The real model: an Italian renaissance

Launched in 2007, the Maserati Gran Turismo marks the return of the Italian brand to the luxury grand coupe segment. Developed based on the Quattroporte sedan, it benefits from Pininfarina's expertise for its exterior design, creating a silhouette that is both elegant and muscular, which immediately makes an impression.

Powered by a V8 4.2-liter engine producing 405 horsepower, the Gran Turismo combines sports performance with grand touring comfort. Its sophisticated chassis and 6-speed ZF automatic transmission make it a true grand tourer in the pure Italian tradition, capable of covering miles with refinement.

The commercial success is immediate, allowing Maserati to regain a prominent place in the luxury automobile market and attract a new clientele seduced by this less radical approach than that of Ferrari but equally exciting.

Maserati in the 2000s: a brand in renaissance

At the time of the Gran Turismo's development, Maserati was experiencing a period of renewal under the Fiat group. After difficult decades, the trident brand regained its nobility through models like the 2004 Quattroporte, which laid the foundations for the new Maserati identity.

Founded in 1914 in Bologna by the Maserati brothers, the brand has always distinguished itself by its sporty vocation and technical excellence. From victories in Formula 1 with Juan Manuel Fangio in the 1950s to endurance successes, Maserati forged its legend on the tracks before turning to prestige automobiles. This racing heritage is felt in every model of the modern range, with the Gran Turismo not being an exception, showcasing its sporty genes and authentic Italian temperament.

A story of design and cinema

The Maserati Gran Turismo has a unique feature in the automotive industry: it is one of the last models entirely designed by Pininfarina before the renowned Italian coachbuilder ceased designing cars to focus on industrial design. This collaboration thus represents the end of a golden era of transalpine automotive design.

The model has also made an impression through its cinematic appearances, particularly in several Hollywood productions where its elegant silhouette and unique sound make it a natural choice to embody Italian refinement. Its presence on the big screen contributes to solidifying its reputation as an exceptional GT.

An interesting technical anecdote: the V8 engine of the Gran Turismo is derived from Ferrari's, but Maserati chose a different approach by prioritizing flexibility and low-end torque over pure power. This philosophy perfectly reflects the brand's DNA, which is more oriented towards grand touring than pure sport.

The black color of this miniature is not insignificant: it was one of the most sought-after shades on the real model, perfectly highlighting the sculpted lines of the bodywork and imparting a timeless elegance to the coupe that still captivates lovers of fine automobiles today.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to understand the scales of miniatures?

Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.

Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.

What scales are available?

Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.

The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).

Does the model car come with protection?

Yes, each model car is systematically delivered in its protective box. This box preserves the collectible value and protects your model car from dust and shocks.

How is my package protected during transport?

We package each order with the utmost care: bubble wrap, appropriate cushioning, and polystyrene. Your model car is perfectly secure during its journey.

What is the delivery time?

In-stock items are shipped within 24-48 hours. Please allow 2-3 business days for France via Colissimo or 4-5 days via Mondial Relay.

The model car is no longer in stock, when will you have it?

It's impossible for me to know exactly when I'll receive a new stock because I receive arrivals in dribs and drabs. Please contact me so I can keep you informed as soon as it's available.
