I think the only thing underrated about it is the sound. I think it's not a great car past the engine. like other Maseratis. doesn't mean i didn't smile through the whole video.
As much as I love your F-Type, I think I prefer this car much more. The design is so timeless, and the exhaust noise is just so aggressive, but refined at the same time.
😲 Brilliant! One of my first car loves after experiencing it in person. This just reaffirms it. Didn't know they could sound this good with an ECU tune.
they always sound brilliant. an ecu tune has little to nothing to do with the sound. exhaust makes the sound. well actually the combustion but anyways... (;
god i love how he bounces off the limiter, it sounds so fkn incredible. and the slow automatic is so nice too when it downshifts, which a double clutch doesn't have, at least not at this level
What sucks with the Granturismo is the RPM gauge doesn't keep up with the engine speed. You hit the 7500 rpm redline and it's only reading 6800 rpm. Makes it sound like you don't know how to drive hitting the rev limiter that hard. 🤦♂️
I definitely did not expect that.. I got a little scared at the beginning but all I can say is nothing sound better than a Maserati , it's just mental. I love it !
FINALLY!! OMG!! A MASERATI IS ACKNOWLEDGED WITH HIGH PRAISE (AS THEY DAMN WELL SHOULD BE) ON YOUR CHANNEL! An MC Stradale is my dream car, that exhaust system is holy fuck, that is the only way to describe it- Holy fuck. AHHA! One of the best looking & best sounding Cars ever as a stock Stradale, and they can have gorgeous interior (when not in black, like most cars ahah)!
that is a proper engine note. that exhaust note is the selling point for me. Its good to see a dad teaching his kids the right cars to buy and how to drive them and modify them.
shahriar pourjafari The F Type R and the Maserati GT MCS are in the exact same category, it's just that the Maserati is seriously dated. Let's say looks and sound are down to preference, but everywhere else the F-Type is a better car.
Wait, so he is saying he got 150 hp from Intake/Cats/Exhaust/ECU tune ? Did I miss something ? Did I miss a part where he put a supercharger on it ?

all the bolt on mods in the world wont get the GT past 500hp .. those mods will get him 480-90 hp in a good day.. he just told Sam that, and Sam is not the type of "smart car guy" to know that and just run with it in the title..
There's a guy near me with one of these, even standard it sounds awesome! Can't even begin to imagine what a Larini exhaust sounds like on MC Stradale...
Agreed. I have a 13'. 454hp but only 384 lb-ft TQ. She's heavy. With an exhaust and improved intake and ecu, maybe you'd see 500-530bhp (400-430 at the wheel). 600 with a supercharger maybe? Correct me if I'm wrong there.

@@KSharp320 500 Hp in the best of days.. 530hp I have never heard a cross plane F136 with bolt on mods pump out 80hp over stock.. you need major head work and way beyond "exhaust and improved intake and ecu" to do 80hp over stock
Very impressive video. I really appreciate it. I was actually contemplating whether I should get an Aston Martin V12 Vantage or the Maserati Granturismo and I believe after watching this video I have my answer. Take care.
Great video, I like the colours, and awesome sounds, but its not an MC stradale. The stradale's were never sold in the USA. I believe the car shown is the MC Shift. The pure stradale's, in their first gen had only two seats, and also carbon ceramic brakes, and "Race" Mode. To those commenting on the bad gearbox: yes, its bad if you plan to use it as a day to day commuter or for the grocery run. But at 7/10 to 10/10 driving its amazing: 60ms shift times above 3500 rpm, same box as the ferrari 599. The stradale also had "only" 10bhp more than the rest of the line up, but everyone knows Ferrari let more power than that happen in the stradale. Tests out to a top speed of 314km/h. Hope I don't sound like a hater, more a defender of the stradale, one of the best sounding, looking and driving cars out there for any money. Peace.
I smiled from the very beginning, to the very end. Thank you so much, Sam. You videos are really great, and love your editing - like in general, all your videos. Cheers!
A lot of people saying that this would be a good replacement for the F-Type, I think you just need to replace it with something a bit different, a bit underrated and make it shine, that's probably why this car is loved so much now.
I just sold my granturismo two weeks ago but never did videos with proper mic to catch that sound as good as possible. I wish the 2016 model had an all new nav system etc because the one it has is terrible and i dont know how an exhaust and exu tune got over 600hp but the extra power it needs would make it perfect with a new nav system!
+marconico beh, per come ha scritto il commento, pare che ce l'avesse con l'Italia in generale..... poteva almeno mettere in chiaro che le aerografie non sono proprio stese bene (o cmq per i suoi gusti)
In the next update Maserati don't do anything to the exterior but only update the interior and include modern technology such as a touchscreen infotainment system. That is all people want.
When you think about it, it's a Ferrari v8 that was tuned more towards grand touring than racing. So perhaps a simple remap and exhaust really is what unlocks all that potential the engine has stored..
Cool ass car. Dad likes to play with it. No cruisin , just bruisin. Maserati has always made the best sounding cars. The MC-12 is the best sounding car in history. They old Grand Sport sounds like the gates of hell have been opened. But the Prancing Horse boys can argue that their cars sound the best.
Alfa romeo 75 at 6:02, very rare car, but must be SUPER rare in the states! Love it! Ps. I'm just like you Sam, and i'm not even there in person.. what a sound..!
this MC Stradale is really really awesome. it could carry two passengers at the rear seats. it's sexy, nice to look at for it has duck tail and a bigger backside.. tq bro.
buy an mc stradale!! and when people ask: "what do you drive Sam?" you can say; "a stradale" pretending it's a challenge stradale😂😂 plus it's sooooooo cool!!!
Nice vid.masersti has been missing from your channel. They are a fantastic daily. You should look at one as a possible jag replacement. They are an underated car
I have a Maser, and man says it all if you want an Italian car with a roaring exhaust and it has 4 seats which can easily take the kids out in, then look no further, no car sounds like it
This car has timeless design, like a DB9
exactly.
And dbs
nope its called art
From the rear 3/4 especially
Sad the interior isn't the same.
This car should be awarded a Grammy for its sound.
The sound... Something that i just can't explain. But nothing roar like a v8 Maserati. Belissimo...
This sounds better than the f-type, no question about it. One of the best NA v8's ever produced...sorry Sam.
Aston Martin GT8 sounds better.
+LegendInThaMakin no chance.
+LegendInThaMakin hell no it doesn't.........................................
True story
One of the best v8s ever produced? Eh I don’t think so at all.. but one of the best sounding for sure.
Finally! A proper video on youtube on a Maserati GT. Been waiting for this for ages. Such a criminally underrated car.
could not agree more!
I think the only thing underrated about it is the sound. I think it's not a great car past the engine. like other Maseratis. doesn't mean i didn't smile through the whole video.
like the way yoy put that.
Check Motor trend, Harrys Garage and Carfections videos on it
I think as you see them quite often in the UK they do get over looked - i loved this experience
The best GT car, in my mind.
And the dbs
Have you ever sat in one? The MC Stradales are painfully uncomfortable with racing suspension. Phenomenal car but I wouldn't call it a GT car.
As much as I love your F-Type, I think I prefer this car much more. The design is so timeless, and the exhaust noise is just so aggressive, but refined at the same time.
😲 Brilliant! One of my first car loves after experiencing it in person. This just reaffirms it. Didn't know they could sound this good with an ECU tune.
they always sound brilliant. an ecu tune has little to nothing to do with the sound. exhaust makes the sound. well actually the combustion but anyways... (;
He swapped out the midpipe to get more aggressive sound.
The MC Stradale was so understated when it came out but I believe it's truly morphed into a classic over it's lifetime.
god i love how he bounces off the limiter, it sounds so fkn incredible. and the slow automatic is so nice too when it downshifts, which a double clutch doesn't have, at least not at this level
What sucks with the Granturismo is the RPM gauge doesn't keep up with the engine speed. You hit the 7500 rpm redline and it's only reading 6800 rpm. Makes it sound like you don't know how to drive hitting the rev limiter that hard. 🤦♂️
I have always loved the GranTurismo, and the older Quattroporte too!
I definitely did not expect that.. I got a little scared at the beginning but all I can say is nothing sound better than a Maserati , it's just mental. I love it !
Entire video:
Rev Woohohohoho
Rev Woohohohoho
Rev Woohohohoho
Rev Woohohohoho
Rev Woohohohoho
:P
Italian work of art!
FINALLY!! someone realised that a granturismo is actually a good car
You know when you have a loud car when other people are honking at you!
The video really doesn't do it justice - unbelievable noise!
FINALLY!! OMG!! A MASERATI IS ACKNOWLEDGED WITH HIGH PRAISE (AS THEY DAMN WELL SHOULD BE) ON YOUR CHANNEL! An MC Stradale is my dream car, that exhaust system is holy fuck, that is the only way to describe it- Holy fuck. AHHA!
One of the best looking & best sounding Cars ever as a stock Stradale, and they can have gorgeous interior (when not in black, like most cars ahah)!
I agree with you about how great the car is. But this is a US spec MC so it is not a Stradale.
Incredible, what a beautiful piece of engineering and art. Let me say, I'll have one of these within the next 4-5 years!
Did you get one yet?
Do you have one yet?
Wassup??
It sounds mental and looks great!
Get one!!! Would love to see 100 videos of the MC
that is a proper engine note. that exhaust note is the selling point for me. Its good to see a dad teaching his kids the right cars to buy and how to drive them and modify them.
no joke you should definetly get a maserati i have been saying that before you even got the F TYPE get ride of the jag ang get a GranTourismo
The Jag is faster, more modern and sounds better.
+Kaisuke971 but this is more of a gt cruiser especially good for when he goes on road trips to monaco and and rallies maybe
+Kaisuke971 i dont think it sound berter.
+kenneth yip idk but it still sounds amazing
shahriar pourjafari The F Type R and the Maserati GT MCS are in the exact same category, it's just that the Maserati is seriously dated.

johny z lol why is it so hard for you to believe a NA car can have this much hp?
@ you're right and run with the title he did. US spec Granturismo MC is not a Stradale.
@@yophilli it was not about NA, it was about a stock car with basic bolt ons mods get to 600hp, with head work and etc a NA can do that power.
One of the best sounding cars ever!!
There's a guy near me with one of these, even standard it sounds awesome! Can't even begin to imagine what a Larini exhaust sounds like on MC Stradale...
Wow. What a sound. A masterpiece.
Awesome sound! Lucky to have 500hp though, no way it's 600+ that's just pub talk
Agreed. I have a 13'. 454hp but only 384 lb-ft TQ. She's heavy. With an exhaust and improved intake and ecu, maybe you'd see 500-530bhp (400-430 at the wheel). 600 with a supercharger maybe? Correct me if I'm wrong there.

@ you could very well be correct!
KSharp320 why is it so hard to up the hp in these cars?? But turbo is so easy
@@yophilli Because it's naturally aspirated. Hard to get big power improvements when the car doesn't have a supercharger or turbos.
i dont know about the 600hp i mean 160hp increase from an air filter, exhaust and a tune on an N/A car?
Stage 3 tune
JonesCarSpotter absolutely no way lol
@@jlove24 unless it's meth injection or something? But I've only seen that on turbo cars..
stack those bananas that still would barely increase the horsepower
@@jlove24 No your thinking of water injection like bmw gts I'm saying meth injection which can give a sizable increase even in extreme race builds.
This would actually be a pretty good F-Type replacement, or maybe wait for the Alfieri!
He'd downgrade, the MCS is way too old.
But it's more a supercar than the F-type
And it has a beautiful sound😍
fellekung This car is heavier by over 100kg, has 100 less hp, 170 less nm of torque and a slower gearbox.
It's an awesome car but I'm not sure it's for me. They are big cars and the interior feels a little too dated for me - but the sound is AMAZING
That's your next car sorted. Italian, V8, customisable, dam site cheaper than a Ferrari, no brainier really 👌🏼
Father goals right there haha
Haha for sure (sorry Dad)
that guy and his kids seem like cool people, love to see them again for sure
Very impressive video. I really appreciate it. I was actually contemplating whether I should get an Aston Martin V12 Vantage or the Maserati Granturismo and I believe after watching this video I have my answer. Take care.
What did you end up with?
@@600zxr I ended up selling my Audi and BMW and bought a Lexus.
@@OSMBadGuy I bought a 2013 Granturismo Sport last August. You're really missing out!
I got a 13 it’s Amazing 🤩
the best sound at world, sinfonia italiana
I love the Maserati GranTurismo and this video just makes me want one even more!
Great vid as always!
It sounds fantastic!

Agree - some tests had 0-62mph @ 3.8s
I was waiting for a decent video on the Larini exhaust system for the MC Stradale, thanks Sam
Was just looking for a video of a larini mc. And suddenly I hear Sam's voice! This is going to be perfect!
I smiled from the very beginning, to the very end. Thank you so much, Sam. You videos are really great, and love your editing - like in general, all your videos.
Cheers!
Wow! I had forgotten about these cars, but what a machine!
That looks and sounds incredible, and seems like it has the performance to warrant it. Love it!
Deary me! That sounds like an absolute banger ! Just fabulous ..
Why don't you replace the F-Type with a Macerati GrandTourismo?
Maserati..
+WeLoveCars granturismo...
Macerati GrandTourismo must be a replica :)
one of my favorite cars ever made
A lot of people saying that this would be a good replacement for the F-Type, I think you just need to replace it with something a bit different, a bit underrated and make it shine, that's probably why this car is loved so much now.

Maseratis are pretty slow for their price range when they're stock, in my opinion.
The granturismo is the sexiest thing mankind has ever produced
Good looking car unless for the Italy colors on it.
what's the matter about the italian flag? the car is italian, so what's your problem?
+Vicionaturalborndriver He just doesn't like it?
+Vicionaturalborndriver it looks good on the grill but it's too much on the body. It looks like a child scribbled over it. Italian here btw
+marconico beh, per come ha scritto il commento, pare che ce l'avesse con l'Italia in generale..... poteva almeno mettere in chiaro che le aerografie non sono proprio stese bene (o cmq per i suoi gusti)
Hyperion Prime Yes. Maybe, it would look better if it was straight lines. I'm not sure.
Sounds even better than the f type!!! I didn't think that was possible.
In the next update Maserati don't do anything to the exterior but only update the interior and include modern technology such as a touchscreen infotainment system. That is all people want.
'm loving the sound and look of this car
Sick video!! Love it! Keep the good work up Sam.
amazing car! still cant understand how this makes 600hp...the mc is rated at 460hp that means just the ecu and the exhaust added 140hp?
When you think about it, it's a Ferrari v8 that was tuned more towards grand touring than racing. So perhaps a simple remap and exhaust really is what unlocks all that potential the engine has stored..
remap
oh my goodness Gracious!!!! I dont think I've heard anything better other then the new Aston DB8 and the LFA!
remember it: italian things are always the best in the world
I love the car and I love that the kids can enjoy it as well
Shuld get an MC Stradale as next car!!!
Never had a thing for Maseratis, but this one was mad. If only they came like this.
No "Hello one and all, welcome to Seen through glaaaass?" I'm disappointed
Best sounding v8 ever.
Cool ass car. Dad likes to play with it. No cruisin , just bruisin. Maserati has always made the best sounding cars. The MC-12 is the best sounding car in history. They old Grand Sport sounds like the gates of hell have been opened. But the Prancing Horse boys can argue that their cars sound the best.
the exhaust lost the elegant lion sounding growl :/
That car sounds awesome!!!!!😍😍😍❤❤❤
Probably, the best V8 sound ever!
WHAT A FUCKING BEAUTY OMG, WHAT A TIMELESS DESIGN AND SOUND
If I had to choose one car it will be this car Maserati just has the best sound
you will sell your f-type after this. trust me.
Haha not so sure
+Seen Through Glass we'll see(;
+Seen Through Glass please a Maserati
the MC Stradale, the Gran Turismo Sport or the Quattroporte GTS 2009
Off the Wall nah fam, dont let me finess you also
lol @ the comments. "I like such and such so you should definitely get one cuz I find it subjectively better." Another great video btw!
Your best video seen though glass !
wat a cool dad. respect
Alfa romeo 75 at 6:02, very rare car, but must be SUPER rare in the states! Love it!
Ps. I'm just like you Sam, and i'm not even there in person.. what a sound..!
This video made me smile :). I also saw a mc stradale not so long ago but not at mental as that but still very loud. :)
Probaly 100th time i've seen this video. :O
This car is Goals!
Wow 90min👏👏👏👏👏 is the most beautiful car in the world and 600Hp
Sounded Wonderful!
That sound is unbelievable!!!
woah the back of the car actually has so much space !!!!!!
That is the best sounding vehicle i have ever heard
this MC Stradale is really really awesome. it could carry two passengers at the rear seats. it's sexy, nice to look at for it has duck tail and a bigger backside.. tq bro.
what a sound!!!! just amazing
Great vid and car. Gutted the intro wasnt the usual.
This car fit perfectly in you :D
buy an mc stradale!! and when people ask: "what do you drive Sam?" you can say; "a stradale" pretending it's a challenge stradale😂😂 plus it's sooooooo cool!!!
Hahaha brilliant idea :P
I knew how much you like the challenge stradale! I too share the passion for it, especially the sound!!!
Hey Sam, do you know what company tuned his MC? Great vid, thanks man!
This is the most beautiful Maserratti
I love how someone honked at him for revving, it's like fuck you peasant, gotta love this car
Best video EVER made
This car makes me happy!
holy crap that sound
Nice vid.masersti has been missing from your channel. They are a fantastic daily. You should look at one as a possible jag replacement. They are an underated car
Reminds me of the venerated Pantera, beautiful but absolutely crazy
This Mazza is mental!
Sam, just as a side note, it's Awie and not Arwie as per your description.
By the way, is he South African? Thick accent.
jus, ek dink ook so, klink baie afrikaans.
Sounds amazing!Great vid btw...
well, that was a blast................. :-)
awesome stuff Sam
I'm a ford guy but, the gran turismo is the most beautiful car ever made.
