(from Maserati Press
Release) On the basis of the
Quattroporte Sport GT S comes the car which celebrates the countless
awards that the Maserati flagship sedan has received from the day of
its debut to today.
The Quattroporte Sport GT S “Awards Edition”, the latest jewel in
the Maserati range, makes its official debut at the prestigious
Geneva Auto Show.
Six years after its birth, the car that created the luxury sport
sedan segment continues to receive accolades from the general
public, automobile enthusiasts and the press. Maserati has decided
to celebrate its success with a superlative version, blending the
elegance and sporty stylishness of the brand’s flagship, thanks to
the combination of highly refined details, handcrafted finishes and
features with a decidedly sporty flair.
During its six years of life, the Maserati Quattroporte has received
no less than fifty six awards from the most prestigious automotive
and lifestyle publications in fourteen countries over in four
continents: a global approval for a car that has known how to
recreate itself over the years, never failing to maintain the appeal
of the lines and purity of the forms created by the hand of
Pininfarina, which defined it an instant classic.
The Quattroporte Sport GT S “Awards Edition”, based on the
Quattroporte Sport GT S, aims to combine in one car all the features
that have made the Trident flagship a benchmark for its segment:
• the unique and elegant styling, mixed with a hint of sporting flair
due to the eye-catching features adopted on both the exterior and
interior fittings;
• driving enjoyment, because the “Awards Edition” is based on the Quattroporte Sport GT S, which boasts dynamic and top-class
performance;
• the craftsmanship of the hand-finished details which make each car
a unique product.
The new Quarzo fuso finishing – a pearlescent metallic grey with
golden nuanced colour - exclusive to this model, makes the exterior
immediately recognizable, and highlights the body’s elegant lines.
The burnished treatment used on the exterior chrome parts, as well
as on the side air vents and radiator surround, also blends with the
20’’ Multi Trident dark grey rims with satin finish.
The brake system, which replicates the system fitted to the
Quattroporte Sport GT S and uses dual-cast technology, is further
enhanced by the hand-polished calipers both at the front and rear.
With the Quattroporte Sport GT S “Awards Edition”, Maserati and
Brembo are introducing on the market for the first time polished
calipers, treated with precision mechanical processes and featuring
a hand finish which gives them their special mirror-like appearance
and enhances their sporty credentials at the same time.
The interior also bears witness to the combination of sporting flair
and craftsmanship that has always characterized the Maserati
flagship sedan. The Poltrona Frau leather of the seats is combined
with perforated Alcantara with a new undulated pattern, and the
headlining still in Alcantara. Completing the interior space are the
special brushed aluminum door sills and Piano Black satin-finish
wood moldings.
The boot with a full black trim has been embellished further with
chrome details and a leather side pocket. The attention to details
has even been extended to the mats, which are made of even richer
and softer material.
A special exterior “Awards Edition” series plate completes the car’s
look and makes an already unique car even more unmistakable.
The Quattroporte Sport GT S “Awards Edition” will be available in
the latter half of 2010 as model year 2011
