Maserati Quattroporte vs. Bentley Continental GT

I am a guy in my late 20s deciding between a 2009 Maserati Quattroporte(4.2 Auto) and a 2006 Bentley Continental GT.

The Maserati has about 24,000 on the odometer and about 40,000 on the CGT. The QP is going for $62k firm while I can negotiate the CGT down to about $72,000.

I’m looking for something reliable and at the same time fun to drive. I own a business in a image-heavy industry(especially here in NYC) and often clients won’t sign with you unless they see that you’ve ‘been there and done that’.
I want to come off as mature and sophisticated without looking arrogant. The extra attention when pulling up to places like clubs or getting a compliment from a friend/girl would not hurt too

Will only drive the car when needed(once or twice a week), since taking the taxi in NYC is faster and more convenient. Probably 3,000 miles a year should be plenty.

Reliability is a major factor, the car with the least amount of potential issues would be ideal.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
