I happened to park next to this Maserati Ghibli at Target yesterd ay. I kinda dig the Italian flag stripes that flow into the grille slats. It also had almost all the carbon fiber bits one could possibly tack on to a car: front lip, mirror caps, fuel door cap, door handle caps, and a non-CF roof spoiler.

Yeah, that is a pretty nice touch. Just a shame it’s not on a better Italian car. What’s the rear badge say? “Black _____”?

They are finally re opening the Fiat/Maserati/Alfa dealership a mile or two from me. I pass by it a couple times a week. It’s cool to see the other brands of high end cars that litter the lot too.

I don’t hate it either, and I’m generally not a fan of off-center racing stripes. I think the Italian colors go very nicely with the base gray. For all that it’s bright red/white/green, it still seems a bit subtle.

L ooks pretty damn sharp to me too, just clean and enough accent to really set it off.

Maybe? It appears to be from an aftermarket company called Wald International but none of their stuff seems to have made it on this particular Maserati.

There should be LEDs integrated up front at least if it is.

I actually love it - I am a sucker for off center racing stripes though.

I’ve seen this same pinstripe on a white Fiat 124. I thought the Fiata should have had the stripe continued on the roof to complete the look. I also thought, hey that car is about as Italian as Dominos Pizza

Yes it does say Black Bison, although it looks completely different from that Wald Black Bison body kit. Not sure what’s going on there.

I don’t know enough about the company to say whether the one you saw is real or not, I just found out about them today. It is possible that the owner just put the badge on there but that’s a weird flex.

In any case I like the tricolori stripe  and grill e slats so I’ll give it a pass.
