About the Maserati GranSport
The Maserati GranSport arrived in 2004 as the performance-oriented flagship of the M138 range, featuring a more aggressive aerodynamic package and a revised version of the Ferrari-derived F136 V8. It was distinguished by its 10mm lower ride height, 19-inch 'Trofeo' wheels, and a faster-shifting Cambiocorsa automated manual gearbox. Inside, the cabin blended traditional leather with technical 'Brightex' fabric and carbon fibre trim, reflecting its sportier intent. While it retained the grand touring comfort of the standard Coupé, the GranSport offered significantly sharper handling and a more vocal exhaust note, making it a more engaging driver's car.

Maserati GranSport fun facts
- The GranSport was the first Maserati to be styled under the direction of Frank Stephenson, who also designed the modern Mini and the Ferrari F430.
- Its F136 RB engine features a cross-plane crankshaft, giving it a deeper, more traditional V8 rumble compared to the flat-plane crank used in contemporary Ferraris.
- The car's aerodynamic tweaks, including the new front splitter and rear lip spoiler, reduced the drag coefficient to 0.33 while improving high-speed stability.
