Check out 'Life's Been Good To Me So Far' by Joe Walsh for a cautionary tale. 'My Maserati does 185, I lost my licence now I don't drive.

Only the new ones!! Old ones could pass everything except a garage. I think they are stunning looking machines and different to the usual Aston/Ferrari/Porsche clique.
If you follow the motoring press like me they get rated on looks, performance, interior quality etc but dynamically not quite there yet.
Then again Autocar tests cars to breaking point, not just day to day running.
As a warning they are all serious gas guzzlers, lower teens or worse if you push them hard. A 911 Turbo or Jag XKR will do well over 20 mpg, the Maserati equiv will be lucky to do 14....

I Love the looks and also think they're a bit different.

I'll let you no how I get on, with regards to mpg etc.
