#NYIAS: Do Our FIRST Real-Life Pics Of The All-New Maserati Levante Have You Falling In LOVE?

Until now the all-new Maserati Levante has been a bit of a toss up if you ask us. That's because the studio pictures we've seen left us feeling a bit lukewarm.

I recently had the chance to see images from a friend of mine who works in the New Jersey-based North American headquarters where there is a black one sitting in the public showroom — it changed my mind about its exterior styling REAL quick.

And now we're bringing you what we think are easily the best photos of the all-new Levante models at the 2016 New York Auto Show (NYIAS). Given that there were two colors in attendance, white and gunmetal, we want you to observe both.

In addition, make sure to scope out the interior. According to Agent 001 it features a silk interior — for us this is a first aside from the custom Rolls-Royce Phantom that featured a silk interior.

Let us know what you think, below!

Nope. Not feeling it. I like the front-end, and that's it. Maserati interiors these days leave me cold.

I find the design graceless, tacky, and dated looking. I feel the same way about the Giulia. And to think this came from the folks who did the Ghibli.

Both of my wives looked better than either of these two

Surely they were not asking about falling in love with a car- were they?

The Levante will soon become the "official vehicle" of Bravo's "Real Housewives" franchise!

The "launch model" should be in "Diamond White Metallic" with a Mocha leather interior. I'm sure enterprising dealers will already have a "gold package" in the works for Northern NJ, Nassau County, and Miami/Dade customers.

Its ugly, but it will become Maserati's top seller in short order!

I dig it and so will the masses. This will become their best seller. Easily.

Not feeling that interior. It looks dated already. It's like they started from the beginning because this is their first SUV, especially, coming from a luxury brand like Maserati. I guess what I'm trying to say is that dash design would've worked 5 years ago, but not today.

Not feeling it at all.

Certainly better looking than a Macan or Cayenne. I really like the interior as well. Would take it over a Ghibli.

I rather like it, but why the tiny slivers of wood inside, like little splinters? If there's going to be nice wood veneers, then go for it and leave out some plastic. An elegant Italian SUV is quite a concept, and this is not at all bad, but it needs to be seen on the road to convince fully.
