Maserati MC20

That’s what I did

 

AND we have the first one on BaT.

FWIW, my MC20 that was supposed to be delivered in Q1 (USA delivery) is now projected for a May production and July delivery.

Steve Sutcliff auto express review is over rhe top complimentary! His favorite car over competitors from ferrari, Mac, lambo, Porsche! I always agree w him in past so looking good

 

Wow what a crazy review

 

Sutcliff really liking this is quite telling. He is a tough nut to crack. If it is as good as he says, Maserati might just be reinventing the mid engine GT. Most everything mid engine on the market is so hard-edged it is to the point that one would believe if it’s mid-engined and exotic and at least $200k, there is only one way it can be, but that does not at all appear to be the case now. If it sells well and this sort of, and I hate to use this but not sure how else to put it, ‘nerf’ yet still extremely fast and capable and be driven all day, I have to wonder re other makers responses. Rattle-your-teeth-out fast-loud-and-angry at about this price point is done by everyone and anyone. Cars are all so fast it implies the question, what is the point?

 

Exactly!
Bora vs the 'alternatives': Countach to Pantera & all others in between!

Luckily, it looks as if the audiance has grown up a little by 2022

 

I look at it as a discounted 720s - the comfortable exotic.

 

Great to see these reviews come online. Sutcliff is a serious journalist and his high praise is exciting to hear. There is very consistent critique on the engine/exhaust sound - really hoping that good aftermarket options are available shortly.

The MC20 is being compared and contrasted to a lot of other mid-engine cars. A comparison that I haven’t heard but that I think is relevant is to the 4.0L Boxster GT4 and upcoming GT4RS. Some may say those cars are more track oriented but Porsche consistently does a great job of making all of their cars civil to use as street cars. The GT4/4RS will be down about 100HP but are also quite a bit less expensive.

the gt4rs can't be compared because they are impossible to get, I actually think the market value of them could be more expensive than the mc20

to me Maserati have got everything right with this car.

To quote:

...After a fair amount of seat time the beauty of the MC20 offering is clear. Here is a more elegant sort of Italian, mid-engined supercar, that melds genuine GT ability with all the outright performance you might hope for, yet in a particularly usable, friendly and involving way. It’s quite a unique sort of concept, perhaps not readily apparent on paper, but one that really gets under your skin once you’ve experienced it.

MASERATI IS FINALLY BACK after two generations (i.e. 40 yrs).
Congrats to all the genuine fans of the Trident!

 

MC20 impossible to get right now too!

 

Love 'told u so'. Go for it!

 

As usual I have NO idea what you are on about!

It may help refreshing your recollection that I drive a K and a Bora not a 4C

My general views on the MC20 can be found in a prior post reproduced below:

 

Given the way he said he never really understood what any Maserati was supposed to be it didn't sound like he's driven many very many vintage Maseratis.
He certainly likes this one though! I wonder what his size is?

You should let him have a drive in your Bora. How great would it be if he became a cheerleader for that car.

 

I love it. I'm a closet Maserati lover. I really hope it's a great success

 

We now have within the Stellantis group the MC20 and the Alfa 4C. I hope it stays that way, two great flagships. Two really great, appealing and technologically convincing sports cars. And the two have one thing in common: they both stand out clearly with their beautiful design. And I think beautiful design is one of the main features to be able to sustainably establish itself as a classic.

 

4C is out of production.
