In these following areas, which car succeeds?

1) Maintenance Costs
2) Reliability
3) Rear leg room
4) Overall comfort

 

Depends on the year of manufacture of each one. Generally, hear more horror stories with repairs / maintain of the Maser. Rear legroom is a joke in both quite frankly, yet the Bentley has a touch more as I recall. Comfort goes to the Bentley of course.

 

Maintenance is not cheap on the Bentley but I feel that is expected on both cars.

I would do the Bentley on reliability alone.

 

Both cars are expensive to maintain but that should be expected when buying an exotic. I bought a GranTurismo last summer brand new and haven't had any issues with it. You don't hear as many horror stories with the new year models but generally Bentley isn't pegged with reliability issues like the Italians! Rear leg room on both cars is minimal but if you are putting the kids in the back to drive down the street to dinner it isn't too horrible. Comfort probably goes to the Bentley. It has more of an upscale/luxurious feel, higher quality interior, etc whereas the Mas is more sporty/rough. With that being said the seats on my Mas are stunning and I couldn't be happier. Good luck with your choice!

 

Drive my 05 GTC every day (50 mile commute) - fantastic is all i have to say. The rear seats are a joke for leg room as i am 6'4", but i bought the car for me as I rarely have kids back there. I cannot comment on the Maserati, but Winter's Coming and my GTC will be going out every day

And yes it is expensive to maintain.

 

I suspect you posed the same thread and question on the Maserati forum? Since I did buy the Bentley I have so say I prefer it overall. I agree with Ryan that the sport verses luxury is a factor to consider. If you need leg room for kids or adults on a regular basis consider a four door as both makers have them. Cars of the same year are not of equal value I expect the Bentley being more costly to purchase.

Both cars are dream cars.
