Maserati Alfieri Concept




It is based on the Ferrari 149 chassis (California), being a 2+2 GT Coupé powered by a +500 PS 3.8l V8. It previews a possible Porsche 911, Jaguar F-Type and Mercedes SLS AMG rival. This model could be called "GranSport" when it hits the market.

More tomorrow!

Anything is better than the California. That's actually not bad.

Now THIS, I really like. Much more than the Ghilbi that was posted in another thread. Very sleek, front end looks mean as hell. Would look awesome in black on black.

I personally don't like it that much. I still prefer the Pininfarina design of the Maserati GranTurismo. Of course this is only a concept, production car will likely be different.

I absolutely love it. But as Levi pointed out, the Granturismo is still a beautiful car. Kind of stands the test of time considering it's been out quite a few years now.

The Gran Turismo is still the better looking car between the two.

Why would a GT coupe be a porsche 911 rival? They're completely different cars.

I like it very much now, it has grown on me. Definitely better design than new Quattroporte or Ghibli.









By the way, it is winner of Concept Cars category of this years Villa d'Este Concourse.

Beautiful car.

Beautiful car.
It is smaller than the 6 Series, which is 4.900mm compared to the alternative GranTurismo which is 4.880mm, both having 4 seats. The Alfieri is a 2+2 and is 4.590mm long, 50mm longer than a 911.
