OK, we're being wiseguys but answer us this...
Is there ANY Maserati made that is worth ANYTHING four years after its introduction or beyond?
NOT!
Yes, there are some sexy things about them but their reliability sucks and their dealers are mostly shiesters.
Even at the corporate level their executives and employees are by far the most arrogant jerks you could ever meet.
And what do they have to be arrogant about?

NOTHING!
Their cars have excellent performance and some look sexy but for for the most part, their entire product line is irrelevant in every market they compete in.
And if you've ever owned one, you know the only way to experience a higher level of depreciation is to buy a boat!
