    I just saw this on another site (this is not my picture). I didn't realize Maserati would be releasing a new model line. I really like the Gran Turismo, but I'm not so sure about this car.

    What are your thoughts on the styling? Is this just a concept? Any more info on the car?

    This car was presented by the revived Carrozzeria Touring a couple of years ago; see http://www.touringsuperleggera.eu/en/home.asp. Touring also offers a very nice Shooting Brake style model based on the Quattroporte...

    I thinkt the design of the A8GCS Berlinetta is fantastic, but the car is based on the "old" Gran Sport platform, not the current Gran Turismo.

    Cheers,
    Gabriel

    I like it. Has a lot of BWM Z8 in it though.

    I wonder how many of those A8GCS Berlinettas have been produced and sold? Anyone knows?

    I definitely see the Z8 in there, but I'm still having a hard time getting past the front grille. It's interesting...the grille was what really hooked me with the Gran Turismo. But here...it just doesn't do it for me.
