Maserati GranTurismo Convertible for 2009

Every time we see the Maserati GranTurismo in person at auto shows, times stops, everything else moves in slow-motion and we just admire its amazingly beautiful design and the smell of its interior. So how do you make something that’s already that beautiful even more attractive? You take its top off.

Maserati will be launching a convertible version of the GranTurismo next year.” The convertible will go on sale in March 2009, but we have not decided yet at which show we will unveil it,” a company source told Automotive News Europe at the Detroit Auto Show.

Basically Maserati needs a third product to reach its 12,000 sales target by 2011 and believes a GranTurismo convertible could help it get there.

The Maserati GranTurismo convertible will features a canvas softtop and will rival cars such as the BMW 6-Series.
