Replying to: bdeblanc (Jul 11, 2006 2:05 pm) I can't speak for all dealers but the following is an example:   6,000 mile service $659 18,000 miles service $1,086 31,000 miles ervice $1,794   1st year - $856 2nd year - $1,105 3rd year - $1,202   Example, you drive 6,000 miles in 1st year your cost would be $659 + $856.   Hope this helps.

Replying to: laforzagop (Jul 12, 2006 2:51 pm) I had around 11K miles when I replaced the rear tires. The front ones were still good at that time. I heard that this is a typical milage for any high-performance tires. Replies to this message: laforzagop (Jul 14, 2006 1:08 pm) vk00 (Aug 14, 2006 11:27 am)

Replying to: vk00 (Jul 14, 2006 11:33 am) Thanks,   What type of tires come on the Q stock? Pirelli Rossos? I don't know because mine is in the shop. Also what other tires are good that will last longer for the 19" wheels? Thank you Replies to this message: vk00 (Aug 14, 2006 11:27 am)

Even on very plain roads my QP is driving a little bit to the right. Everyone have the same problem and what will be the solution? Thanks, drwag

Replying to: laforzagop (Jul 14, 2006 1:08 pm) Yes, they are Pirelli Rossos. Sorry for the delay: I missed your question.
#119 of 166 Help by jb7227 Oct 24, 2006 (4:05 pm)
Anyone purchased a QP within the last few weeks? Just test drove a Nero base sedan today - what a ride. Was considering the AM V8 coupe...no more. Curious to see what others have paid. The subvented lease program that Maserati is offering thru the end of the month was an attraction. MSRP $ 116,215 - they came down to $ 110,500. Should I be looking for more? Lease for 36 months/10K/yr (including tax) was around $ 2,100, with no money down and no security deposit. Spoke with a client who used to be a dealer in the 1980's Biturbo-era - said that there is around $ 25K markup in the car. My local dealer had 5 '06's and 2 '07's. DuoSelect is unbelievable - I figure it would take me about a month to drive it smoothly. I was surprised at the amount of low-end torque on the car. Any help on the price issue would be appreciated! I really want this car!! Replies to this message: paxtonk (Oct 24, 2006 5:58 pm)

Replying to: jb7227 (Oct 24, 2006 4:05 pm) Not $25k, maximum difference between msrp and invoice is about $12-13 depending on MSRP. Sounds like your dealer has a few which means they aren't moving quickly and they are probably looking to sell the 2006's they have before more of the 2007's begin to arrive. Where are you located that they have so many?

Boston area. I spoke with a client/dealer who told me at the auctions, he saw an average mileage (12-15k) 05 going for around 77K. 06's were around 80-83K. I believe the warranty is 4 yr/50, which makes getting an 05 or used 06 model not such a dicey proposition. Saving $30,000 in depreciation buying preowned could pay for more than a few repairs. Im going back and forth on it....do I get a new 06 for the "new" factor, or try to find one at auction. Obivously, buying new doesn't make sense from a financial standpoint, but to take a $25-30,000 haircut when you drive it off the lot (even when you can afford a $100K plus car) is unsettling. I'm not considering any other make/model. Any thoughts out there?

Replying to: 07burb (Oct 25, 2006 8:49 am) If you don't mind having your car in service a bit or you only plan to drive it during the weekends then go ahead with the 2005. The problem with getting these cars from the auction is you don't know what kind of condition it is in, ask yourself why would this almost brand new 2006 be at an auction? We are paying around $10k under invoice for a pre-owned 2006 from a previous customer not auction.

Replying to: 07burb (Oct 25, 2006 8:49 am) Here's the problem. With Maserati not supporting the clutch, it's a 3k crap shoot every 6-8k miles.   As stated before, they took back my first and put two clutches and a 'torque tube' (driveshaft in this.   Yes it looks great and, when problem free runs as well as any sports car. Would I do it again, probably not worth the hassle.   Look at the new four door Aston Martin....
