Hi Folks, I'm wondering if you can help me out here. I'm trying to figure out what the main differences are between the 2007 QP models with the new fully automatic transmission. Quattroporte Quattroporte Sport GT & Quattroporte Executive GT Thank in Advance
The Sport GT version of the Quattroporte was introduced at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2005. It features a reworked transmission, exhaust, 20 inch wheels, suspension modifications, and special interior and exterior accents including a mesh grille. The Sport GT S version of the Quattroporte was introduced at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2007. It features a revised suspension, 20 inch wheels, and larger rear tires for improved handling. The brakes received iron/aluminum rotors for greater fade resistance. Various interior upgrades include alcantara and carbon fiber accents. The Executive GT version of the Quattroporte was introduced at the North American International Auto Show in January 2006. It is based on a special Neiman-Marcus version, with 19 inch ball-polished wheels and an alcantara suede interior roof lining. Other features include chrome side and front grilles and a wood-trimmed steering wheel. Included standard 4WD GT version is a Maserati comfort pack with ventilated, heating, massaging rear seats, retractable wood rear tables, and curtain shades on the rear windows. If you are an enthusiast, try the 06 DuoSelect [manual F1 transmission from Ferrari] instead of the Automatic. Much more fun than the automatic with 'tiptronic' type shifting. Hope this helps.
The 07 also has the DuoSelect which is what I drive... I like the shifting for the most part... It is a tad quirky if the RPMs aren't kept up. I like the automode when just cruising from point A to B but I often put it into manual when its just me (no wife in the car)... Tony...............
