Hi Everyone, I have been searching this forum for threads on the Maserati Quattroporte 3.2 V8 / Evoluzione. Could someone point me in the direction of where a thread is, or if not we can start a new thread. I am looking to get a 1998 / 2000 Quattroporte 3.2 V8 or V8 Evoluzione I would like to hear from owners about living with the car with regards to running costs / maintenance and particular models to look out for? Does anyone have any information? Best regards, Richard
Maserati developed the Evo under Ferrari management and they changed a lot of things (600?) compared to the Otto (the non Evo V8). Whether the Evo is really that much better I don't know. An original Dutch delivery Evo is shown in this video from 10-2013 with 281.000 km. According to the owner the maintenance file of this car shows costs that total an amount about equal to the price of the car when new. Klokje Rond - Maserati Quattroporte | Auto video's - AutoWeek.nl
I owned a pre Ferrari 1995 Ghibli and the only non service thing that needed replaced was the clutch. Was a super car. All the advice is buy the Ferrari on cars, but I felt my car was very well made. McGrath Maserati seem to be an authority these days. You could give them a ring about running costs. McGrath Maserati | Service, Restoration and Parts Quattroporte has great lines, though they seem very unloved. A lot of the final series cars were sold in Japan and you can find nice low miles cars there. I bought mine in Germany. It had spent the first two years in Rome, then I got it. 9000 km 3.2 Evo manual for sale now in Germany. Image Unavailable, Please Login
