You could try Sports Maserati but I don't see a great deal of Levante discussion there.

There appears to be a US forum dedicated to the model: Maserati Levante Forum

I recently replaced my Ghibli S with a Levante S. Its still a Maserati and as its only .2s slower to 62 than the Ghibli it still feels pretty super to me.

Happy to chat about it.

Mate bought one after a RRS and loathes the thing....he is trading it in at a major loss to get another RRS.

Not special enough? Was it a diesel ?

I looked at one when I was changing my last RRS. The Levante did nothing for me (tried the diesel one), and ended up buying another RRS.

Have just had a Levante dropped off for me to use for a few days whilst the QP is away for servicing. Will be interesting to see how I get on with it in the real world although being a diesel version it's hardly likely to excite too much.

First impressions are that the interior and controls seem very familiar as almost identical to those of the QP.

Got one, new, only about 6 weeks ago. It's a petrol V6 and love it. I had a Cayenne before, but it did feel very German / lacking soul / everything black and quite fussy with so many buttons. Perfectly decent and competent car, but just missing something.

This is my 4th Maserati (had 3 GranTurismo's of various flavours). It wafts along when you want it to and can feel a bit slow, but once you press the sport button and louden up the exhaust, it is very nice indeed. It's obviously not a sports car, but at the same time it does enough to put a smile on your face - more so than the Cayenne did, as it has that bit of spirit and soul about it. I also love the blue colour and the light interior. I deliberately went for a more 'classic' look as opposed to 'drug dealer' and haven't regretted it one bit.

The downsides are the odd Italian peculiarity - only one stalk on the dash which does everything, but is in an awkward position because Italy. Umm...trying to think of anything else I don't like, but not really coming up with much. Oh and it has the most intuitive and responsive info screen / system that I've come across - that was a very pleasant surprise, as I expected a modest evolution of the GT's crappy system!

Overall its a lovely car and one I'd recommend giving a go.

Your post reminds me off the cruise in my old GT, the worst design ever, twist and hold the tip of the stalk to achieve your desired speed then release, honestly it was retarded

So looking at a Gransport or a RR Sport SVR
The Levante base spec is poor and needs £10k plus to get near the RR (£105k with normal paint best deal)

What essential kit did you chaps spec?

Is it a lusso or sport, I just setting up test drives.
Worried sport might be a very hard ride

Been to goodwood with pal who has a RRS SVR latest dash and it’s very loud and the interior very impressive - it’s a tough call

Test drive both and see which one you prefer.
