The Maserati GranTurismo is a classic touring coupe with modern styling that gives the famed Italian marque a true grand touring car. Suitable for everyday use, the Gran Turismo delivers excellent handling, a very sporty feel and a thrilling drive.

Designed by Pininfarina, the handsome coupe is not a full four-seater but there is room in back for two kids or two flexible and tolerant adults. The GranTurismo is not just show and no go. Powered by the classic Maserati 4.2-liter V8, it delivers 405 horsepower and a widely spread 339 lb-ft of torque. Top speed is reported to be 178 mph with 0-62 mph expected in 5.2 seconds.

The Gran Turismo offers the long-legged refinement and reserve to go with the more than usually descriptive name.
