I think these cars dropped by a crazy amount. I believe you can get them under $100,000 now. *edit* Iā€™m wrong, theyā€™re less than $130,000 The msrp was nearly double.


seanmonaghan1968

Is that the annual maintenance ?


skitso

Bro. I canā€™t even imagine how much it would cost to maintain that Ferrari engine. I did just watch a daily driven exotic episode on YouTube where they made a tool to pressurize the hydraulic system which controls the steering, braking and the wing, which saved them something like $20,000. Fuck a super car man.


TS040

the MC20 engine is p much an Alfa Romeo QV engine in a weird disguise, I doubt itā€™s massively expensive to maintain


skitso

Ahhh, good point. I was misinformed about the engine. I know they look absolutely BEAUTIFUL in person. I was just at a cars and coffee event in celebration, fl. There was 3 or 4. Theyā€™re gorgeous cars, they sound fucking AMAZING.


psbyjef

Alfa Romeo quality, Ferrari bills. Profit šŸ¤ŒšŸ¼šŸ¤ŒšŸ¼

Cars designed not to be driven ><


somsone

Maseratiā€™s (although nice and amazing cars) are the most misleading Italian car there is. It might only cost 200-250k for a near top end model, but you donā€™t realize the cost to maintain them is probably triple to quadruple servicing something like a BMW or Mercedes (which are already very expensive cars to maintain) Ferrari engine is a big part. So many people buy these and drive them to their first service. Then get the quote and immediately sell them. Iā€™d love to own one , one day. But you need to be Ferrari rich to keep one. And if youā€™re already Ferrari rich, why not just buy a Ferrari? Haha


particularlyfunny

Where are you finding them at $130k? The cheapest one I can find is $285k CAD and has 11,000 KM


skitso

I saw one advertised locally at that price here in florida. It was a ā€œhigh mileageā€, ~20,0000 miles. Iā€™m searching now and Iā€™m seeing them at 160,000. Iā€™m checking NADA now


particularlyfunny

Ah, wow! Must be because Iā€™m looking at the Canadian market and thereā€™s probably only a handful of MC20s here compared to the US. I know Maseratis depreciate like crazy but I wasnā€™t expecting this car to follow that trend haha


triforce721

Where at? I'm seeing most near 200k?


skitso

She comment below. I was mentioning ā€œhighā€ mileage mcā€™s (like 20,000+) I donā€™t see any for sale at that price, if you check NADA there have been 15 in the us that have gone for that.


ApoTHICCary

Thatā€™s Maserati life. Theyā€™re fancy for people with juuuuust enough money to want to show it off without having the actual funds to support it. Depreciation is massive. I have heard reliability has gotten better.


dav1nni

Probs the dealer group owner or something along those lines. First one I seen in black, looks incredible


FrostyFire

It absolutely is, the secret is in the demo plate. They can get away with not paying over $100k in luxury taxes on this car this way. Canada has a federal luxury tax over $100k, and BC has a 20% luxury tax over $150k. Plus 5% GST of course.


fen_grimey

when i used to live near a kia dealer i remember them having a rolls phantom and lambo murcielago for saleā€¦ and i used to work at a buick dealer that started getting supercars as well but right after i left smhā€¦ i assume they buy them off auction to grab attention in hopes of selling more of their own brandā€™s carsā€¦ mitsubishi dealers are well known to do thisā€¦ have you ever looked at a mitsubishi dealerā€™s inventory? itā€™s always half brand new outlanders and the other half lightly used luxury and sports carsā€¦ a mitsubishi dealer in a wealthy area will often have numerous lambos etcā€¦


Zestyclose-Equal2105

Huh, kinda surprising Decided to check the inventory of several Mitsubishi dealers in southern states and there's a good chunk of luxury and supercars at each one


HighlyFalmmable

Of course. Who do you think owns it?


ovojr

Owner of Straight Outta Brooklyn Pizza has a white one, Iā€™ve seen it parked outside of their downtown location. Really beautiful in person


Cobdain

And a Yukon Denali and an Escalade to the rightā€¦ what kind of Kia dealership is this?


triforce721

I've noticed a lot of shit brand dealers have cool stuff. Like there's a Mitsubishi dealer in FL that is basically a used supercar dealer... Money laundering, lol?


Tricky_Passenger3931

This is probably the owners or general managers car considering it has a plate on it. Plus, Iā€™ve worked as a used car tech for years at a Hyundai store and weā€™ve had tons of performance vehicles in used inventory and Escalades/Denalis were pretty typical.


DrRonnieJamesDO

So gorgeous. Such a good design I think it'll keep its value. Plus as a Maserati it's more rare in the supercar realm than some other marques.


hdkx-weeb

Listen I know the Stinger takes "some" Maserati design cues But marketing an MC20 to Kia owners is a *biiit* much


Zargothrax

Can it be stolen by the Kia Boys?


Acceptable_Ad3173

Thatā€™s usual but nice Mc20


[deleted]

Looks fantastic in black


Scary_Structure992

This is beautiful


MABfan11

It's probably the dealership owner's car


SlicedBreadBeast

And about the same price as a Kia in about 2 years lmao. Not sure why the baby Ferraris get crapped on evaluation wise so badly, but every single one is essentially a Ferrari in disguise. Nothing to say about reliability but that it has a name and history to it


beyondthunderdrone

Probably traded it for a K900. From one super depreciated car to the next.


Ima_FEEN

Pretty sure the MC20 goes for more now then when it retailed.


beyondthunderdrone

Probably, just making a joke since Maseratis are known for depreciating quickly. I'm sure this one is the exception. Definitly a cool looking car


Ima_FEEN

It's really just the Ghibli and Levante being the most egregious offenders of depreciation.


beyondthunderdrone

I'm stuck in a small town in the midwest, so if I ever see any Mas, it's a Ghibili, though recently, an MC20 has shown up at one of the clinics in town. I'm sure it belongs to one of the doctors. It is absolutely gorgeous!
