I've never liked the proportions on that Audi - it just looks too long to me - and I'm clinically insane, so Maserati.

Wouldn't even consider the RS7.

I'm sorry, I like my cars to have a heart and soul, so the maser wins flatout

I'd take the Audi. Performance put aside if I could afford one of these it would most likely be my DD and I'd probably have a track car in my garage. I'd pick the audi because I like it's looks better. The performance is just icing on the cake

Got to be the Audi for me. I'm not too keen on the new Quattroporte's looks. If you showed me the old Quattroporte, I'd of chosen it over the RS7 in a heartbeat. But an RS6 is a totally different story for me.

That Maserati is cool on the outside, the interior is just...I can't do it. A tune puts the Audi at close to 700 hp. I'll take it. And then sell it to get an M5 because I hate understeer ;)

Has to be the Maserati. I don't care if it costs more, weighs more and makes less power; my go to "if I win the lottery" car is always a Maserati. Love them for some reason.

Definitely Maserati. It could be half as good as the Audi and I'd still prefer it. Because fanboy.

I wouldn't even consider the Maserati. It's so boooooring looking. They've made a huge mistake with their new styling direction. The front end looks like a half-ass corporate penny-pincher attempt at looking evocative. Look at the rear end. It looks like a freaking Lexus.
Seriously, how fucking boring is that? It's not beautiful at all. A Maserati should be beautiful. The whole car looks like a fat, ponced up German saloon. Unless Maserati comes out with something equally epic, the Granturismo will be the last Maserati I lust after.

The Audi, because it's taillights don't look like those from a family hauler that predates it.

The Maserati, because put a straight exhaust on it and listen to that beautiful V8 sing.

I think that's what they were going for, people who don't like flashy. I'd prefer it to be more sexy as well, but I'd have it just so I could listen to that engine everyday. If you hear one in person, it's a very visceral experience.

I've heard the old Quattroporte in person twice, and there's two Granturismo's that prowl my city from time to time during the better months of the year. They sound pretty epic. But I really dislike the looks of this car. It's a affront to the Maserati brand.

Isn't the sound just glorious though, almost intoxicating. The looks are plain but I don't find them offensive.

That funny little snout does it no favors, that's for sure
