"SmoresTM Has No Chill (O==[][]==O)" (sammauri)

Good question... It's not often that I get a survey that applies to me, and normally I just hit "none of the above." But I was given the following choices:

Well, that one certainly made me think.

I was torn between the BMW and the Maserati, but in the end I think I would go with the Quattroporte GTS. They're far more anonymous than the Aston and Porsche, and as much as I love BMW they're a bit common in my neck of the woods. The Q4 has its problems (like some obvious bean counting on the part of Fiat Chrysler in the interior), but if the noise is up to Maserati's standards, I don't care. Plus its a damn good looking sedan.

What about you, oppo? Given these options, which would you take*?

*take, not buy. Lets assume someone's just going to give you one of four keys and send you on your marry way.

I'd take the Maserati also. Just because.

Probably the Aston, but just maybe the Maserati.

I don't care how many problems the Quattroporte has, I'd get one just for that sound.

if it was my own money and one of these was "budgeted" into overall expenditures, it would be the aston.

if it was money to burn, the maserati.

Quattroporte. But the previous-gen, with a Larini exhaust (sorry for bad video).

Hmm tough question! Probably the panemera, or the Aston for me.

Yup. This is the correct answer.

My uncle had a Panamera Turbo before he traded it in for his 911 Turbo S. That thing was properly insane. Weird to drive though, because of how massive it is.

Same page, buddy. Same page. I drove a Maserati Coupe Cambicorsa for a week, and even though its the bottom rung on the used Maserati ladder, I was smitten. The sound it made was so great that I drove around in below freezing temperatures and light snow so I could hear it better. No regrets.

It's a definite close second for me. That was the obvious choice, I thought, but the Mas has a little more flair in a somehow significantly more anonymous package.

You got this question and I got Toyota Corolla, Ford Focus, Honda Civic or Mazda 3.

To answer the question, Quattroporte for sure.

Holy shit, you're right. I am deeply ashamed.

SmoresTM Has No Chill (O==[][]==O) > KnowsAboutCars

Mazda 3. Definitely.

Unless the Focus came in ST or RS form

I was about to do a post about it here asking Youtube to provide more details. Your survey at least mentioned trim levels.

Agreed, I've just always loved the M5. My cousins (now) ex-husband had one and at a young age, riding around in that beast, it's always stuck with me.

Maserati Quattroporte every time.

I'd agonise over the Aston and the Maserati, before choosing the BMW and secret wishing I'd given the Porsche a shot.

It's all right. No one's perfect :)

I have to go with the M5, as it's the only one of the bunch that I would even have a prayer of being able to afford to keep up on maintenance costs. I can't even imagine how much, say, a water pump for a Maserati would cost. It's not even listed on RockAuto.

Aston Martin Rapide.

Especially if I get to pick how to configure the thing. Aston's bespoke service is excellent.
