Does anyone have a Maserati?

My friend is looking to buy a used Maserati Quadraporte, just wondering if anything he should look out for? Things like where he suppose to get maintenance? any known issues ? etc.

Thanks for your inputs.

I have a bunch of Maseratis, but no Quadraportes. Sorry I can't help you. I'd tell your friend to look for a used Aston Martin instead. The reliability, and interior is just that good.

i just know the oil changes are stupid expensive, and the oil filters are stupid expensive

oil change is like $2000, and the filter itself is like $100 bucks.

I see, but Astons are a bit out of my frd's price range, 69000 is the budget. (before tax)
He have consider M5s and CLS55, but they dont seem as 'rare' as he wanted.

You are referring to Ferrari Vancouver? $2000 would be with labour and all the material right?
