Favourite pre-facelift QP pictures

[mowlas]

Here's a selection of pictures that I believe underscore the enduring classicism of the QP's design... Please do add any favourites to the thread.

The second picture could almost have been taken in the 70's! Outstanding...

The last one is just lovely....I love the new GT S but for me the original just looks so much prettier....Makes you want to jump in and drive.

what wheels is on the 2nd pic

They are the 2008 QP Sport GTS 20inch wheels. Slightly darker and wider version of the earlier 2007 Sport GT wheels. Have seen quite a few facelift-QP customers choose this option also.

I guess they are a nod to the design of the MC12 wheels...

Agreed, supreme understanding about car design at this level have Maserati.....is there a better looking saloon ever put on the road?

A future modern day classic. The QP looks good from every angle in my book.....despite what Clarkson thinks about the rear lights...!

 

[GG]

I think the rear is the best looking, the front is understated.

Attached is a comparision with another leading brand, the QP feels very compact, but as you can see, its a big car.

Beauty and the beast GG ?

A future modern day classic. The QP looks good from every angle in my book.....despite what Clarkson thinks about the rear lights...!

See, I didnt know he'd said that, but on the early ones, I do think the only let down is the rear lights. But then, that was the case on the 4200/GS too.

Personally, a black QP with the slightly coloured shadow chrome 7-spoke 20 inch wheels......it doesnt get much better IMO.

The Chrysler, Maserati does not have the same 'brand recognition' as it.

Also, mention Maseratri, people think, 'no room in the back'.

Odd really as the New 300C is supposed to be the underpinnings of the new Baby QP.
