Dear Harleydog,
This this the first time i read that Maserati`s lifestyle "is one of many breakdowns and overnight garage stays".
Cheers,
Nick

I must say to ntamp that maserati (ferrari) replaced the 3200 gt by an 4200 gt (engine is now without turbo's)
|
|
I` m not sure but i think the Coupe edition has the Turbo 3200cc. engine.
The new Cabrio has the new 4200cc. without Turbo.
Am i right Z8?

Also the difference between an M3 (E46) and an S 55 AMG is big. Mercedes S is 125000 € and an M3 65000€ so two for the price of one,and against an S 55 amg the M3 will beat it. (not against an sl 55 AMG)
|

I don` t think so.
M3 has a better acceleration than S 55 AMG, but after 200Km/h the M3 driver will lose the S 55 AMG.
The best reason to buy a Mercedes is BRABUS!!

Hi ntamp,
I looked it up and maserati is going to change the two models, spyder and coupé both with 4200 engine.
and the bmw will beat the mercedes, and i'm going to tell why.
The bmw m3 0-1000 m : 24.4 sec speed over 220 km/u
i could find a lot of the s 55 amg but i found every thing about the clk 55 amg
clk 0 -1000m 24.5 sec and 218 km/u
so the s 55 amg is a lot bigger than an clk 55 amg ok the s 55 amg has 13 hp more than the clk but that will not make the diffrence ( clk 1525 kg and s 55 amg over 1900 kg).
The m3 1570 kg. And at high speed you'll need more horse power and less torque and the s 55 amg has a lot more torque than the M3 but not much more horse power. So the M3 will beat the S 55 AMG.
And it's true what Harleydog told you maserati is'n so reliable, but it's still a need car.
Harleydog to increase the horsepower on an Boxter S buy a new computerchip this will give you about 20 hp more(could be more) just know if porsche find's out you've changed something on the car you'll lose your warranty.
If you want to know something more just mail me.
I hope i could help you.

Sorry Nick, shouldn´t have judged you.
And I have removed the limitation to 250km/h, so it can do about 265-270km/h, in different conditions.
A good car site is
http://www.carpassion.com
(The resourse for real car nuts)
The site also have a forum, and lots of movies of the BMW M3. And the sound of a F50.....
If you guys want to join a MB forum this is one of them.
