[kazora1001]

[MrRidwankhoda]

top gear top video

[MrRidwankhoda]

top gear to video

[Whatnotacos]

you can get a 2006 one of these for 24 grand.....and hasnt changed much compared to the 2009/11 model.

[Slakrrrrrr]

Apparantly, the Maserati Quattroporte's engine noise turns chicks on... aint that awesome!

[djkasdjkasdjdjdj]

only 400hp??

[MrBritdog2]

The rear end looks like a Buick and old one and the inside is nice but plain very plain and the front is like a Camry, but I like it because it is different, but when i see it in the parking lot next to Panemera and 7 series S6 it does not match up Audi really A8 embarrasses it, but I would get one to be different.

[lank05]

worlds fastest saloon huh? Cool! Now the whole family can benefit from dad's small penis.

[68thelzeppelin]

Fucking stupid gearbox!! 

[dhairyagupta]

When they tested the four door supercars, they all said The Quattroporte has presense, looked like a mob boss etc, basically going gaga over its design, but here he does not appreciate the way it looks. I guess he keeps changing his opinion. This guy is confused!

[davidajgp]

@dhairyagupta Quattroprtes have had a facelift since then

[shobin05]

@dhairyagupta thats because you werent paying attention..he said it looked like a vauxhall cresta when it was new, but now it looks spectacularly well balanced...because of the facelift...

[rastamees]

@dhairyagupta

like you havent changed your opinion about something

[motocrosskid90]

fastest salloon until now with the ferrari ff

[BallsOnWall11]

@motocrosskid90 It does not count it is a fastback 2 door and even if it was the Bugatti Galibier is still faster

[minazmorgul]

Fastest 4door saloon??? What about Bugatti Galibier???

[67claudius]

@minazmorgul perhaps because the Bugatti Galibier was not yet on the market

[bamboali]

saw one of theese today, great exhaust note^^

[TheUberPlayboy]

I love this car, bit the Rapide kicks its ass.

[bombshell234]

273 kmph!!! o.O!!! WOWOWOW

[jezza1789]

WOW that car looks like pure class.

[p200mmx]

It can`t be compared to a m5, because it`s the size of a 7 series and the 7s is the kind of car that drives my grandpa

[Matticitt]

Best review by Clarckson

[Abonald]

ehh the m5 goes 205

[nuclhead]

@Abonald it also looks like a briefcase.

[seboufdu59]

@Abonald not the stock one.

[powersurge001]

@Abonald no it doesnt, the M5 is limited to 155mph just like all BMWs. it would go 205mph if they took off the limiter (like they did on the development cars), but none were sold to the public without the limiter.

[absolutinspire]

@Abonald M5 is a V10

[davidajgp]

@Abonald But sadly it doesn't because it's limited to 155

[eyupcan1996]

@davidajgp if u remove the limiter that cost around €80,-

[davidajgp]

@eyupcan1996 But sadly AGAIN, it then counts as aftermarket parts and not the official top speed.

[eyupcan1996]

@davidajgp yeah bcz of freaking greenpeace

[geckoisgiko]

@davidajgp actually that's not aftermarket because ur not adding anything that isnt by bmw, ur just taking something bmw did to show make a bmw go as fast as a bmw can go

[K30N4D3]

@eyupcan1996 Top speed is not limited on Maseratis as it is in BMWs & Mercedes.

[areolaman]

@davidajgp the m5 is limited to 155 in 7th gear but does 180 in 6th gear because the speed limiter only affects 7th gear

[K30N4D3]

@davidajgp Sorry, I own one. This is false. The speed is unlimited.

[niels0650]

@Abonald maserati has style, m5 is just a piece of shit for show offs.

[bvl006]

argqaethqahe

[AMJGterra72]

But i have to admit, its a very nice car..

[AMJGterra72]

i really think that the s63 is much better..

6.2L V8 517BHP even though it wasnt out at the time this first came out..

[jumar1281]

LOL the ONE THING clarkson can't stand on earth is a flappy paddle gear box

[AHMADF93]

The Panamera looks like a briefcase and this one looks better. I think they should have a shootout between the Panamera, Quattroporte and Rapide.

[norra124]

@AHMADF93 search for 4 door supercar challenge.

[norra124]

@AHMADF93 or top gear battle of the super saloons

[Soetman]

0:13 WHAT DOES IT MEAN !!!

[norra124]

@Soetman what does what mean

[thetimshow]

the quattriporte is the best sounding car ive heard in person

[vijaymenon100]

please......maserati is owned by Fiat group..along with ferrari lancia and alfa romeo....get ur damn facts straight!!!!

[SSSSssscccireaaaa7]

Maserati will have an extremely tough job replacing the 2009 onwards facelifted version with a new generation successor!! Unquestionably the best looking 4 Door Luxury Saloon on sale today! Makes the current Mercedes S-Class look like Prince Ugly! Maserati is king!!! Maserati rulezzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

[Mephistopheles71]

i love this car,,,,real awesome....

[LamnaNasus]

Its the BEST excuse to get a Maserati AND a Ferrari :P. It has 4 doors and a big boot, so no one in your family can say anything about it being impractical! Hehe, brilliant :).

[marintoss]

Maserati is the best. Love all of them! They are just name of the game!

[6psychosis6]

Its CRAPtacular, CTS V all the way :)

[SutzStaffe89]

@6psychosis6 You are mad and totally blind redneck! Go put some chrome 24" rims on an Escalade!!! Leave real cars for people with taste...

[JVL8701]

it seriously looks slow n it is slow

[saint0470]

It was WAY cool before Mr. Bono bought one !!! Maserati is and was ALWAYS cool !!!

Bono ??!! since when does he 'represents' cool ..

[valleyviewprofits]

I'd buy one...

[col243]

crappy paddle gearbox.. 

[gardnerbm]

@col243 Get used to it, i think all ferrari brand cars are going to it.

[col243]

@gardnerbm paddle gearboxes a great.. but not when they are slow.. i drive the new porsche 911 turbo pdk.. en that's the one with the paddle's AND I LOVE IT.. (A)

[otakujhp]

I wish Maserati was more popular in the states. Outside of a few choice cities like Seattle, most people say, "what's a Maserati?"

[gardnerbm]

@otakujhp your with the wrong class of people if they dont know what a Maserati is.

[151soccer]

fastest salon car exept the cts-v

[redmr2na]

A German car. I know I forgot to add the Y to the end of German to make it Germany.

[redmr2na]

How can people compare the Quattroporte to a boring, ugly, german box. Seriously, I don't car who I piss off, German cars are rubbish. They as Richard Hammond so simply put it, "The Germans are so obsessed with what the other ones are doing that they all end up making the same car." I think that because of this, German should have only two car companies, Porsche and VW and that's it, every other german car company should be fused in to one company, and call their products just simply...

[McL4ren]

only retard say its ugly..

[andrearyanto]

Hmm, Bentley Spur, E63 AMG, or Quattroporte? Tough choice...

[skuiff]

GERMAN CARS ARE FUCKING RETARDED.

ITALIAN CARS ARE THE FUCKING BEST!!

[nacarckeckia]

whoshmobile :D

[Fishyboiboi]

its ugly, its hurts to know that its being designed by ferrari

[wiebehoukes]

You're quite blind if you don't like the look of this car; and the fact that Bono's bought one, is a bit of a turn off. Still, one of the most gorgeous cars ever built, especially after its 2008 update...

[ianredford2001]

maserati must always be terrible because they are italians, right in your mind ? So better a german panzer ?

[dannyrighi]

best car ever i'm valet parking and i drive all kind of cars since m5 bentleys s 5oo amg but the best of all is this one fell like you are driving a ferrari 360 confortable is the best

[monsterenergy713]

Someone at my schools grandparents have a black one.... It's amazing

[JunkerYardov]

Beautyfull car!

[CathalFolan]

Get it in black with the big shiny wheels and it looks and sounds better than any german saloon.

[EVILSPAWN1000]

@CathalFolan Have u seen the one they (Clarkson) use in "4 door supercars"? THAT is a perfect looking Quattroporte:-) Dark carbon grey-ish with black trim in stead of chrome.Awesome.Hamster drives a Panamera and May a A.M Rapide.

[lewis72]

"Only" 400bhp? That's not bad.

Lotus Carlton is faster (no doubt other 4 door cars are too.)

[awesomeskaters88]

my dad had 2 of those a coupe and a sedan but it is hard to compare to his aston martin v12 vantage

[googleguy08]

@awesomeskaters88

Wow you're a douche.  Leave.

[awesomeskaters88]

@googleguy08 haha you just are a loser do you have any cool cars no...

[EVILSPAWN1000]

@awesomeskaters88 Your dad had a Quattroporte Coupe?WOW,go away u little fag!You LYING little fag!And i`m not even gonna tell u WHAT gave u away.Apart from the whole "My dad..."-thing.

[voltrader66]

I own a 2009 QP S...it is unfair to compare it to BMW,MB,Audi etc. I have owned those too. This really is a class above. The audio/NAV system made by BOSE(German!) is not so good but everything else is pretty special.

[MrHadinosratlu]

Amazing sound!/Hadi Nosratlu

[casinoroyal08]

I might ask my dad who is a doctor if i can get this for my college graduation present because ive seen a 2007 executive gt masarati quattroport for only 47995 with only 18k miles on it!!!!!...on ebay which isnt bad at all better than a BMW or mercedes because everyone has a mersedes and lexus u know i want something different and its the same price as the jaguar xf supercharged...(2009)

[MrRongThingS]

i seen this on the road.........fuck the tag name.........it is the most unique sedan in the world............bastards

[TRUMPHENT]

The Maserati Quattroporte is the only car on "Clarkson Island".  :)

[Ewhisn61]

rather have an m5

[Nateb123]

@Ewhisn61 You've clearly never heard both of these cars. The Quattorporte wins based on sound alone.

[Desmonddd2002]

The new version looks miles better....Believe me I own one.

[detlevhannes79]

this thing looks boring

and german cars are much much much much better!

[davidajgp]

Are you insane german cars are boring. The maserati quattroporte is extremly good looking and boring don't think so.

[UnIngerPierdut]

most probably detlevhannes79 is german...and he speaks absolute rubbish...german cars have the most ugly,BORING and cheap feel interior of all cars!

[fangiopiacentini]

@davidajgp

JERENY SHUD SAY, MASERATI BORN 1912 , FERRARI 1946

SO, ALL FERRARIS ARE COPIED FROM MASERATI SPIRIT FROM 1914

IN THE SOUL OF ENZO FERRARI, AND ALSO COPIED FROM ALFA ROMEO

MASEARTI WAS SOLD TO FIAT, BUT PUT UNDER FERRARI BROTHERHOOD

DO NOT TOUCH MASERATI JEREMY

ALL BRITISH CARS ARE ROMAN DESIGN , AND YOU COPIED OUR ENGINES TOO

[Hellfire153]

@fangiopiacentini learn to spell before comment

[fangiopiacentini]

@Hellfire153 I am under the perhaps misled impression that you are a teacher ?

or something like that ?

As I can see , you are writting modern english from 1800 to date.......

from 1340 onwards you wrote some kind of a mixed language

on behalf of Chaucer, and permanently from 1400 onwards thru 1800

/or/and around 43 BC latin was your language until 1800 and french

derived from latin too

so ....try to be more specific , pls ?

spell what ?

[6psychosis6]

@davidajgp This car is USELESS. Day to day driving is terrible because of lack of reliabillity (italians could never quite get it right) Its not better than an S class, it doesnt look better than a Bmw m5 and its not as fast as a Cadillac CTS V.. so its pretty much NOTHING.

[davidajgp]

@6psychosis6 i can see you don't get the point it doesn't matter!!!!

when you have such heritage as maserati and call bmw and merc's better looking is just stupid. You surely don't like cars when you prefere reliability in front of good looks and passion!

[6psychosis6]

@davidajgp Yea, unfortunately passion and good looks make you end up on the side of hte road broken down or your car on fire (common thing amongst ferraris and lambos)

[mmgironi]

@6psychosis6

You prove urself to be an ignorant on cars with your comment. Lamborghini is not an Italian made car anymore, it maintains only its Italian history but it's owned by AUDI (GERMAN CAR), which means u claim german cars go on fire hahaha

Lol you retard.

[6psychosis6]

@mmgironi Its OWNED by Audi/VW - its still made in Italy, by italians. Research and development are is still all italians... factory is all italian...

[Molo9000]

@6psychosis6

The last Lamborghini with an all-Italian engine will soon go out of production.

Lamborghinis are still developed and built in Italy but a lot of stuff comes straight from Audi including large parts of the V10. Sitting in a Gallardo u can't stop wondering "what are all these Audi switches doing in here?"

[Molo9000]

@6psychosis6

Ecotics like Lamborghinis or Maseratis are never going to be as reliable or cheap to run as a Mercedes, even with the backup of huge corporations like VW or Fiat, but we live in the 21st century and even a Maserati isn't going to blow up once a week.

Whenever I see a big S-class with an AMG badge on the back, I think "what a git" but when I see a Quattroporte and hear the Ferrari sound it makes, I want to kiss the driver and thank him for not buying a boring car.

[8LeSkin8]

@6psychosis6 IT's NOT BETTER LOOKIN' THAN A GERMAN CAR ?!?!?!?!?!

WHERE DID U PUT YOUR EYES MAN?!?!

[buttnut1080]

@6psychosis6 That's a ridiculous statement. Just because it can't match the specs of another car doesn't mean its nothing; its not like you could match those specs anyways. And the Mase' is not desperately unreliable and the GT S is a masterpiece.

[davidajgp]

@6psychosis6 Do you get a Ferrari V8 in a merc or a cadillac

[6psychosis6]

@davidajgp lol who cares about the ferrari v8? Its riddled with problems and is way too over priced for it chucks out!

CTS V is a way better car than this ever could be.

[EVILSPAWN1000]

@6psychosis6 Are you experiencing any psychosis at the moment,or was it just that one episode 9 months ago? Hopefully u r on meds now,and can see it for the brilliant car it is.And the Sport GTS is even better.

[melanie1254]

@davidajgp

Nope!

[snapnrool]

@davidajgp no, you get a kick ass AMG engine in a Merc

[davidajgp]

@snapnrool I can't argue with that youre totaly right. It's an awsome engine

[marintoss]

@snapnrool One problem with that. Mercedes AMG isn't same kind of a car. They put in Merc chassis big engines with lots of hp but when you watch it roll you just see understeer oversteer and lots of wheel spin. It is just not balanced. Maserati is far more civilized and far better in my opinion.

[RXHardstyle]

@davidajgp LOL who cares if it a ferrari v8. half the price of the ferrari you're paying for the name haaahah waste of money

[maybach6536]

@davidajgp Nope because its owned of fiat!!!

[Indogyearsimdead]

@davidajgp In a Cadillac you get a 556 HP supercharged Corvette engine ;-)

[rmcld]

@Indogyearsimdead wich is why nobody buys that car

[Indogyearsimdead]

@rmcld REALLY? I think your very wrong, but then again I also think your a troll.

[rmcld]

@Indogyearsimdead Trolls win we are a legion, douche bags like you don´t.

[Indogyearsimdead]

@rmcld You may be legions but your still a dumbass legion. Now BACK UNDER YOUR BRIDGE TROLL! AND IT'S MISTER DOUCHE BAG TO YOU!

[rmcld]

@Indogyearsimdead it´s faggot douche bag for you

[Indogyearsimdead]

@rmcld Okay faggot douche bag back under your bridge. hhmmmm he seems to like the word faggot a lot, maybe because....

[rmcld]

@Indogyearsimdead because i feel like saying that word every time you reply, you´re just that annoyingly gay i´m sorry : /

[Indogyearsimdead]

@rmcld don't be sorry, if being gay works for you then I say "You go girl and take those tacky shoes with you"

[rmcld]

@Indogyearsimdead that´s the words that you say to yourself every day uh? i´m sorry but unlike your fag self, i don´t need them :´) you go giiiiiirl lmfao

[Indogyearsimdead]

@rmcld The lady doth protest too much, methinks, but you go girl and keep that freak flag flying (God knows it's all you got going for you).

[skyliner288]

@6psychosis6 stupid american...drive a BMW and compare it to your shit american CTS

[BreachedWall]

@6psychosis6 I own this car and it drives incredibly. Haven't had a single problem with it in terms of reliability and in my book it looks beautiful. Great car.

[TGforlyf]

@6psychosis6 i guess you haven't owned one then....the quattroporte is a land cruiser

you cold be doing 90mph and not even realising, i would argue about it being worse looking than an m5, do you honestly think a beemer is better looking

ya sure the CTS is faster but its american.....this car is made for journeys with a nice bit of performance

[KlutzyKarma]

@6psychosis6 cadillac cts-v isn't reliablle. i guess the americans could never quite get it right.

[NateJames1]

@6psychosis6 it is faster than the cts, safer than the s class, and its pretty cheap to for the value you can get in this car. Do some research

[TopMick7]

@6psychosis6 And haven't you heard that damn good sound?

[ErosaScuderia]

Except for BMW.

[dsito2]

@davidajgp look maseratti it's cool, it's daamn beautiful and it has an awesome sound, but german cars are better (for me) i mean german cars #1 cause i am a german fan and i admit it. but i would love to have this one :P

[davidajgp]

@dsito2 It is all about what you prioritize :D

[seauryakumar]

u are one crazy guy

Maserati is better than any German car

[Nateb123]

@detlevhannes79 Yeah, I hate Ferrari-engined sedans. I'd so rather have something bland, German and with an interior that comes in the worst colour ever: gray. Black if you're lucky. Please.

[JACKtheRIPP3R189]

@Nateb123 Pretty much every car brand can get a grey interior (including maserati). German cars are generally very good all-round. But i concur, anyone who thinks an absurd italian "Ferrari-engined sedan" as you adequately put it, is boring needs to be clapped on the ear.

[6psychosis6]

@Nateb123 I didnt realize that you didnt have options when it came to interior trim and styling? lol idiot.

[Nateb123]

@6psychosis6 Sorry, I don't feed trolls.

[rattlesnakepictures6]

@detlevhannes79 your opinion

[blockhouse007]

lifes good

[1DayAsADog]

I actually do not a child but Ok, its 2008 bought it it used I live in LA if you want me to take you for a ride let me know.

[1DayAsADog]

love Maserati already own a Granturismo but want a Quattro so bad.

[RoarOfZonda]

@1DayAsADog

Very nice, I own a Pagani Zonda F.
