the roads or something. An interesting anecdote is that Alfa Romeo once brought a model (can't remember which) that they used to sell in Europe to the US. In the US, there were various complaints of electrical issues unheard from European customers. This turned out to be because there wasn't a cup holder on the console but people from the US placed their drinks there anyway and the condensation dripped down into some buttons causing short circuits in the system; since then all US bound Alfa Romeo cars do have cup holders

Waldo good to see you back! Will you do an update on any channel vehicles such as the 1998 GMC?

You dont post often Waldo. However Its always great to see you mate
