As an owner of Maserati Quattroporte Sport GTS (the generation which is
based on Ferrari platform and has powerful Ferrari V8 engine) and also test
drove Ghibli and Levante with deep sadness I have to say that current
generation of Maserati is based on Chrysler and an overpriced junk. Here're
some points:https://www.upi.com/Business_News/2017/02/04/Maserati-recalls-

Ghibli and Levante engine is F160 - it is essentially a Chrysler
Pentastar opened-deck block with very few "inserts" from Ferrari. It is a V6
(not a V8) and considered by all mechanics as a garbage. F160 isn't used in
any Ferrari cars. Compare that with closed deck F136 and F154 Ferrari-
Maserati engines:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrari_F154_engine
Closed deck engine delivers high hp per liter and the only advantage of
opened deck engine is fast mass production.
The current Maserati cars are so bad that they depreciate in value like a
falling rock!!! I saw 2015 Ghibli with 30K miles for $32K!!! And even that
way too much, IMHO. Finally, leasing that junk to show off: well, if you're
rich, you don't lease, but buy the car and add lot of professional
performance tuning. The Ghibli and Levante owners are poor losers, girls don
't look at their cars but prefer Ferrari-based Quattroporte instead. ;)
My girlfriend (she's from Shanghai) chose Mercedes GLE SUV over Maserati
