Overview

The 2011 Maserati GranTurismo Coupe is a midsize coupe offered in 2 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $118,900. For that price, it mainly competes with the Audi R8 Coupe, the Mercedes-Benz CL550 Coupe, and the Aston Martin Vantage Coupe. Between 2 trims, the Maserati GranTurismo offers 2 powertrains. The base engine is a 4.2L V8 capable of making 405 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque. If more power is required, there is also a 433 horsepower-making 4.7L V8 engine. A 6-speed automatic transmission is standard on both engines. The GranTurismo reaches 60 mph from zero in 5.1 seconds on its base engine, which gets pumped up to 4.9 seconds with the higher output. Meanwhile, regardless of engine output, the GranTurismo Coupe manages a combined fuel economy of 15 mpg. While we’re on the topic of choices, the 14 striking colors the GranTurismo comes in really pull you towards itself.

Buying Advice

It is impossible to go wrong with either trim when it comes to performance and luxury. Therefore, choosing a trim depends completely on how much power you need for commuting on a daily basis. However, don’t forget to include optional features like front parking sensors, two-tone interior colors, a faux suede headliner, a wood steering wheel, and perforated leather seats.
