    I've got a 575M and Cadillac Escalade. Now looking for a "sporty 4-door" as my everyday car. Thoughts on the '09 Q GTS Sport?

    I have seen it but have not driven it.It looks like a great car; really pretty. I am not a big fan of the silver carbon fiber looking trim which was in the one I saw. The wood trim and especially the Wenge and the Rosewood would be more to my taste. I have the Maserati GT and the auto transmission is the best. I encourage you to drive it first and see if it rides too hard for your area. Here in California the local roads are really rough so I find myself driving in comfort vs sport for a better ride. The Q you are looking at has reportedly a firm suspension without an adjustment. The next model down I believe has the adjustable suspension. Happy hunting.

    Great car! Has a firm suspension and great handling. The engine and transmission are incredible and the exhaust note (especially in sport mode) are incredible. What color combo are you looking at?

    Thanks guys for your feedback.

    I need a 4-seater and am going to drive both the GT S and Q GTS Sport. Probably go with black/black (only way the 2009 QA GTS Sport is offered at the moment).

    Note: I am formerly "fivefiveo" now more generic - "ChicagoVV"

    My wife has had no problems at all with her 07 QP. It has the ZF automatic transmission not the F1 type. She loves the car. I have to admit I like it also.
