Benefits of Driving a 2011 Maserati Quattroporte Sedan

While both Porsche and Aston Martin have both recently added new 4-door grand touring models to their lineups, Maserati has had its Quattroporte since 2004, making them something of an expert. Legendary Italian design house Pininfarina contributed to the car's distinctive design, and Ferrari provided technical assistance as well as a pair of stellar V8 engines. Maserati's long history proves they know how to combine strong performance and the highest levels of luxury as well design that is intensely Italian. The Quattroporte's base prices start at $121,250-- about $86,000 cheaper than the Aston Martin.

What's new for 2011?

Not much has changed for the Quattroporte since its major facelift for the 2009 model year. The 4-door sedan (Quattroporte being Italian for 'four-door') retains its luxurious interior appointments and powerful V8 engine for all three trim levels, base, S and Sport GT S. Some minor cosmetic updates have been made to the S model, and several options have been placed into packages to make customer ordering more simplified.

Original Warranty  Original Warranty An original warranty is the warranty associated with a vehicle when it is brand new. In addition to the original warranty, select items, like tires, are typically covered by respective manufacturers. Also, an act of Federal law sometimes provides protection for certain components, like emissions equipment. The original warranty is often broken down into multiple sections, including: Basic Warranty: Typically covers everything except for parts that wear out through normal use of the vehicle. Examples of non-covered items are brake pads, wiper blades and filters. Drivetrain Warranty: This warranty covers items the basic warranty does not protect. Wear and tear items such as hoses will not be covered, but key items like the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft often will be. Roadside Assistance: The level of service differs greatly with this warranty, but many manufacturers offer a toll-free number that helps provide assistance in case you run out of gas, get a flat tire or lock your keys in the car. Corrosion Warranty: This warranty focuses on protecting you from holes caused by rust or corrosion in your vehicle's sheet metal. Please check the owner's manual, visit a local dealership or look at the manufacturer's website to learn more about the specifics of the warranties that apply to a vehicle.	Miles	Months
