Celebrating the marque's rich racing heritage, the MC Sport Line is "designed to enhance the sporty DNA of Maseratis" and makes extensive use of carbon fiber both inside and outside the car.
Exterior enhancements include a choice of carbon fiber front and rear spoilers, side skirts, mirror housings and door handles, as well as glossy black 20-inch wheels. Inside, carbon fiber bits include door panels, dashboard, center tunnel, steering wheel, paddle shifters and door sills. To accent all that carbon, the pedals are machined from solid aluminum.
The GranTurismo S is further modified with stiffer springs, shocks and stabilizer bars, resulting in a ride height that's 0.4 inch lower than the standard car. The firmer suspension settings are synchronized with the car's stability program software.
Maserati says its new MC Sport Line components can be bundled in a complete package or ordered individually. The GranTurismo S MC Sport Line will be available in Europe beginning in early 2009.
Inside Line says: Grand old name keeps true to its racing heritage. — Paul Lienert, Correspondent
