I think that GP has too many chrysler parts for my taste. I looked at it before the Panny. Front end looks HOT but rear end looks like any midrange japanese import.
S-class coupe is a very nice car all around (eventhough I dont like the brand)
Last year, I was looking for a new DD. Seriously considered the Maser GT. Couldn't believe the price cuts they were offering on units in-stock. Depreciation must be absolutely staggering on ordered cars. The QP and GT are real lookers, but AWD swayed me... ended up with the E63S.
I have owned a Maserati coupe when they first came back a Q Port and Gran Turismo, and my girlfriend is getting a GT convertible soon. I lost my shirt when I got rid of them, I was still drinking the Ferrari kool aid back then and fell for the whole 4 door Ferrari thing. Great engine sound but that's about it but they have updated the car in the last few years so perhaps they have fixed what I considered the cars flaws. Good luck with it!
Here are some pix. Will be doing some more work to it.
Quick review on the car:
Power - tons, spins tires with traction control on easily
Handling - Pretty good for car this size, but not as good as Pan, it just doesnt feel as connected and steering wheel is too big, driver seat not as "hugging" as the pan
Interior - fit and finish is not great, some materials are top notch, others very average.
Technology - The chrysler sourced Info Center has a cheap look to it. Fonts/Colors not as refined or upscale as Pan. Back entertainment center completely useless, only has USB and RCA input, not touch screen. Rear luxury seating is comfortable, but subpar compared to competitors in terms of functionality
Overall - still need to get used to the car, i dont really know how to describe this car, it tries to be 2 very different cars, and not very good at either of them. Pan on the other hand, does luxury and sport very well. I do like it so far, as it sounds great on the outside and you do feel special driving it.

I've always loved the looks of the GT MC coupes. Scared to drive one for fear I would buy one on the spot.

How are you enjoying the E63? Always wanted to experience an AMG car...maybe I will get one of those for my next ride...
I understand the OP - there are so few choices other than a Panamera after you have owned one - I am in the same boat - I want a different car but have no idea what to get . The QP and Rapide are my two choices - probably will opt for the ergonomically challenged Rapide next.

Exactly. IMO, there is nothing out there that will provide the same overall package that I've seen. I'm keeping mine until I find something definitively better. That said, I'm still very happy with my PT-especially with the exhaust and ECU mods I've added. If I made a change now, I'd go for a sports car. A new GT3-if I could find one or something similar might work for a while.
