Check out another gorgeous Maserati to come out of recent times. We just covered the Maserati Gran Tursimo S MC Sportline which left me almost wanting to head to Maserati of Pasadena and see about some financial assistance or a loaner for the weekend. Now an updated Quattroporte Sport cranking up 433hp with four doors and a much more aggressive exterior is coming to the Detroit Auto show and we cannot wait. Check out the PR from Maserati below.
