Maserati_GranCabrio_MC

Maseratis I believe are one of the most under rated cars currently on the Australian market.

Their design and styling is very subtle compared to their sister company Ferraris cars.

But they still are extremely quick performance cars, but with an increase in luxury.

After spending time watching and observing the current model GrandTurismo run at a couple of track days recently I was  impressed just how good they look in action.

Now there is an ever sexier version coming to the Australian market.

The Grancabrio MC convertible is about to hit our shores and how good does it look.
