Random thread

So, I bought a 2002 Maserati Spyder Cambriocorsa today... much less expensive than my beloved 2008 V8V and too good to pass up with 27K miles, new clutch, maintenance, etc. Logged on at the Maserati forum and literally (well, figuratively) heard crickets chirping...

i have learned so much here; the forum is pretty vibrant. Not sure what to expect on the Italian side. Def doesn’t look like they have a Redpants equivalent, which is bad news for me...

Anyone else here a current or former Maser owner? Happy to take the conversation over to the other forum!

I highly recommend you pick up a copy (published by Maserati Spa). Check it out on Amazon...a beautiful little book!

Maser's are pretty great so to speak. Had a 06' Quattroporte F1 and a Gran Turismo. Loved them, but constantly worried about the next 4k bill at the dealership. GT wasn't bad at all.

Forum--- well you kinda can forget action like this Aston one. Its crickets mostly. Few people consistent, but most go on there who are first time buyers and are looking for repair help, or fixing things like the dash controls melting. Then go away. I gave up.

I hope you enjoy it, there is information out there Maserati Life, and a few others, but you really have to search to find it.

No pics as yet - will probably fly to PA next weekend to pick up and drive back to VA. Car is yellow (I know-crazy color) with a really unique two-tone tan/brown interior...
