Although a few “components” will be missing from the upcoming 2009 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Maserati still plans on unveiling an all new Quattroporte Sport GT S which is, as you may have guessed, the performance version of the Quattroporte S. The GTS version gets a pumped up 440hp version of the V8 found in the Quattroporte and Quattroporte S versions which only put out 400hp and 430hp respectively.
Also included in the new GT S Quattroporte is a paddle-shift operated transmission, same as in the others only with some floppy paddles to play with matched to new software for quicker shifts. Other additions include carbon fiber accents in replace of the traditional wood paneling on the interior.
Also, don’t forget that you can get discounted new car pricing with a free quote through qualified local dealer partners.
We guess that the competition is keeping up since the introduction of the new Porsche Panamera.
