Whiteout FR-S - Maserati attractant
 

The FR-S isn't my daily driver but I was really feeling the need for speed this morning. I park on the bottom level of a parking garage at work which is usually totally empty. What a treat to come out of work to find a Maserati GranTurismo Sport ($122,500 2012 MSRP!) parked close to the FR-S.

Looks like a Gran Turismo Quattroporte, i could be wrong.

Twins ;) always loved the GT Sport:drool:

your display picture describes my facial expression when i read your comment




but its a gran turismo, the quattroporte is their sedan

Thought that means 4 doors

Ok. Toyota definitely was inspired by Maserati in designing this coupe. It looks like a mini version.

hawt!

Quattroporte is what the Italians call 4 doors...When they're not surrendering. To their grannies.

:bellyroll: :clap:

We can see the the inspiration behind the 86 design

It's funny but my 2 favorite looking coupes under 35k was inspired in silhouette by more expensive cars. The 3.8 GC has a Aston Martin-like shape and the FR-S has the MGT-like shape but just smaller. I think its the biggest reason I love them a lot.
