As a trofeo owner I must say the car is as quick and precise as you need for everyday driving, I've owned bmw m3s and porsches the trofeo with the ferrari V8 twin turbo gives feeling of uniqueness that other brands did not, sure to be a future collectable. Thanks for the great videos.
I have to say that having owned a 2019 750 and a 2022 X5, there was absolutely no way that I could stare at those features again. The German's are everywhere and they're great cars but this Ghibli is great because it's so different. It's absolutely beautiful on both the interior and exterior. I've never owned a Dodge product so I don't see anything wrong with the switches. They feel like any other to me. Who uses window switches? Lol...That's something that I guess professional reviewers and extreme car enthusiasts would be bothered by but for most, I can't see it as a deal breaker. The design is timeless and the name comes with prestige so if you want to stand out in a sea of cars, this car fits the bill.
Maserati completely dropped the ball with their modern lineup. All the right variants coming out AFTER they've tarnished their reputation with lackluster diesels, cheap lease deals and the resulting lack of desire and SHOCKING depreciation... Levante Trofeo, Quattroporte Trofeo and Ghibli Trofeo should've been LAUNCH models! First stir up desire and attention, then feed them diesels, NOT the other way around... such a shame, I would take the previous gen Quattroporte GTS 4.7 any day over any M5, AMG or RS product of its day. Now sadly can't say the same.
it's so true, my uncle gots a last gen quattroporte 4.7L, it such a savage and nice sounding car and doesn't feels like any others, I've personally almost bought a ghibli sq4 back in italy, and my family stopped me because of the crazy depreciation even in the original hometown of this brand...now their V6 and V8 are dying in Asia because of the CO2 regulations, such a sad story....I can't even imagine if one day those petrol leader brands fully turns into electric...everything is gonna be so boring
Fantastic car and color, however I got really de-hyped when you mentioned the no carbon ceramic brakes and even more when you said the car has WINTER tyres (so it also has limited top speed and definitely affected acceleration).
carbon ceramic breaks good for track days don't think someone who buys this car is goin to track it or do top speed runs everyday if they are near the autobahn that is , this is simply a Italian 4dr gran tourer with a throaty v8 under the hood so cruising in comfort and flair is its main selling point
Carbon ceramics are not braking better, they are just lighter but who cares about a few more kilograms when we talk about a 2 tons luxury Sedan? Its just marketing, especially by german car manufacturers - no real world usage but it boosts the price tag, and you all eat it haha
@@nik7bkh965 I do not disagree, sometimes they are indeed marketing, however you could make a good use of them for a car of 2 tons and 330 kph top speed. They do not brake better in low temperatures, when optimal though, they last longer and brake a little better than the "ordinary" ones. Brakes are always a useful upgrade you can make to your car.
The smart longterm move is to wait a few years for these to depreciate a lot, then snatch one up when they come in off their initial leases. Then you can get Ferrari power and Italian styling for a hell of a lot less. (and less tech nannies to program around too)
Levante trofeo sounds angrier. But i would take this over German car just for extra Italian magic they put there (unti it breaks down but hey, if i have money to buy it i don’t care about running costs)
The only reason i have never wished to own maserati but love it is due to the compromised quality issues yet asking for a premium for their vehicles, I feel Masersti doesn't take themselves seriously...
Ceramic brakes, AWD, and carbon trim even on the dashboard in front of the passenger seat would make this car PERFECT. Replace the FCA plastic buttons with some good metal ones. Throw in some massage seats as well and it’s the perfect sedan.
I'm an owner of w211 e63amg. I love this car and I like lots of cars from this performance level but there is something about the Italian designs. Probably they are not that common as the Germans competitors and that one of thing make them even more special. I think everything which got gens from Ferrari it is already special. And is not always about the times. The are cars with times worse than others but still more special and fun to drive.
They’re desperately trying to appeal to the petrolhead’s heart over mind with this car, but it would take an unbelievable amount of persuasion to justify getting this over an M5.
If the brakes are brembo monos,you can swap the pads for carbon ceramics from hawk or any really.mono brakes are the easiest to replace pads, just need 2 screwdrivers ,and a thin metal rod to pop the pins out
It's aged well, I think, but not as good as the GranTurismo, which in my opinion is a car that just doesn't get old! The performance is very nice, but if you're paying M5 Comp money, you want M5 Comp performance, especially if the interior is not that special. The brake pedal issue is definitely not good. PS: 15:48 that hatch! 😍😛
I long for the day when choosing Maserati no longer means just buying design and engine while compromising on the rest of the car. By far the sexiest sedans on the market but sadly impossible to justify
A wonderful car I am seriously considering. Luxury and more than enough everyday performance for street driving, a pliant ride, beauty to savour, and a refreshing change from the Germans. What more could one ask for? Who buys a car for the plastics or screens anyway? Much rather have the Ferrari engine even at the cost of so so Dodge plastics! Won't be around for much longer either...
Since there are no naturally aspirated engines in maserati models, it lost a lot of soul it had in the past. In this segment there is a lot competion, i always liked maserati but i think most people interested for this segment would go for a car from Zuffenhausen, or at least from Germany :)
If they just put the same centre cluster screen and controls from the Gt into this car instead of that parts bin crap, it would be an unreal 4-door luxury sports sedan

That volume button isn't from FCA and that climate control isn't from FCA. The only things from FCA are the turn signal stocks and the minor buttons like those to turn your fog lights on and off. Those buttons are generic in every car (even in a car like a Rolls Royce). What's the big deal?
