Baby maser QP - mule shots

First Spy Shots: Maserati's Baby Quattroporte Mule

I'd love to see a smaller QP. The current QP V is so big...

[SENNA1]

Not bad at all

[Redmatt75]

Looks good (as Masers tend to), but it doesn't look all that much smaller than the 'full fat' one

Would be interesting to see them side by side...

[divadiva]

Very nice. Always been a huge fan of Masers in general (as you know, Al), but particularly taken with the Quattroporte.

[73GTVJim]

Probably still out of my price range sadly!

Maser's are just so cool.

[Snokio]

will be interesting to see what engines it will have, i suspect they will use slightly smaller engines (V6) and maybe even a diesel?

if you look at the wheels, they look offset with the arches, so it looks like its sitting on a shorter platform and in turn, a different body will be fitted (or might be just a funny angle?) Windscreen looks modded to around the A pillar, (picture 4) so looks like it might also be slightly narrower?

Just a complete guess

aiming at the Jag XF / 5 Series?

Looks superb, the more details and photos out about this the better!! Keep them coming.

[Alfamack]

The detail in the piece says it will look different to this, this is just a cut down QP body, probably on the intended chassis, hence the offset wheels.

In moments of madness I look at used QP in the classifieds under 30k

What could go wrong?

[Snokio]

yeah, holding their price okay, same with the GT

I so want one!

Yes, me too.....and I know it's a moment of madness when I'm doing it!

Seem to be holding prices at around that level now too which is interesting but your last question is the killer!

[alfavirign]

Plus the fact they are the length of a barge and I live in a dead end road .Having said that a guy near me owned an old Caddy I guess you get used to 17 point turns

[Al Faromeo]

Maser QP V is too big for me.
But I'd very happily settle for a nice QP IV.
But y'all know that, now don't ya?

This sizing down exercise, I believe, is a good step

[symon]

I think the QP looks a bit bland considering its heritage and how much it costs...

[stuartmunn]

It looked stunning when it came out, but hasnt grown old so well... needed an update before now, so the new version is overdue...

[symon]

Don't get me wrong, it is a nice car, but it could have been so much nicer...

The rear lights look like they were taken from a Rover 400, and the front just looks bland.

The Maserati GT though, that is a seriously nice looking car.
