    Hello everybody, this is my first post in the Maserati section. I just bought a 2008 Granturismo and have a couple of questions ...
    1) Any other way to transfer MP3 files in the Jukebox, besides the very slow way of the CD, what is the function of the USB port in the glove box then ?
    2)Telephone connectivity, anybody found a way to utilize the Media system to communicate with a cell phone Bluetooth ?

    Any help, I appreciate it !

    I'm no help, but wanted to say congratulations on buying one of the best looking cars of the last 10 years! I got to see them being built last July.

    I would also add my congratulations - I too have one - but would also endorse your question. I have the iPod connection in my cars glovebox and I find the software baffling. The system seems to revert to the full tracklist (back to the letter 'A' each time you return to the menu). I find it impossible to select, artist, album etc - all the standard iPod functions.
    Maybe there is someone out there with instructions for how the iPod/USB functions are supposed to work.....???

    These Q's are covered at ************ dot com, under the gran turismo and quattroporte sections. That forum is more active for these modern cars it seems.

    Thanks - found an answer I think. System sucks essentially.

    In a nutshell...yes. I have '10 GT-C and the radio needs some work. I don't expect a firmware upgrade anytime soon.

    Bellisimo!
    I love the color. Don't love the stock wheels but that's a personal thing. Congrats.
