Maserati to Stop V8 Production At the End of This Year

Even the most prestigious sports car brands are going electric, though McLaren recently announced an extension of its gas and hybrid engine partnership with Ricardo. Maserati, whose Ferrari-derived gas V8s sing one of the most intoxicating songs, just did the opposite. The Italian automaker announced that it would discontinue its V8 production at the end of 2023.

Mustangbear I was a young engineer at Ford in 1991, feeling very privileged to work on a team located inside the proving grounds. I remember seeing a group of people clustered against the windows at the side of the building abutting the high-speed track. As I joined them, I saw they were watching two very sleek coupes take a couple laps. Minutes later, the cars were in our parking lot, and everyone rushed outside to take our first look at the undisguised 1993 Mark VIII.

El scotto My new beret would be the cheapest thing involved with restoring this. Well, maybe a pack of French cigarettes.
El scotto No, no, and once again NO! Here in the metro D.C. Kia dealers are advertising Tellurides with cash on the hood. Here's what makes people laugh out loud: "1.9% financing for well-qualified buyers"! So maybe, and I'm being very, very, very generous here; maybe .01 of 1% of Kia buyers can at least fill out the paperwork to be considered well-qualified. They are all low curdogs, Kia North America, their dealers, and those willing to pay extra for something that depreciates.
Bd2 So sad, "Anal" is in here posting as himself and then calling himself out after the fact while pretending to be me. The Telluride has it's share of minor issues but is the best SUV from a "non-premium" brand even with higher MSRPs, the sales keep on rising even in the 6th year of production. The next generation will bring greater size, turbo engines, 2 hybrid variants, further improvements to the premium feel, and a definitive infotainment and safety suite.
