Today, we delve into the realm of Italian luxury with Doug DeMuro showcasing the 2012 Maserati Quattroporte S. This iteration aims to redeem the Quattroporte's tainted reputation, known for its early unreliability and clunky driving experience. The car, now up for auction on Cars and Bids, boasts improvements in performance and reliability compared to its predecessors. Under the hood roars a 4.7L V8 engine, a powerhouse derived from the prestigious Ferrari powertrain, delivering a respectable 425 horsepower.
Maserati's attention to detail is evident in the Quattroporte's exterior design, adorned with various Maserati logos showcasing the brand's heritage. However, the real surprises lie within the car's interior, where a plethora of quirks await. From the electronic door release offering both mechanical and electronic options to the abundance of Maserati logos adorning every corner, the Quattroporte's cabin is a blend of luxury and eccentricity. The full carbon fiber interior from the MC Sport Line trim adds a sporty touch, setting it apart from its competitors.
Inside the Quattroporte, passengers are treated to a unique experience with features like a telephone dial pad, a "dark" button to control the infotainment screen, and a button-operated glove box. The back seat offers comfort and convenience, with rear climate vents and seat controls, while the trunk reveals more surprises, including a small storage compartment and a power plug for charging devices. Despite its quirks, the Maserati Quattroporte S stands as a testament to Italian luxury and craftsmanship, offering a blend of performance, style, and eccentricity that sets it apart in the world of luxury sedans.
