Inspired by the success of the $200,000-plus GranTurismo MC Stradale (itself inspired by the Trofeo GranTurismo MC spec race car), Maserati designed this droptop GranTurismo MC to satiate Maser fans looking for higher levels of performance and more aggressive styling in an open-top car. Motivation for the essentially hand-assembled car will come from Maserati’s Ferrari-assembled 4.7-liter, 454-hp V-8 mated to a six-speed auto. Featuring pistons made of hardened aluminum and a high-strength steel crankshaft, the unit is good for 384 lb-ft of torque at 4750 rpm. Mated to the ZF-supplied MC Auto Shift transmission, the combo is said to propel the GranTurismo MC (with the softtop closed) to 62 mph in 4.9 seconds, and on to a claimed terminal velocity of 180 mph.
