Something only a true petrolhead would say as they don’t give a f**k if your Porsche 918 is 0.01 seconds quicker to 60 than a LaFerrari or a koenigsegg is 2mph faster than a Bugatti, it’s all irrelevant if you get into a car that has no sole. As someone once said, if you don’t look back and smile at your car every time you get out of it then you bought the wrong car!
Maserati’s are extremely special cars to me. They differentiate from everything else on the market and that truly confers the brand an image of exclusivity and originality. Is all about tradition, passion, quality and beauty when it comes to a Maserati.
In my eyes Maserati has something that most other car brands don’t have. It doesn’t care about the best performance, cause it is more about elegance and character. The design of the Maserati Quattroporte V is timeless in my eyes and shows what Maserati really was: An elegant car with a rough character
Test drove a 345hp base Levante last week. Those who say it sucks or even simply "not good" simply haven't driven one. One can claim it ain't a X5 as much as he wants, i test drove a X5 40i for comparison and dynamically speaking it wasn't even near as interesting. Felt like it had half the power for twice the weight.
I love the the way you say about the Maserati “it’s not about lap times, it’s about good times”. Spot on with that which I always have a soft spot for them.
"Patent that"? You can't patent expressions, only new technologies. Expressions can't be protected for as long as they're not an artwork in themselves or a part of a brand.
Yeah I guess is true! The 'me too' kind of thing! they will have to make more money to fund the crazy stuff, just like the others i guess! specially when they are not bought and financed by other giant!!!
Is always a pleasure see your content, the genuine passion that you talk about cars makes even richer and elevates too other level the content. Great video again waiting for the next one. Cheers
Sir once again you made a topic already great even better, interesting facts , a brief showing of some great cars , and a feeling of excitement prior to the run up the hill , then a little chat with the uk boss . It's just plain good 😊
Really nice to meet you on Sunday James thanks for taking time out of your day for a chat while you where in the Maserati stand . Brilliant as always keep up the great work . Cheers Shaun
Maserati is one of the great marques. I can tell you that the new turbo v8 sounds incredible, so if it drives well go for it! edit: I think the future for Maserati looks very good. Think of how Aston Martin and, more significantly due to the Ferrari partnership Alfa Romeo, had struggled for a long time with outdated cars but then leaped head first into 21st Century tech. Great coverage James, thanks.
Really nice to meet you on Sunday James top bloke for taking some time out when you seen us at the Maserati stand , keep up the good work brilliant as always
That Maserati Levante Trofeo will be classier and a gentleman's car, much more elegant and luxurious yet sporty compared to Lamborghini Urus, the latter might be super suv but earlier one has more soul than Urus
that maserati Levante Trofeo parked next to the Gran Cabrio makes it really apparent that its just a sedan with a couple inches added to the ride height and made up for with bigger wheels.
A lot of bitching in the comments about Maserati. Just look at that GranCabrio!! It's just art on wheels. It still is. "The interior looks dated"... So what? In about 40 years every car interior looks dated and that Maserati still looks as beautifull as today. Regarding the Levante: last week I visited my dealer and I sat in one. The interior is not really "creative", but the leather is great and I really got a special feeling in the car. Not as much as the previous Quattroporte, but still... Just a great brand for people with good taste. To bad all the vulgair German brands dominate the luxury car market.
@mrjww The Levante would really suit you - it’s so good looking! The Italian style that Maserati brings to the party is the perfect fit for your sophisticated channel. I hope to see another video of you buying one in the near future! Thanks for a great vid 👍🏼
James. F Pace SVR? I have the V6 Petrol S (No longer being produced) but I love it! If I upgraded then the SVR would be a natural choice without wasting a ton of money. It sounds great, looks great and will go like a missile. Just my thoughts.
I love the look and sound of the Maserati GranCabrio and GranTurismo. They are just awesome. Hope you get a Maserati of some sort. If you still are looking for a convertible the GranCabrio would do the job. And they also collaborates with some of the best brands, Bvlgari on watches, Ermenegildo Zegna og clothing and shoes. Just simply high end design all over. Great video.
1000% true, people saying "olol it's just a chrysler" or "get an AMG or a Porsche" don't understand what the brand is about, it's not about having carbon fiber and led inside the cars and blablabla, it's more about the driving experience and the luxury feeling
I don’t like the dash and the design of the steering wheel and whole center screen at all, looks like they took an old cran cabrio or whatever it’s called and put a new screen to “update it”... but it sounds so so good!
@MrJWW really great vid there james but i would like to ask you whats your sunglasses brand is please i would love to have one like this long time ago.. thanks.
Get the Stelvio QV in maroon. Can't get any better than that. Possibly the Bentayga, Cayenne Turbo S or the Cullinan. It's all about the emotional senses guiding you and seeing it in the flesh.
Hey, I was searching 458 speciales out of pure interest on autotrader and I saw one that was specked exactly like yours. Please tell me that’s not yours.
You are better off in the urus or the new alfa, Maserati has been in a holding zone for awhole not much inovation. Really there owners have kept them down unfortunately. Maybe now they will be allowed to be all they can be again i hope so
dunno, its just hard for me having previously been in love with the brand from the gran sport days and original quattroporte. Kinda lost their way a bit i think
Granted there are some nice details but Maserati play too much on a racing history and the cars lack refinement and quality! this does feel like your working for Maserati as an influencer and not working for your audience? please correct me if i am wrong?
Didn't really enjoy this video as much as others. Normally the content is top notch but maybe it is just the brand which isn't that exciting. Don't see why you would get a Maserati over the competition, even Alfa Romeo seem better value for money in the quadrifoglio range
i Love Maserati and it would be awesome to see one in your garage... but i like the Stelvio Quadrifoglio more... what about that? you fall in love with the Stelvio too and that thing really surprised you... so what do you think James Levante or Stelvio?
He gets to drive for Maserati at the event, and then he is like "Maserati if you are watching this video" lol, he just forgot to say: " This video was brought to you thanks to Maserati". I love your videos but these videos are decreasing your credibility.
Toronto Aviation don't be too harsh. Maserati has a magnificent history but in the latter years the company has been too reliant on FCA (Jeep) and sales as an independent brand to slow and therefore left in the dust and forgotten. Love the GranTurismo but it should've been updated at the same time the latest Quattroporte was new in my opinion the Ghibli wasn't necessary but Levante the exact opposite injection. Hopefully electrician is way better, I mean the Trident of Neptune could mean something environmental and an all electric platform could ad to the sporty luxurious brand to be what it was meant to be.
Even though they look and sound great i could just never see myself in a maserati because The only issue I have with Maserati is the Reliablity Issues that they are known to have.

Try new cayenne
@@albertweedsteinthethuggeni7797 Cayenne is nowhere near Maserati. Maserati got the best SUV sound in the market. Period!
@@cogaixudua sorry you are delusional
@@cogaixudua sound isn't everything
I love the the way you say about the Maserati “it’s not about lap times, it’s about good times”. Spot on with that which I always have a soft spot for them.
So, i was running late for work and now I’m gonna be another 16 minutes and 9 seconds later on top of what i was already late!
Cheers James 😬
I love this Maseratis interiors!!
Patent that and put it on a shirt. Epic expression: it’s not about lap times... it’s about good times!
Andrew Stewart i think he has, no?
"Patent that"? You can't patent expressions, only new technologies. Expressions can't be protected for as long as they're not an artwork in themselves or a part of a brand.
Always a pleasure watching you 'boot' the crap out of the cars you drive. Great vid James. Cant wait for content on the TDF.
That is why Ferrari doesn't need SUV! They can help Maserati building one with their parts! SWEET!!!
Bruno Conceição Ferrari is currently developing an own SUV in fact
Yeah they're calling it the FUV for goodness sake 😂
Ferrari needs that sweet money
Yeah I guess is true! The 'me too' kind of thing! they will have to make more money to fund the crazy stuff, just like the others i guess! specially when they are not bought and financed by other giant!!!
Is always a pleasure see your content, the genuine passion that you talk about cars makes even richer and elevates too other level the content. Great video again waiting for the next one. Cheers
By far the best content on UA-cam! You are ahead of all the UA-camrs out there, by a huge margin !
Levante trofeo, Stelvio qv, lambo urus, what an Italian trio😍🇮🇹🇮🇹😍
It's not about lap times; it's about good times
Quote of the day "It is not about lap times, it is about fun times"
“It’s not about lap times, it’s about good times”
Love it. Well said!
Sir once again you made a topic already great even better, interesting facts , a brief showing of some great cars , and a feeling of excitement prior to the run up the hill , then a little chat with the uk boss . It's just plain good 😊
"It's not about lap times. It's about good times". Love it!
When is the video featuring REGERA going live?
Shubhankar Jamdar today
Really nice to meet you on Sunday James thanks for taking time out of your day for a chat while you where in the Maserati stand . Brilliant as always keep up the great work . Cheers Shaun

This and the Mercedes SLS Roadster are the sexiest convertibles out there.
Finally !! A Maserati video. Thanks so much James
Really nice to meet you on Sunday James top bloke for taking some time out when you seen us at the Maserati stand , keep up the good work brilliant as always

This video was sooo immersive. Great work Mr. JWW
Was AWESOME to meet you there man! You were nice enough to stop sprinting to get a photo, appreciate it!
The BMW M2 LCI also has that weaved carbon fiber interior trim, looks and feels gorgeous!
Here is what I don't understand, why aren't you at a million PLUS subs. You give us GREAT some of the best content.
Please get the Stelvio QV! Its amazing
David Sass I second that!!
Agreed
Yea the levante looks decent on the outside, but inside its like from 2005. Stelvio is a true beauty!
for me best suv on market right now
Yes Stelvio Quadrifoglio is AMAZING
Quite enjoyed the on-camera appearance of George in the RM video, would certainly like more of him, seems like a great bloke!
that maserati Levante Trofeo parked next to the Gran Cabrio makes it really apparent that its just a sedan with a couple inches added to the ride height and made up for with bigger wheels.
Oh Man! I'm in love with Mesarati again
That Levante Trofeo would sound crazy. Should be better that Urus I think.
A lot of bitching in the comments about Maserati. Just look at that GranCabrio!! It's just art on wheels. It still is. "The interior looks dated"... So what? In about 40 years every car interior looks dated and that Maserati still looks as beautifull as today.

It would also be very interesting to get to see secondhand what the reliability is like with a Stelvio
Great video James, a brand that gets to the heart👍
James. F Pace SVR? I have the V6 Petrol S (No longer being produced) but I love it! If I upgraded then the SVR would be a natural choice without wasting a ton of money. It sounds great, looks great and will go like a missile. Just my thoughts.
Pace & Grace since 1914. From A True believer. Nice one JWW.
Looks like Maserati's R&D department are cooking something with those revenue cars. Make Maserati great again!
I could understand why the US get it first since every corner in Los Angeles has a Maserati and I am sick of it aha
All the Ghiblis are going to LA. A lot of people that fall for the badge over there. Buying a shitty car just to flex on their neighbours.
Great video, IMO the Maserati grill looks better on the Levante than on the other models.
WOW...Get's my interest as well! Masser YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS
The Alfa Romeo is working in a SUV using the 488 engine, witch almost 700hps
love Maserati, the Levante is amazing
I love the look and sound of the Maserati GranCabrio and GranTurismo.
They are just awesome.
Hope you get a Maserati of some sort.
If you still are looking for a convertible the GranCabrio would do the job.
And they also collaborates with some of the best brands, Bvlgari on watches, Ermenegildo Zegna og clothing and shoes.
Just simply high end design all over.
Great video.
Denis Spratt i've heard one in person,it's sounds mega
1000% true, people saying "olol it's just a chrysler" or "get an AMG or a Porsche" don't understand what the brand is about, it's not about having carbon fiber and led inside the cars and blablabla, it's more about the driving experience and the luxury feeling
Ooooh controversial 😉 Bulgaria are one of the best watch brands
Anthony Melone and the soul of the car itself
Granturismo needs a rework, outdated
You’re awesome James. Brilliant content always ✌🏻🇬🇧👌🏻
Alfa Romeo Stelvio quadrofolio also has a Ferrari based motor also and last I checked was the fastest SUV at the Ring.
They kindly started this (the Levante Trofeo) up for me to have a listen to the new V8 TT 😎
Goodwood is the best show in the world
And great video buddy 👍
Can’t help but remember your video about and reaction to the Alfa Romeo Stelvio QV. I think you need to get one of those as your Italian SUV
Hah , i was right in my instagram comment . I told you that it is a Ferrari engine but with a Maserati badge ! 😁 keep it up James ! Nice video !
Considering the succsses of Alfa with the QV Stelvio and Giulia I wouldnt expect anything less from Maserati
I don’t like the dash and the design of the steering wheel and whole center screen at all, looks like they took an old cran cabrio or whatever it’s called and put a new screen to “update it”... but it sounds so so good!
The 4 wheel drive Ghibli is not available in the U.K. according to Maserati website
@MrJWW really great vid there james but i would like to ask you whats your sunglasses brand is please i would love to have one like this long time ago.. thanks.
Love a maserati! Few more years and I'll be able to afford one:)
Dude - surely got to be a Range Rover sport SVR
Get the Stelvio QV in maroon. Can't get any better than that. Possibly the Bentayga, Cayenne Turbo S or the Cullinan. It's all about the emotional senses guiding you and seeing it in the flesh.
Awesome video James. What’s the time piece you are wearing ?
That Trofeo looks insane in the membrane! What about the F-Pace SVR, though?
Love the content James! Can't wait for the Regera vid :))
James, what about Alfa Stelvio? How does it compare to Levante?
Hey, I was searching 458 speciales out of pure interest on autotrader and I saw one that was specked exactly like yours. Please tell me that’s not yours.
You are better off in the urus or the new alfa, Maserati has been in a holding zone for awhole not much inovation. Really there owners have kept them down unfortunately. Maybe now they will be allowed to be all they can be again i hope so
Best life ever. One day I'll make it too Goodwood vip!! Mark my words strangers !! Lmao
If you let Novitec loose on the Trofeo they can tune it up to 600 hp madness!
I really like that SUV, but I have to drive 4 hrs to the Vancouver dealer to see one. Life is hard. LOL
James getting that money 💰💰💰💰
Class!!!👌...keep them coming Mr JWW.
The Range Rover is soon to be going then? 😉
can't get excited about maserati anymore
Trofeo is cool!
dunno, its just hard for me having previously been in love with the brand from the gran sport days and original quattroporte. Kinda lost their way a bit i think
Granted there are some nice details but Maserati play too much on a racing history and the cars lack refinement and quality! this does feel like your working for Maserati as an influencer and not working for your audience? please correct me if i am wrong?
When they start selling diesels you know they lost their way a bit
Didn't really enjoy this video as much as others. Normally the content is top notch but maybe it is just the brand which isn't that exciting.
Don't see why you would get a Maserati over the competition, even Alfa Romeo seem better value for money in the quadrifoglio range
Its all about lap times only and good times as well
When is the first drive video of the ferrari f12 tdf coming james?
Cmon just say brought to you by Maserati mate !
WHAT was that taking off just before you?! Huge sound!
Great sales pitch. Maserati should pay you!
They did, didn't you see the caption on the bottom left at the beginning?
Genuinely captivated! Nice one dude!
I sat in the Maserati’s at goodwood. I was fairly disappointed, it felt cheap.
Ugh can't wait to see and try the Trofeo, we have a Levante S at home and it is amazing !
12:38 thought you guys were holding hands for a split second.
i Love Maserati and it would be awesome to see one in your garage... but i like the Stelvio Quadrifoglio more... what about that? you fall in love with the Stelvio too and that thing really surprised you... so what do you think James Levante or Stelvio?
Cmon you know better than to consider actually buying a Maserati
Toronto Aviation Money talks. Paid promo. Any unbiased journalist knows that the Quattroporte is boorring.
He gets to drive for Maserati at the event, and then he is like "Maserati if you are watching this video" lol, he just forgot to say: " This video was brought to you thanks to Maserati". I love your videos but these videos are decreasing your credibility.

What do you buy if you want a gran turismo with a naturally aspirated great sounding V8?
If only Maserati would create an MC12 successor..
Can’t stand Maserati laziest car company on earth couldn’t be arsed to update their cars
mate..why don't u go for the stelvio QF then?
What about Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio? ✌🏼😇
That Trofeo is 171k! Pass me the Urus 🇮🇹
I'm not sure you should buy one but it would certainly be interesting to see what you think of it!
03:17 Definately saw the white's of your eyes there James!
hi james will there be a video on the regera you drove? saw that on Instagram, looks insane.
Going live today at 1pm (bst) 😜
The thing is that this Grand Turismo might sound good, but it is a very old car!
You should review a Chyrsler and you will realize how much of the Chrysler interior is inside the Masserati
Even though they look and sound great i could just never see myself in a maserati because The only issue I have with Maserati is the Reliablity Issues that they are known to have.
Are u making a video on the regera
Screaming and racing how cool
You know what? This video is better than a Top Gear Vid! Speaking of which, the BBC should look to you to replace Matt LeBlanc
Great Vid
Get one of these. The brand will surprise you!!
I''m just looking at the Aston's in the background
Do you still have the Range Rover? Replacing that?
