    Anyone have a Maserati Levante ? If so how is it? I am thinking about getting one as a second car when I am not using the Ferrari.

    Driven it and own a 2017 Ghibli. It's basically a tall, boosted up Ghibli. The Ghibli is much more engaging to drive as it closer to the ground and has a lower center of gravity. The Levante is huge on the inside comparably so for the same price it's hard to pass up.

    Handling is great for an SUV and I wouldn't get anything less than an S with the 400+ HP. Much better than the German counterparts in sportiness as I've owned several modern Germans in the past couple of years.

    My wife really likes her Levante S. I honestly dislike driving all crossovers and SUV's, but it's really a pretty decent tall, practical, sporty car. I recently towed a 4x8 UHaul six hours to my AMP racecar garage, and it performed beautifully. Corners well, and great in inclement weather, too. The longer stopping distances take some adjustment coming from an FF daily driver, and it could use a V8 instead of a turbocharged V6. The exhaust note is also somewhat artificial in Sports mode. But no regrets and it allowed us to keep our business with Ferrari Maserati of Atlanta which was a plus.

    Agreed, it's the sportiest large SUV. Till the Lambo arrives at least. Great feel in the interior too.

    LOVE IT!!!....Had a Cayenne , not even close, Maserati SUV is so much better....its my wife's car and she is not a car person, and everyday she says how much she loves it......Its sounds like a little ferrari with the exhaust valves open in sport mode....We have 8000 miles on it with no problems, ......we have the base model which is plenty fast, I can't imagine the S model how much fun that would be. One thing for sure, you won't see to many around.....If you want to blend in with the crowd, then get a Cayenne or Merc. or BMW.....If you want a Darn nice looking SUV, the Levente hit all the marks.
