    ...hehe!!! VERY Funny! I once drove a highly tuned 3200 GT from "MODENA-Autosport". Went like a rat - and was yellow!
    A member from the UK-Maserati Club once had a yellow 3200 also. He ALWAYS drives yellow cars - now he has a new Quattroporte V - IN YELLOW!!!!

    Ciao!

    nice. Thats the one. I will do some investigating. I was hoping for something closer to home but with the scarecity of the yellow ones, you have to take what is out there.

    I was just going to post the one that's at Naples Motorsports. I've only seen a handful of yellow Maseratis and this seems to be one of the nicest ones. Call and ask to speak w/ Rob, he's the general manager. I've bought 6 or 7 cars from them and they've always been great to deal with. I was actually supposed to be buying a Maserati from them last week but my current car got rear ended by a truck on my way home from work... about an hour after I finalized the deal to sell it!! :(

    Good luck.

    Hi Jason:

    Sorry about that! I just re-read your post and saw you were looking for a "Coupe"!

    At one time I was also looking for a 6 speed manual GT Coupe in Yellow. From what my local dealer here in Washington told me, they did some digging and found out that there were only about a 6 or 7 GT Coupes in Yellow that made it to the USA. Rare indeed!

    About as rare as a yellow Mercedes...

    Also for reference the official name is Giallo Granturismo.

    FWIW....just checked the Naplesmotorsports.com inventory and they have a total of three "yellow" w/ black leather Maseratis in stock:

    '02 Spider CC, 11k miles

    '06 GranSport, 2k miles

    '06 Coupe CC, 4k miles

    Looks like the two '06's might fit your criteria (?) with the exception of them all being Camiocorsa trannies.
