    Maserati Quattro porte

    The Quattroporte is more my style, the others whlie good performers; are more about bling bling than anything else

    Phantom exteriuh like fish egs, interiuh like suicide wrist red

    -drop it like its hot
    He came dancing across the water
    With his galleons and guns
    Looking for the new world
    In that palace in the sun
    On the shore lay Montezuma
    With his cocoa leaves and pearls

    Does the Quattroporte just weigh a ton less than the others? How is it that it only has 400 horses and still beats the others in acceleration and top speed?

    I am for the Maserati, although the Bentley and the Maybach are close.

    I am with everyone else for the Quattroporte. I have seen all of these except the new Flying Spur of course in person and the quattroporte is a lot smaller than the phantom especially. It's about the size of a C or E-class Mercedes. But anyway, I didn't think it was fair to put the Quattroporte in the same class as these other beasts that have 6.7 liter v12s and w12s when the Maserati has only a 'small' 4.2 liter v8. but as I said, Ive seen all 3 at a dealer as well as on the road, and the Maserati even sounds the nicest of all of them excet the Bentley. My votes for Quattroporte.

    i've seen the bentley in person, and it one hell of a FUGLY!!!! car. but yeah, i'd have to go with the maserati quattroporte, its new, and very sexy looking. the other two cars, bentley and maybach, have been here a while, and tho they are also at the top, its the Italian in the quattroporte that catches my eye.

    Phantom for me. The Quattroporte ain't playin' in that league.
    The Quattroporte weights 1860 kg. The Phantom weights 2530.

    The Quattroporte is not C or E class size (there is a huge difference in size between these two as well...). However it's in the S-class, 7-series and.. *shrugs* A8 category. So not comparable at all to a Royce or a Maybach or even the Bentley.

    I think it belongs there. it has a smaller engine but it alo is a much smaller car.

    it is none the less a super fast, super expensive, super luxurious, stylish super sedan...like all the others.
