Official: Maserati NA prices GranTurismo MC and GranTurismo Convertible Sport
If you’ve been hankering for a new two-door but the 400-horsepower 4.2-liter V8 in the base and the 434hp 4.7-liter V8 in the GranTurismo S just aren’t cutting it, Maserati North America has good news for you, as a pair of more powerful versions are ready to hit American and Canadian roads.
First up is the that packs the same aggressive aerodynamically optimized bodywork as the more hardcore available overseas, but with four seats instead of two and a torque-converter six-speed ZF automatic instead of the sequential paddle-shifter.
Also reaching our shores is the GranTurismo Convertible Sport, which is the same as the sold overseas, just with a different name. (Apparently the Modense automaker doesn’t feel those on this side of the Atlantic know what a cabrio is.)
Now here’s the juicy bit: both the MC and Convertible Sport pack the more powerful version of the 4.7-liter V8 with 444 horsepower and 380 lb-ft of torque. The 2012 Maserati GranTurismo MC carries a base price of $139,900 in the U.S., while the 2012 Maserati GranTurismo Convertible Sport goes for $147,500.
