2006 Maserati GranSport MC Victory. #116 of 180 MC Victory editions built, Grigio Touring / Nero, only 12,902 miles from new. Unique blue-weave carbon fiber aero elements, sport seats and interior trim, Ferrari-built 4.2L V8, 6-speed F1-style Cambiocorsa gearbox, Skyhook adaptive suspension.
Presented in Grigio Touring over Nero, this 2006 Maserati Gransport is #116 of only a handful of MC Victory editions. Just 180 of these MC Victory editions were produced by Maserati to commemorate their capture of the 2005 FIA GT Manufacturer's cup. This example has known just three previous owners since being sold new in 2005, and it was sold to the most recent owner here at Park Place LTD in December 2010. It has been driven just 12,900 miles, which works out to less than 1,500 a year. It is a well-kept and well-presented example, and the Park Place LTD Service Center has performed a thorough 71-point inspection, and all servicing is up-to-date.
To differentiate from a common base GranSport, Maserati outfitted the cars with a number of features that were not available on any other model. The exterior showcases a number of unique blue-weave carbon fiber aero elements including a large front splitter and rear decklid spoiler. A new black front grille and 19" Grigio Mercury wheels were used, with red brake calipers behind. Inside the cabin, the blue-weave carbon fiber continues at length, with the exclusive material gracing the center console, door panels, dash and sport seat backs, as well as the steering wheel paddle shifters. Leather & Alcantara upholstery was standard.
But these MC Victory cars are more than just a few new carbon fiber bits and a numbered plaque. The GranSports's fire-breathing naturally-aspirated 4.2L V8 was upgraded from 390 to 400hp, and is backed by an F1-style Cambiocorsa 6-speed gearbox. The Ferrari-built V8 features hardened aluminum silicon alloy heads, a forged crankshaft, race-derived dry sump lubrication system and visceral sport exhaust. The highly-desirable Skyhook adaptive suspension was also outfitted, as well as high-performance Brembo brakes with 4-piston calipers at all four corners. This GranSport will sprint to 60mph in just 4.8 seconds and will reach a 180mph (limited) top speed.
Included with this GranSport are two keys, the owner's manual, records for recent servicing and a CarFax history report.
