That's true. Few girls care much about cars, no offense. My gf can't even tell the difference between my 370Z and let's say...any other car with 2 doors.

Maserati ain't that fast actually. They're ok, but far from fast. It's the status though if you own one.

Interesting, the Maserati GT seems to have been a design influence on the FR-S/BRZ and the twins do look like mini-Masers in a squint.

Not sure about 25k, but you can find them in the upper 20's with 20-30k miles on the clock. I imagine cost of ownership would be a killer though....

You should look at a top gear review of the GS or even the newer GT, Clarkson isn't very fond of the gearbox.
