Maserati Car: Rent a Spyder GT in Beverly Hills!
The Maserati Quattroporte is a luxury four-door sedan made by Maserati of Italy. The name translated from Italian literally means "four doors". There have been five generations of the car, each separated by a period of roughly five years.
Dreamed up and developed by Italdesign-Giugiaro, the Spyder is the first new Maserati car to be developed entirely under the supervision of company owners Ferrari. Equipped with the all-new 4.2-litre normally aspirated V8 engine, the new Spyder features Maserati's use of a new Cambiocorsa (racing gearbox) transmission and sophisticated new, active suspension system called 'Skyhook'.
This Maserati is comparable to the Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Tiptronic Convertible and the Jaguar XKR 4.0 Convertible, but the Maserati Spyder produces the most power and has the highest top speed.
The Maserati Spyder combines drop-top charm with high performance and handling that has long been the objective of Italian sports cars. Maserati has achieved cutting edge technical developments in engine, transmission, and even in chassis performance, making this 6 speed an inspiration.
