    I've said it before, but they nailed this one. It looks great.

    Power COULD use a little boost though :)

    This car looks incredible. I disagree with a previous poster about the wheels, I love the trident design (wheels look to be swiped directly from the Birdcage concept of a couple years ago). I even like the taillights... the package is just soooooooo cohesive; in terms of styling I think I far prefer this to the 599 (I know I know, two completely different animals and one should not compare, but...). This is definitely a good direction. Power could be up though, as Audi is coming out with their A5 coupe which will have a 4.2 V8 and 420 hp...

    Looks excellent! The interior in red reminds me of the 456 for some reason

    I like it! Looks very big. The hood is very longgg! Should be decent competition for the higher class GT cars.

    Just what we need, another Burghermeister coupe for the plushbottomed yahoos.

    ...Not loving the wheels, nor the pre-Darlingtoned wheel wells.

    Anyone have a link to spec sheet?

    I like it.. just not a big fan of the taillights or wheels. The front is very aggressive looking.

    That new Maser looks very nice, especially the interior.

    The "fish mouth" is an interesting design feature. I'm not sure about that part of the design, but I'm getting picky now. I would have preferred more of an MC12-like design ie: lower down with a more slanted hood and tapered leading edges towards a single large inlet rather than having the second one in the chin.

    To all of us old guys, we instantly recognize the link to older Maseratis, in particular the A6GCS, one of the most beautiful cars of any era. To see this car in person is amazing, and I think this will apply to the new coupe as well.

    So for me, the grill ROCKS!!!!!!!
    I just wish it came with a manual shift.

    i like it! personally, i kind of like the taillights, even though they are stolen from a minivan. it looks very agressive, but i'm not so sure of the way the front end kind of droops over the mesh thing. i would love to see one in the flesh (or aluminum or whatever)

    the rear looks a mazda 626
    the front...same family as the astons..the jaguars...
    looks very boring and that is why they will be 1/2 the price within the next 2 years...wait the same happens to the jags or the astons...must be a reason
    have you seen how many unsold maseratis at you local dealer...
    it will be the same with the new model

    NICE! Having just sold my 4200 this week, I must admit that's got me tempted to go with another trident, although I agree the rear lights do look like they they were borrowed from a Toyota.

    Sweet. It'll be at $65k used before it's out of warranty.

    You know that's funny, I think the front end looks like a 599 without the "holes" and the back looks like an Aston Martin.
