I DISAGREE WITH DOUG DEMURO | You SHOULD Buy The Maserati Ghibli. This Is Why.

- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- Everybody who reviews the Maserati Ghbili trashes it. They constantly compare it to the BMW 550i, and claim that Maserati has lost its charm and quality. I'm here to disagree with them! Watch me review and explain why I would definitely choose the Maserati Ghbili over the BMW 550, Audi A6, and Mercedes E class.
Follow me on Instagram @adamdrivesla for giveaways and contests!
I have the Luxury of owning both, an Audi A6 3.0 and now just recently purchased my used 15" Ghibli with 30,000 miles at a great price! Let me tell you, YOU CANNOT COMPARE THESE VEHICLES! Everywhere I look this car is turning heads and it's probably the only Maserati in my entire zip code, and it certainly makes a clear statement when I arrive to my business meetings. GET YOU ONE AT THE RIGHT PRICE, you will not be disappointed.
Awesome! I know there is a market for these cars that the mass audience doesn’t see. Thanks for the input!
I absolutely love mine too! Definitely head turner in a sea of BMW, Audi, Benz and Lexus. That sound 👌 🇮🇹
Exactly... once tasted the Maserati you'll be blowing away... my former car was a BMW 4 series cabrio... only 1 and half years old... with idrive and every possible option you can imagine... You just couldn't prepare soup in the car... so to say. It was a beautiful car I really liked..., but... comparing to my Maserati Ghibli... it was for my feeling just a Tupperware on wheels... even with more options... I don't care... the Maserati is unique... and very rare to see on the road... BMW at each corner of the street!
And Luis Sanchez... congratulations... I'm 100% sure you will enjoy each and every moment in the Maserati whenever you see and drive that beauty!!!
not sure where you are from but these are all over los angeles. I think they must have had some cheap lease deal.
I Love how This Video is Right Below That Doug's Video
Holy shit...
If she won’t wait in the rain as you look for your metallic emerald blue bmw, she aint the one.
This actually made me lol
So basically he confirmed everything that Doug DeMuro said - the bad steering, being slow, super bad build quality, etc. But he would still buy it just to turn heads and pretend that he is rich...(when he is not)... lol... And actually, the restaurant scenario is not that likely as this car will be broken most of the time.
Steering is great even acording to Doug ?
@@IvanDimitrov-nu7ih I'll tell you something interesting. Really, I'm still waiting.
he is telling this just to humor Demureau. the latter being an incompetent whatever.
You can Google car prices very easily, if you think a person’s pretending to be rich by driving a Maserati ghibli then you must be really dumb. Each to their own. Spend your money on whatever you want and shut up!
Actually he said that the safety options are optional but that Doug guy said they aren't even available. So who's right?
Thank you Adam for your review... You're very right... and it isn't surely a good and amazing car. I sold my 1 and half years old BMW 4series cabrio for the Maserati and although the BMW was a great car... I NEVER want to change my Maserati for a BMW now I've tasted everything of my Ghibli... and perhaps you forgot one thing to say in the review... many complaining about the gear shift.. but if they should use it RIGHT than they should discover that it works PERFECTLY ... I never have any problem with... oh... and Audi is using parts of VW too... makes it feel Audi worthless? Well, Maserati isn't worthless too... just coz of some buttons or screen.
so how to use the gear shift right? thx for answer
I love my Maserati SQ4. I’ve owned new Audi, BMW, Mercedes and they don’t compare to my current Maserati. Maserati is fast, looks beautiful and definitely a head turner .
Totally agree!!!!
how much did that cost? what condition?
What kind of Audi, bmw, Mercedes?
@@anthonylarios3125 Audi A6 and A7. BMW 5 and 6 series. Mercedes E400
keep lying
I have an SQ4, and unless you've owned one you definitely shouldn't comment. These car's are quick and super underrated. Over 400hp and 400tq with awd is a blast.
I haven't owned one but I comment: it's gorgeous and sounds heavenly. If I didn't own a Jaguar XF sedan and a BMW 6 Series coupe, I'd definitely buy a pre-owned Maserati Ghibli.
If you still have it would you say it's been reliable? I'm in the market for an SQ4 right now.
So it’s not very fast. Handling is mediocre. Not really optioned well. Won’t hold its value. But if your valet is too stupid to hit the lock button to cycle the lights in order to find your BMW quickly on a rainy day you will get all the ladies.
Totally legit review. Solid.
Maserati Ghibli SQ4 is super fast. Unless you’re driving an M BMW then this car is perfect
Not fast compared to what please? Is as quick as any comparable bmw or Mercedes 3.0 V6. You need to compare apples vs apples. A 550bmw is a v8 hence not comparable. They Handle quite good and much better than a Mercedes equivalent by ten fold. Bmw is not bad either in the handling game but they have been drumming this home for years. The leathers are much much higher quality in the Maserati than any German equivalent. Plastic buttons and switches. Ok. So what does bmw and Mercedes use? Plastics too. Porsche actually use VW switch gear and no one seems to give it a mention. All The tech that Doug mentioned is available for Maserati so no problem there. You just need to tick the option such as Porsche foe example. I’m all the Maserati looks lots better than all the boring Germans, sound better and hold value as good if not better than an equivalent 5 series or e class.
The price you pay for this car is for it’s looks and styling. The rest you get for free.
Nice video, Adam, and interesting points of view. Some notes from someone that bought one brand new and got back 37% of the original price (in Australia, mind you) after 6 years of trouble-free ownership (the car was kept in perfect condition and still had extended warranty when I sold it).
Here are my points:
1. I am not sure an E-class or an A6 or a 5-series would have kept their value much more. If they did, we would not be talking about a major amount of money.
2. I have owned a BMW, three Mercedes cars and one Audi. The Maserati was more reliable than most of them. Granted, I did not drive it every day, but my car was very reliable. The Audi had major gearbox issues (at low kms) and the E-class had to go back on a truck once - not to mention things breaking all the time. The BMW was as reliable as the Maserati.
3. My Ghibli (base model petrol, 330 hp) was exactly the same price as an E400 at the time of purchase in Australia. Identical performance; not slower. The E-class far better screwed together and more practical, but terribly bland. (And I love the E-class; one the best allround cars one can buy despite quality issues.)
4. The cheap plastics are annoying, but so were all the VW parts in my Audi. And the infotainment in my $100k BMW was a joke for the money. Not to mention the loughable ergonomics in the Audi that had more than 20 buttons around the gear stick -- an idiotic practice that both Audi and Porsche seem to love. The worst part for me in the Ghibli was that the whole car does not feel as solid as a Merc E-class or a BMW 5-series.
5. Does it turn heads? Oh yeah. Does it sound unbelievable, in a very technical, Italian way? Sure it does. Is it the cheapest way to get your hands on a Ferrari-built, incredible engine? Yep. Is the fantastic ZF gearbox perfectly mated to this wonderful engine and competent chassis? Aboslutely. Even average drivers like me get incredibly satisfying power slides, being fully in control. Good luck getting that out of an Audi or an E-class.
6. Do you want a much better screwed car, more space everywhere, more long distance comfort and refinement, more gadgets but still a good looking car with a magic engine? Get a recent, low-kms Quattroporte. I did, and I am never looking back!
Great comment thank you!
Maserati is one of nice exotic cars and many people would love to own but can't afford not even used one so they end up complaining how they don't like buttons lol.
Right! Most people who would have both cars in front of them would choose the Maserati but won’t admit it
I rented a Levante to propose to my gf in NY (same abuse received as a ghibli). I drove past AMG’s, M’s, and Porsches that were all far more expensive and techy. Didn’t matter, the levante turned heads like nothing I’ve ever seen, people took pictures of it, came up to me to ask what it was, or stared. I didn’t think it was so great, ride was ok, handling was meh, acceleration was disappointing, but MAN, it sounds like an absolute monster. It’s presence was second to nothing, I am going to lease one soon.
Absolutely! The car still stands for something. Thanks for sharing your experience! Keep me posted if you get the Levante. And thanks for watching
Facts!
Facts finally a realist on Maserati .they don’t have the toys but the lambo don’t either this car is for only certain drivers .this car stands out more than the rest
Yup, amazing car for its price
I like mine. No issues. Attractive. In the end it's a personal decision. Some are perfectly fine driving a Ford Escape.
I work at a luxury dealer in Dallas and when we get Ghibli’s we straight up cannot sell them. We’ve had 4 in the last year, 3 were sent to auction after 90 days because not a soul in the world wants to buy them. Re sale is total trash and is a complete money pit. I should mention all 4 of these people were severely upside down on them
I think it’s just the Ghibli. But people be buying the Granturismo.
Rented a Ghibli from Turo and bought a Gran Turismo a month later.
Fiat Chrysler group did not buy the Maserati brand. Maserati was part of Fiat Group for ages and already when they bought Chrysler. Which was a really long time ago. And no purchase of Maserati has in any way affected quality, at least negatively.
All other brands also have their switchgear shared with other models, including minivans. Mercedes, BMW, all of them.
I completely disagree. You work 9-10 hours at a job you hate to walk outside and into a car that does not come close to the E class or 5 series, especially the interior. Your date is going to get in the car and question why the inside of your Maserati looks like her dodge when shes only paying $200 a month. If you can get the Armo lease deals on one of theses then do it, but if i had the choice i would never pick this.
Good points, but how about a used one @ only 30k? Does it make a difference then?
If you ever drive one you probably would say different lol.
You clearly have not drove past a woman in a ghibli. They fawn over it
@@adamdrivesla8268 No honestly, I wouldn’t buy a car just for the status, I’d rather to have a good functional car that I like and not a car that non car people think it’s cool so I can show of…
I had a Maserati when it was a real Maserati it was one of my first cars actually. Not only a status symbol but never was in the shop the 4 years I owned one. I would never buy a car just to impress someone. The way I got that car was I knew everything about it and the guy I bought it from knew I would take care of it. At the time I was in the Maserati car club also and the youngest person. I drive a Ford F150 and Honda Accord daily own a Chevy SS and a Porshe 911 for a lil speed all vehicles owned title in hand and people see Honda more than anything. Even a Mercedes-Benz people who love the brand either buy in cash or lease and still have a new one every couple of years.
Doug was 100% right. I work at a dealership and it was one of the worst cars I’ve ever been in. The interior quality is insulting for a luxury car.
Oh... but one more thing... believe me... my Ghibli is really reliable in any way... no problems at all... Sorely not the fastest... but 101% more attractive and eye catcher... I see perhaps once in a few months 1 Maserati... BMW Audi Mercedes Porsche etc... I see them at each corner of the street... No one looks... for a Maserati everyone turns his head...
The Maserati badge is more exclusive more special than any of it's rivals that's the difference! and people who say Chrysler/Mercedes parts yeah, who cares? it's the engine that matters! the most important in a car! besides, I like the fact that Maserati has been tweaked improved since it's launch especially the steering and pleases the enthusiast remaining old skool and not going in the crazy self-driving electrification direction of Tesla, Mercedes etc....
See, there are a certain amount of people that will get it, such as yourself. Those who disagree simply disagree that the badge holds any value, which I definitely think it does
@@adamdrivesla8268 I agree I'm fed up of all these philistines on You Tube hating on Maserati very peasant! the sheer peasantry on You Tube is overwhelming! shows the level of class intelligence of today's society unfortunately!
Audi uses parts from VW... to remind some people!
Totally agree!!!
😂 you made my day bro.just open your eyes and see where is MERCEDES BMW and AUDI and if you can see the maserati anywhere.Delusional
Is it faster than your BMW? NO. Is it reliable? HELL NO. Is it made of cheap materials? There's plastic all over the place. Yet this is my MASERATI and i'm proud of it.What a stupid review😂
He continued after that with arguments that shatter all the gripes, but you don't care ...
1:40 wait...the s modal got 410 HP and not 345hp
Ahhh that road is sweet!!! Glad it’s getting some love! Great vid! Everything you said makes so much sense at least to me. It’s like saying you would rather have a Giulia instead of the 3 series... trust me nobody is going to think a 3 series is anything special even though it’s definitely a better car lol
That’s right!! I’d pick the more special car over the technically “better car”
Imagine wasting 85k on this car back in 2015 and trading it in under 20 grand now 😂 lmao
Sad lmao
A lot of people that did don’t actually care. So why should you if you’ve never owned one?
@@encrenoir6097 the thing is, this automaker doesn’t deserve credit. Just angers me that companies like this take advantage of people’s emotions and perpetuate luxury when in fact it’s made with the same attention to detail as a Dodge Dart.
That kind of depreciation hits the German brands as well.
Great review as I am considering one of these. I like the unique design but have some concerns about reliability and maintenance costs. I will only drive this 7-10k miles a year so it probably won't matter so much but would like to hear some thoughts.
I just bought a used 2015 SQ4 for $14k
Obviously can’t speak to reliability since I purchased yesterday, but definitely excited. I wanted to get a car I might choose over my Tesla (that my wife has mostly confiscated on a daily basis). The sound is incredible.
@@lukedelavergne3893 Congrats on the purchase! Please keep us posted on how things go. It's a beautiful car. A friend of mine bought a new Quattroporte and returned it because the rest of the family didn't like it. Also a nice car but wasn't as practical (for him).
I love mine. Swapped out the coils to Stephanie running a JB Ford ship with the 85 which completely woke up the motor. It was between this or a BMW Audi or Mercedes which you see hundreds a day. I will not see a single Maserati or maybe just one a day. Having a car that’s unique, and you’re not going to see five at a stoplight was worth it for me.
Totally agreed! Plus you forgot to mention the other ars feel soulless in comparison to the experience of driving an Italian thoroughbred, even it isn't the fastest, that exhaust note is sexy!
Absolutely, given the choice between the two cars, many people would probably choose the Maserati but don’t want to admit that the brand is a deciding factor haha
Doug essentially said that the Ghibli is more about show than capabilities. Not much different here.
Also its bad financial advice to buy Maserati (or any premium brands) as a middle class as the maintenance will set you back and stop you getting ahead.
Showing off will only get you so far…
In a roundabout way you and Doug agree. You're both saying the car is inferior to its German competition. The difference is you think that's okay because of the badge on the hood. Respectfully I'm siding with Doug here. This just is not a good car
Yes, you are correct. The facts of the car cannot be argued. I simply disagree with Doug saying that the BMW is the better option because of the facts alone, without considering brand prestige, design, etc…
@@adamdrivesla8268 Let's be honest, Adam, this car is really attractive and cool, plus the engine sounds awesome. The 5 Series is A CAR, this Maserati is THE CAR. Buying a pre-owned okay example is the way to go.
Love my sq4. Btw the sq4 and s trim produces 404hp/406lbft. 0 to 60 under 5 sec
4.7 seconds.My motor blew was replaced with the new one 424 horse.Mine is like 4.5 0 to 60.Been 175ph in my Ghibli one hell of a car.
@@elbruto1133 did u have warranty or insurance ?
I think this car looks awesome.
Def the most aggressive of the bunch
Im just wondering how the hell maserati can make any money, when even you agree that you should only buy it used
Dealerships are selling new ones in massive discounts. It’s probably worth it for someone with the warranty. Dated tech, bad material, crapy performance, and several quality issues will never give me reason to own one at any given price. Lmao
@@shinwang2469 I agree, they're trash heaps. They depreciate so much in value so fast that the 100k ones sell for the same price as a used Toyota without Toyota being the one with the massive and rapid depreciation. All the things maserati offers as upgrades for thousands more like camera systems, safety systems, extra luxury features ect, their competitors like BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Genesis, and even Lexus offer standard for a much lower price and much better reliability being the latter... so in conclusion, you're paying for the name "Maserati" thats it.
I'm not sure what year it is, someone angrily comment what year it is if it's obvious, but Doug was commenting on the 2017 Ghibli, and they improved the Ghibli since then I've heard, so the thumbnail title makes it seem like a scheme for views. The 2017 and early Ghiblis weren't anywhere near the best (stylish as it was), but newer ones I've heard aren't as bad, especially used, and they are quite cool.
Lol I'm also driving a Maserati Ghibli IN SINGAPORE , means cars are super expensive in my country, these Maseratis depreciates like crazy BUT it's still very exclusive owning it here due to its high road tax and 10 year only leasehold in my country... Anyone that says maseratis are just for people that wants to "act rich" please go own it one yourself, see if you can handle the maintenance costs and taxes ...
LMAO THIS CAR IS MADE FOR ME😂😂😂 someone whos tryna flex money without having money 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’s for people that spend all of their money on one shit that costs a lot just because of the brand
@Mr Morris I don’t have the money to buy one, if could I wouldn’t either.
Being an owner of one we don’t these cars to flex. We buy them bc we don’t want an Audi,BMW, Benz. The sound also is just addicting
I know this is a 2 year old video, and I am sure it has been pointed out by now, but the "S" and the SQ4 has 404 HP and a 0-60 of 4.7sec. I have an SQ4.
Straightforward communicator, very clear, thumbs up.
I think it’s just the Ghibli. But people be buying the Granturismo.
This is legit one of the worst videos I've ever watched. The entire video is just shrugging off major fundamental issues with the car, and counter arguing with anecdotal, shallow, and biased points. Just because the car is priced at $70,000 does not mean it's worth that much. This thing is a cheap toy compared to a Panamera at the same price point in your article.
Doesn’t change the fact that the Ghibli is the most overpriced vehicle and an endless moneypit
I’ve bought maserati right after watching doug review over ghibli
2 weeks driving the car no regrets the only thing i hate about this car is fuel consumption
What is your opinion now?
So you're saying to buy the car that under-represents the image people have for the brand, but because most people don't know that, they'll be fooled into thinking that the car you drive isn't garbage. BUT YOU WILL !. Totally disagree with your assesment.
I couldn't give a damn about status or prestige. Reliability is where it's at and it's not there with the Maserati.
These cars lose almost half the value once off the lot. Try to get them used for sure!
The best thing is to buy one of these that are a few years old and low mileage. Luxury cars depreciate like crazy, and quickly too. I bought myself a 2016 Jaguar XFS AWD that was $74,000 brand new for $32,000 this year in January. As of rn I only have 15000 miles on it. Don’t waste your money buying a brand new luxury vehicle.
Having leased a 16 Maserati Ghibli SQ4 and a 19 SQ4 I can say the positives outweigh the negatives by a wide margin. 424hp, AWD, huge Italian style, crazy Italian exhaust note, 4.5 sec 0-60. Auto start, heated wheel, heated rear seats, adaptive cruise w lane keeping, great sound system, handles like a sport coupe, SPORT MODE is awesome, you can hear your F1 pit crew telling you “mode push, mode push” lol. The car is special, and not a a fleet Euro car, MB, Audi, BMW etc. It’s a car that EVERYONE wishes they could drive, and yes the valets never give you a ticket, it’s I got you bro, so please tip them appropriately. I would definitely buy one off a 3 or 4 year lease with low miles and clean carfax, all the major depreciation has taken place.Treat yourself once!
As an owner of 00’s maserati and ferraris - this car did not get a ferrari designed engine as the others did. It’s a pentastar w tweaks. Things like switches - my f and m cars use switches from cheap fiats. Snobby car reviewers are just trying to get clicks. And unfortunately this car doesn’t handle well - it’s based on an older merc/chrys 300. It is beautiful but you can see sergio m was just trying to increase volume. Maserati is fixing the error of this mentality by building on the giorgio platform w the alfa / ferrari derived v6.
Still love this car...
With all due respect, anyone in the market looking for a car in the $80K range, will definitely exclude this vehicle from other candidates, after watching this video.
I still love my Ghibli! At the end of the day it's still a Maserati!
The people that make fun of the window switches sound dumb. They don’t realized that these switches you complain about came originally from Mercedes.. when Mercedes & Chrysler were merged. Chrysler adapted those switches and chassis to make the 300 and other models. So basically when people make fun of everything in this car they’re making fun of everything mercedes built. And they’re making fun of the dodge Chargers and challengers which are based on the same chassis. It’s crazy how much people don’t know about cars and let a review do it for them.
Nope, Ghibli is the most overpriced and least reliable vehicle on the market. Plus, why would I pay 70k for an exterior Maserati look for a Dodge Dart interior
The Geehbly lol underpowered, slow, falls apart, constantly in the shop. But seriously there are cars on the market at almost half the price, faster and WAY more reliable.
Which ones?
@@antoinebernier8730 Acura, Honda, Toyota, you can build a serious Camaro or Mustang for less than what you would spend on some trash Mas. In fact i've 💩'd on a couple Maseratis in my hybrid Lexus. A hybrid 😂

About to get a 2014 Ghibli with only 65k miles on it for $20k. Two owners and looks like brand new. Thanks for the video and vote of confidence in this car. I can't wait.
How is it so far?
Ummm...No. you basically confirmed everything Doug said, but narrowed it down to being a good buy for a narcicist. or some who wants to pretend to be rich. Also Executive class vehicles are supposed to be luxurous and built well...that's why they are called executive. Smooth power, comfortable ride, luxury features, build quality etc...if you want a car with poor build quality, poor reliability, no fetures and parts bin switches, those are typically not executive cars . that fits the description of a Pontiac Bonneville from the 90s.......
You can argue any luxury car is for a "narcissist" simply cause a Toyota Corolla gets you from A to B just as fine as a Mercedes E class.
A Maserati is built well in some areas and less well in others. But the same goes for BMW, Mercedes or Audi.
I've driven all these cars and a BMW or Mercedes can feel just as cheap in some areas.
Honestly, it's all whatever you value most. Ghiblis come with a different engine than pretty much any sedan, have a different look on design and the badge holds more emotional value than alternatives. For some that's enough, for some it's not.
I would pick any Maserati over any bmw. New or classic. Mr. tomorrow's opinion is just not worth listening to.
Maintenance is Waaaaaaaaaaay too expensive
Buying a ghibli to impress normies is already the wrong way to buy one. Not a single point about why you should buy one other than “you’ll turn the heads of people who don’t know anything about cars and other badge snobs”
A lease under 600$with 500$ down payment where tell me where please because I’m from ny and they want over 800 with 10k down lol
This Vehicle is not touching a BMW 5 series plus the X6 M Competition exist and the 8 Series exist. Test drive both and you will chose a BMW hands down. I test drive the Maserati Ghibli but i owned a Audi once and went BMW and won't replace BMW for a Maserati ever!
Doug De Mouro has borderline Asperger's syndrome - and that's one of the nicest things one can say about him. His reviews of many cars, and Maserati in particular. That said, you made a rookie mistake. The Maserati Ghibli comes in two versions. One has 345 Hp and accelerates from 0 to 60 in 5.7 seconds. The other model (same engine, different tuning) has a 430 HP engine, and it accelerates from 0 to 60 in less than 5.0 seconds.
doesn't it produce 404 hp with the S?
I wud say in the end im gonna get one just because most people doesnt want one.
Question for those who owned a Maserati. The local dealer has a Ghibli Base $28504 with 47k miles 1 owner and clean carfax. Is that something to consider?
Considering that it’s a clean 1 owner car, yes if you love the spec. Otherwise, you can find one for closer to 25k with those miles.
@@adamdrivesla8268 thank you for the awesome content and reply to my question. I rely on my CDL for income, so speed isn't the most important feature needed. Thanks again.
If you want to pay 20,000 for new struts & 10,000 timing chain repair get one . They the most expensive parts .
I disagree. I guess people just care about attention these days. That is your only selling point for this car lol
This Maserati and the Alfa Romeo Giulia are WAY under rated
2019, 2020 or 2021 what’s the highest to go in mileage when looking and what about trims and factory buy backs? I’m looking at them now…gonna give the boy the my Jag 3.0 Super Charge which I like, but liking the Rati a lot…
So that said any insight, help knowledge would be appreciated greatly! 😊
Planning to mindfuck a Dealership and going to get a few grand off their already good priced Maserati.
This car is fairly terrible from what i've heard, which can do wonders with negotiation. I can buy it cash, I'm pretty sure they are desperate af to sell.
I don't mind if they use the parts bin but please NOT where I and passengers can see them, it just doesn't work for me when I'm spending above average on a car. Their marketing people should know this and in doing so are treating buyers as dummies thinking a: buyers won't notice b: buyers don't mind and c: a fool and his/her money are quickly separated (i'm one, I bought a used German car)
Congrats. I was going to get a new Honda Civic type R and now I’m looking at a used Maserati.
7:15 That argument makes no sense.
You should absolutely not buy this car 😂
Doug is right, from 2018 yes buy ghibli, why because it has all the features that existed since 2014, but they refused to add them in 2014 uptill 2018! any other year (2014 to 2017) is crap! Dude you're dead wrong, trim with such features just doesn't exist and the entry price is almost the price of the bmw with all high tech features! damn that's messed up. buy ghibli but 2018 and up if possible 2020 and up, then we're talking!

BMW and Mercedes are like reliable but boring ass cars that everyone has. They’re like the German Toyota basically that moms use to pick up groceries from whole foods. Maserati just looks and sounds good from the name and logo down to the styling. What rap song has ever mentioned bmw in it. 😂
It gives Ferrari vibes on the exterior but the interior is Chrysler. No Interior quality and thats a deal breaker and the Horsepower is lower than the Competition

Not the best car, but offered at a great price!

The sound is the only good thing. Just a lump of shit.
The only Maserati worth buying is a Quattraportte Q4 or MC20 with the Butterfly doors. Even then the Maserati MC20 is overpriced in 200k might as well get a Ferrari if spending that much.

So, it’s the slowest, heaviest, less practical, worst quality, least equipped, depreciates terribly and it’s the most expensive car on its segment. I get it looks and sounds beautiful, and it also comes from a heritage brand. I just don’t get it. You are just paying a lot because of the status. For me it’s bad. If you love it’s ok too.
No one has yet to compare the maintenance side of things.
So basically what you are saying you buy this car so you can impress non car people and don’t mind the bad tech bad reliability ect… you get it
Beautiful car. And it is a Maserati! Not a german on-every-middle-class- driveway type of car. I drive an Alfa Giulia. Not only is it an Italian beauty but also the most reliable new car I ever bought. Zero issues since 2018. And it is my “daily driver winter car” up here harsh climate Sweden.
You said it right 👌🏽 “ stand out “ not like the commoners like Mercedes 🤷🏽♀️. I love mine 🖤
You buy a Maserati when you think you are betten than you actually are. And then you think the same way about your purchase.
I see there is one in town for $25k, with 101k miles... Think its worth the price ?
Great honest review of the car. If your good with overlooking the cons (like I am) then an absolute BUY!
Not loving this Ghibli, but I like your review and you have your point, great one
What year is the best year in that CAR!????
The 2014s are going to be the best value since they didn’t change too much until the 2018ish years
The argument for the Maserati is weak. Doug's point was well made. The point is BMW 550 gives you more for less. The only thing I would get the Maserati for is the prestige. When it comes to value BMW 550 wins.
Actually a M550I is slow. I blew one away in the turnpike in my Maserati Gran Tourismo. Which goes the same speed as a ghibli😂🤦🏾♂️add to that ive nerver had a problem with any Maserati model.
@@ballinrides You did not beat an M550i. Either it wasn’t really an M550i or it was and the driver didn’t know you were racing. Even if you beat it fair and square, the grand turismo is double the price of an M550i. So it should be faster, but it’s not. The base model ghibli is not even close to a contest for the M550i and the SQ4 is still significantly slower at the same price. The only Ghibli that could match an M550i is the Ghibli Trofeo and it’s still $30,000 more expensive.
@@MrStReTcH5000 a BMW M550i says M550i on it right? And the driver knew we were racing since he came up on me and asked me to race…and lost. Sorry to burst your bubble…
@@MrStReTcH5000 actually its not. A Gran Tourismo goes for about 30k. It got whipped by a car that has released the same model year after year…that’s sad. And actually the M550i should beat it since it by stats is more powerful. Which makes it even look worse because then you paid less to still get smoked. At least a GT is priced at 90k and can beat other 90k cars.
@@MrStReTcH5000 I know what I raced so you can try to front it. But the Gt is faster than you think. I’ve beaten it with an Ghibli SQ4. Couple days ago I just slaughtered an AMG C63. These cars are supposed be faster than mine for cheaper but they clearly aren’t when I pull away easily from them. I’ve even slaughtered one of those classical 8 series. Maseratis are made to feed of the traction and weight going towards the ground. The higher the odometer reaches the slower the other cars aroujd me get. I’ve beaten an M3. Fair n square is fair n square. Idc about stats. It can beat me 0-60. But I don’t drag race. I want a full race. Which the BMW can win.
I would never buy a brand new luxury car. Of course it will depreciate like crazy! And yes I like this car despite it's flaws. Nothing looks and sounds quite like it.
