2017 Maserati GranTurismo Used Price Estimates

First and foremost, the 2017 Maserati GranTurismo is a beautifully styled touring coupe. The fact that this generation has remained in its current form for the better part of a decade is a testament to its timeless Italian design. Add in a powerful V8 engine from Ferrari and the soundtrack that accompanies it, and the GranTurismo's appeal is almost irresistible. Almost.

But the GranTurismo has fallen behind the times in a number of ways. A quick peek at the list of standard or available features will reveal a lack of modernity. Advanced safety and convenience features are nowhere to be found. The infotainment system is dreadfully outdated, and even a rearview camera is missing. In terms of performance, the GranTurismo should satisfy most driving enthusiasts, but those who list athleticism near the top of their priorities will find there are better choices.

It's very likely we're at the end of the road with the Maserati GranTurismo. With the unveiling of the Alfieri concept a few years ago, we've been expecting a replacement for quite some time. If you love the GranTurismo's current design, though, 2017 may be your last chance.

The 2017 Maserati GranTurismo is a two-door coupe with seating for four. A convertible model is covered in a separate review. Three trim levels are offered: Sport, MC and MC Centennial. Each version features a Ferrari-sourced 4.7-liter V8 (454 horsepower and 384 pound-feet of torque) and a six-speed automatic transmission with manual control via paddle shifters. Power is sent to the rear wheels, and all-wheel drive is not available.

The Sport trim's standard feature highlights include 20-inch wheels, adaptive xenon headlights, front and rear parking sensors, power-folding and auto-dimming mirrors, automatic wipers, adaptive suspension dampers, a sport exhaust, leather upholstery, heated front seats, a navigation system, Bluetooth and a Bose surround-sound system with satellite radio and an iPhone interface. Options are generally limited to exterior and interior trim and color materials.

The MC trim adds some carbon-fiber bodywork, a unique front spoiler (eliminating the front parking sensors), a nonadaptive sport suspension, carbon-fiber interior trim and a simulated suede headliner. At the top of the range, the MC Centennial tacks on more carbon-fiber exterior treatments, a stiffer suspension, carbon-fiber seat frames and distinctive interior trim.

The 2017 Maserati GranTurismo is a delight for all the senses. The thrilling acceleration provided by the Ferrari-built 454-horsepower V8 engine offers an accompaniment of an exhaust howl that sends chills up your spine and a smile on your face. It's like Pavlovian conditioning for car enthusiasts. A 6-speed automatic transmission is the only one offered, but its seamless operation proves no impediment to the thrills of this grand touring machine. In Normal drive mode, the Skyhook suspension quells road imperfections in a way that makes it the ideal Italian sports car for loafing along the coast. Switch to Sport mode to change the GranTurismo's attitude to a more aggressive posture. We love the feel of the direct, hydraulic-assist steering, and the race-bred Brembo brakes (6-piston in front) erase speed with confidence. As sharp and responsive as it is, the GranTurismo always maintains a sense of grace, polish and refinement.

THE SPORT BUTTONFrom the looks of it the 2017 Maserati GranTurismo should be sporty enough, but with a press of the Sport button you open up the exhaust, quicken the shifts and sharpen the Skyhook adjustable suspension for a firmer ride and sharper handling.SHIFT PADDLESLots of cars come with shift paddles these days, but few have the Italian flair and design as the ones behind the steering wheel of the GranTurismo. And here, art meets science as the paddles shift gears with a simple click.

The 2017 GranTurismo's front and rear bucket seats are separated by a center console, and the front seats power forward to ease access to the surprisingly usable rear seats. The triple-insulated power-convertible top on the drop-top GranTurismo deploys in just 24 seconds, at speeds up to 20 mph, and rear rollover bars pop up to protect occupants in case of a crash. Special Edition models get unique seats with red contrast stitching and red tridents embroidered on the headrests, carbon-fiber trim, and that special-edition plaque. The trunk is big enough for two golf bags, or a couple of overnight bags.

Even though the Maserati GranTurismo has been around for nearly a decade, the design isn't dated thanks to the classic Pininfarina lines. Its long hood and short rear deck with its integrated spoiler give it a classically sporty look, and the projecting grille and trident logo are equally classic Maserati. Special-edition models incorporate Extracampionario Grigio Lava paint on coupes and Extracampionario Rosso Italiano red paint on convertibles. Other special touches include a carbon-fiber hood painted the same color as the rest of the car, exterior carbon accents like the front splitter, door handles and mirrors, and specially painted brake calipers.

The "base" 2017 GranTurismo is the Sport, while the base convertible model is simply known as the GranTurismo Convertible. All of them, regardless of model, come with a Ferrari-crafted engine, 20-inch wheels and Brembo performance brakes. There is also an interior awash in leather, a power-operated soft top on convertibles, and amenities like a navigation system, Bose surround-sound system, integrated HomeLink garage-door opener, and Bluetooth wireless connectivity. Convertible models also include an automatic rollbar-deployment system.

One area where the GranTurismo shows its age is in modern amenities such as blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto or radar-based cruise control, none of which are available on the Maserati. You can't even get a rearview camera even though a color navigation system is standard equipment, although front and rear parking sensors are offered. The multiple models increase the luxury and/or sport levels, and being an Italian luxury car, you can also get unique paint colors, various wood or carbon-fiber accents, and interior/exterior treatments. GranTurismo MC models are more performance-oriented with lower and stiffer suspension and aerodynamic enhancements.

There's only one engine available for the 2017 Maserati GranTurismo: a Ferrari-built 4.7-liter V8 work of art. With 454 horsepower (444 in base convertible models) routed to the rear wheels through a 6-speed automatic transmission, it's especially intoxicating when the exhaust system’s bypass-valve opens above 3,000 rpm. The gas-guzzler tax is proof that fuel economy took a back seat to smooth, responsive and strong power delivery. The GranTurismo's 6-speed automatic transmission also offers a Sport mode for quicker shifts, a Manual setting for full manual gear selection via steering-column-mounted paddle shifters, and even an Ice mode for low-grip situations, forcing the transmission to start in second gear.4.7-liter V8 454 horsepower @ 7,000 rpm (444 in base convertible models) 384 lb-ft of torque @ 4,750 rpm (376 in base convertible models) EPA city/highway fuel economy: 13/20 mpg (convertible), 13/21 mpg (coupe) Note: Due to changes in EPA testing to more effectively reflect real-world conditions, some 2017 models show slightly lower fuel-economy scores than their 2016 versions.

It should come as no surprise that these are expensive cars. When you wrap in the destination charge and the gas-guzzler tax, the Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for a 2017 Maserati GranTurismo coupe is more than $ 135,000, while convertibles start at nearly $ 150,000. Of course options push the price higher, and opting for the Centennial edition with all the trimmings will set you back more than $ 180,000 for the coupe or nearly $ 200,000 for the convertible. That's a lot, but competitive with the likes of the Audi R8, BMW 650 and Mercedes-Benz S550 Coupe. Resale value should be good, but note that there are fewer dealers even than other premium brands. Be sure to check the Fair Purchase Price before committing to a deal on a 2017 Maserati GranTurismo.
