If you've felt a buzz around Maserati lately, you're absolutely right. The show-stopping Maserati GT2 Stradale performance car, proudly showcased at the New York Auto Show, is what the brand is calling a "barely street legal" performance machine. With over 600 horsepower and a price tag north of $312,000, only 914 will be built. Each one is crafted in Italy, where Maserati's rich heritage and headquarters reside, ready to be sold around the world.
Beneath its striking exterior, this mid-engine sports car is powered by a three-liter, twin-turbo V6 that delivers a thrilling 631 horsepower. The distinct scissor doors, which are perfectly balanced for effortless opening and closing, give the GT2 Stradale an eye-catching profile.
Inside, Ferrari-style paddle shifters are fixed to the steering column, ensuring the driver always has control, no matter the wheel's angle. The steering wheel also features a convenient stop-start button and launch mode, ready to unleash a rocket-like acceleration from a standstill. And for a glimpse of engineering artistry, a clear cover proudly displays the engine bay—a classic sports car touch that lets everyone admire its power.
In true sports car fashion, the GT2 Stradale boasts a low center of gravity, a very distinct wing, and a generous amount of carbon fiber. It's designed to be loud, rumbly, and utterly exhilarating.
