Maserati Grancabrio Takes Hot to the Next Level
Robyn Currie — September 2, 2009 — Autos
Maserati is one of the biggest brands in luxury cars, and now it got even more luxurious. Meet the GranCabrio, exactly like the GranTurismo, but it's a convertible (yay!!) and a four seater (yay yay!!).
Here’s the necessary specifications, according to TopGear.com, the GranCabrio “is powered by the same 4.7-litre V8 as in the GranTurismo S, putting out 433bhp at a revvy 7,000rpm, along with 362lb ft of torque."
And fully expect to hit 60mph in about five and half seconds. This bad boy won’t be cheap, but come on, its a Maserati GranCabrio! Oh, and did I mention that it is oh so pretty?
