2009 Maserati GranTurismo MC Corse Concept

MASERATI GRANTURISMO MC CORSE CONCEPT




We said earlier that Maserati sells like never before . The stunning Quattroporte and Gran Turismo have that on their conscience. Recently had the Maserati Gran Turismo S more muscle, but if that still is not enough, then a street version of the GranTurismo MC Corse Concept may be an appropriate response.



The Quattroporte and Gran Turismo now sell delicious but Maserati will not sit back and wait until the effect wears off once again. To further expand the offer is being considered as a street version of the MC Corse Concept .




The MC Corse Concept is still remembered for racing on the circuit. The car has hardly an interior, is equipped with a roll cage, has enormous ABS brakes and fog. The racer is powered by the 4.7 liter V8 from the GranTurismo S , with power only marginally increased to 450 hp. It is especially the huge weight savings, of about two tons to less than 1,400 pounds, which is a huge performance boost.



If the street version is coming, it will of course simply be equipped with things like ABS and airbags, etc., but the interior will probably remain somewhat spartan feel. Perhaps the engine still needs a little further up to compensate for the extra pounds ballast. About the "or" and "when" the car is coming, we can not say much, but we obviously tight in the holes.
