2006 Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT
The trident brand hypes this vehicle as "the four-door sports car," and who are we to argue? The four-door features a clean look, with no wild curves or ostentatious bodywork. The four chrome exhaust pipes provide at least circumstantial evidence to the horsepower the vehicle's 4.2-liter V-8 generates. The "Sport" in the car's name also refers to 20-inch wheels, better Brembo brakes and a button that, when depressed, slices gear-change times by more than a third.
The Executive GT edition of the Quattroporte made its U.S. debut at the 2006 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. (Skip to details on the: Executive GT)
Exterior
The vehicle features planes and lines so clean and safe that the FAA would be proud. Four doors, a transparent sunroof and three discrete air intakes on the side mark the car. So do the large equilateral, triangular brake lights. There's also a touch of black chrome on the grille. In short, it's a proper sedan.
Interior
There's more of the same comfortable feel inside as on the outside. Monochromatic black seats with a dash of colorful stitching echo the mostly conservative mood. Also, the rear chairs are each electronically adjustable; the front seats can be manipulated by people sitting behind them — although, truth be told, we can't fathom why that's a positive. Also up front, the aluminum gas and brake pedals look like cheese graters, pocked with holes. The steering wheel features a large trident logo and various call buttons. A video screen over the center dash shows guidance system read-outs. There's a large amount of dash space between the front windshield and passenger.
Under the Hood
The 4.2-liter V-8 engine generates 395 hp. The exhaust system has been tuned in this model, according to the company, so that it "gives a much deeper rumble" at faster speeds.
Safety
The Sport GT's Brembo brakes have cross-drilled discs, and the wheels monitor the vehicle's tire pressure automatically.
Executive GT
Distinguishing features of the Quattroporte Executive GT include a wide chrome front grille, chrome inlets in the front quarter panels and 19-inch polished wheels. Executive GT badges also are prominently displayed on the B-pillars. The interior features a suede headliner and a leather and wood steering wheel. Rear passenger amenities include separate climate controls, folding wood tables and manual side-window screens.
