it's $112k base price in the US, and also you're 10000000% leasing it so no need to worry about long term reliability lol. interior on these is super nice, the FCA switchgear is here and there but the quality of the leather and overall interior vibe are that of a expensive car.

@@myemailiscool Sorry but I strongly disagree except for the leasing portion. Ghibli's interior is a shit when you are comparing it to other comparable low 6 figure price point models - it is clear that Maserati has not put much thought into the interior design. When the first model came out, you weren't event be able to put a CD in straight. Although newer, similarly priced Levante is far better designed, using similar quality materials for interior. Also FCA parts bin items are not only known for bad reliability, but feeling not tidy and very cheap when operating the buttons and knobs.

Wait about 4 or 5 years, when they start going for about $20k on the used market 😄

And before someone goes all literal, Ghiblis are absolutely notorious for depreciating like a rock. This was tongue in cheek to point that out

I agree with Park, The interior is that of a toyota camry, or Honda Accord. It is far from the level of Mercedes, BMW, Audi whom are its main competitors.

I think you will like the videos from Jason cammisa

The balanced speaking time of the two and seamless transitions are impeccable.

I would kinda like to hear and see more from Carston.

@@Spiros219 have you watched that one TH episode with Jason? They were such a great trio with the Challenger Hellcat Redeye (or demon I don’t remember exactly) v Camaro ZL1 v Mustang GT500

Yeah I wanna know too

Haha was curious about that too!

According to the end of the tracks it was a mustang😂

Maserati shouldn't be competing with BMW or Mercedes. It should be competing against Austin Martin and Bentley. The fact it's not considered competitive with these brands is a major issue for the company.

@@KevinSmith-qi5yn - That's all in your mind. Maserati's haven't been priced at the level of Astons or Bentley's for a very long time. Building cars at that price point would have encroached on Ferrari sales as well which FIAT didn't want. A Granturismo was priced at the same level as a V8 Vantage, but the V12 Vantage, DB9, DBS, Rapide etc were all a lot more expensive. Just the same for the Continental. What's the cheapest new Aston you can buy? Generally £130/140k. Bentley's are far north of £150k. Cheapest new Maserati = £60k. BMW/Audi/Merc are who they're competing with now. They want high volume sales.

@@KevinSmith-qi5yn Maserati has always been between Fiat and Ferrari.

It is beautiful

?

Totally agree. Going down market did nothing positive for the brand other than destroy its reputation as an exotic Italian sports car company.

you make a good point.

It goes more against porche, Alfa Romeo goes against Bmw Mercedes Audi

Porsches will last. Anyone, anyone who buys a Mas is trying to get eyes on him and it’s not about buying a good car.

@@prism8289 porche are the same, only the aircooled ones last, if you want a car to last you buy a Lexus or a Toyota

Also I think it's because those are all wheel drive, where as the Giulia and Ghibli are only rear wheel.

And the reason more people are buying those vehicles is because they keep taking features from other vehicles and making excuses for not including them. Why buy a sedan for the same money with fewer features? They're stripping other vehicles of features and then pretending to be shocked when people don't buy the shit.

But why intentionally neuter the sedans? An exciting personality is the only chance this car has against the competition.

@@The_Stanman I swear car manufacturers follow markets when they should lead them. They build sedans for older people because older people are buying them. Instead of thinking "hey let's bring young people into sedans by making them more appealing to them" they just shrug and go "screw it, retirement spec. Make it beige!"

​@@wp8286 LOL no thats not how it works, awd would make it 1000× less animated.

Too bad Saab stopped

Ha, came here just to say this. Thomas is right, too.

I hate what Chrysler has done with Maserati

@@satsumagt5284 Chrysler didn’t do anything with Maserati.

FCA was cost saving until recently. They are the only ones out of debt out of the big three now they can spend more money

There is no bigger platform and component sharing auto manufacturer than VW. Touareg to Cayenne. Same platform, suspension, transmission, general electronics and AWD systems. At 3 times the selling price. That is an insult to all Porsche owners.

@@philipciantar4824 That's a rather disingenuous statement for the modern automotive industry. Staying within VW group as an example, a Panamera will not drive the same as a Continental GT despite being on the same platform, and even going as far as having similar powertrain options (VW/Audi's TTV8 may as well be the equivalent of Toyota's V6 in how frequently it appears across its product lineup) Suspension and basic chassis architecture are not the be-all end all of how a vehicle ultimately feels. There is still refinement left off the table, be it NVH, ride quality, handling, and design that will warrant actual buyers into looking at the upper brands. Development is already as expensive enough as is, and competent platform sharing allows these automakers to create distinctly different experiences without expending mountains of capital they will need to plan future products, and services while making enough margin to pay their workforce. These are businesses after all.

It’s a ghibli, they kinda are tame. Doesn’t matter if it’s a trofeo or not. You want something aggressive and mean looking? Get the GranTurismo 👌🏼

@@ImTehRiZe The ghibli was never meant to look aggressive or compete with m5, e63 and so on. Having owned an sq4, the idea behind it is more of a bridge between luxury and simplistic sportiness. The person shopping for an m5 will never look at this but an older rich person will, because it's a car he'd take his family shopping with, or would go to a comfy road trip. He wouldn't go to a track with one or try to get performance out of it.

@@mariosconstantinou3631 That’s basically what I‘ve said

If this simple don’t know what’s not

It is milder than I would expect the tridents to look like. If I have plans to restyle the ghibli will be putting the prefacelift ghibli nose and a custom butt.

That's almost m5 comp money.

@@yuriteixeira5816 but as they said... This is more fun to drive than that M5 comp.... So what would be the car to buy? The Uber competent Beemer that is capable well beyond reason and care for your driver's license or this...? Fun at more normal speeds and more soul.

@W0o0dy I would entirely avoid this car and rather get a cheaper fun to drive car and a m4 or something Or just get a 911 and be done with it. Where I live, you can't do "fun" unless you go to a track.

@@W0o0dy People keep saying that, I think it's very harsh. Have an M5 base in the family, that car isn't "boring". It's a beast to drive and thrilling. If you want that drama get the M comp exhaust or akrapovic.

@@drhassan6892 my point was more that the M5 is not THIS engaging at normal speeds. A Maserati is pretty good at serving up fun en theater at lower speeds so you could enjoy the sportiness more often.

You get it!

Nagi-> Too expensive and not enough world interest. ERGO: You would be one of the few new car buyers of this vehicle. You will ALSO notice the rather steep depreciation of your capital. I hope the stingy cheap crap of the FIAT parts bin will keep you (your words) in the customer satisfaction.

@@wimschweer6738 you are certainly right. There is no logical reason to buy such a car. Then again, logic would have very little to do with it, in my case. I wouldn't be the first nor the last fool to buy a car with his heart instead of his mind.

True.
