2007 Maserati Quattroporte Executive GT For Drivers With a Family

I was introduced to Maserati at a particularly bad time in the company's often troubled history. It was 1989, the year Maserati joined Chrysler to launch the Chrysler TC by Maserati. It was a match made in hell. Chrysler was an up again, down again American car company trying to rise up again, at least in prestige, by mating with a legendary Italian luxury brand. Maserati was a car company so down on its financial luck, it was willing to jump into a joint venture with anybody, including Chrysler.

The Chrysler TC by Maserati was the unhappy progeny of that unfortunate union. It was supposed to be a "halo" car, a sales magnet to pull buyers into Chrysler's showrooms. But it was little more than a workaday Chrysler K-car wearing costume jewelry. It did nothing for Chrysler's prestige and even less for Maserati's bottom line. It went out of production in 1991.

Should read: "For Drivers With a Family... and $$$"

The Quattroporte is the most beautiful sedan in the world. It's actually a bargain, when you consider how it's so much cooler than a Flying Spur or Phantom.

I would almost sell my soul for this car!!! The 2003 Caddy Sixteen Concept and AM Rapide Concept as the only two exceptions, it is the most beautiful car in the world!!!
