  | AutoCar - Maserati GranTurismo S Automatic      What is it? For most car-makers, ‘automatic’ is simply a word on an options list. For Maserati however, and in relation to its flagship 4.7-litre Gran Turismo S in particular, it’s the signifier of an all-new model variant. And a very important variant at that. The Gran Turismo has been on sale for two years now, but with this latest version, the Italian sports car maker is making its coupe range complete. Since 2007, it says, it’s had a rival for the Mercedes CL500 and Jaguar XK in the shape of the 399bhp, 4.2-litre Gran Turismo. Since 2008 it’s been courting buyers of more driver focussed machinery such as Audi’s R8 and BMW’s M6 with its 4.7-litre Gran Turismo S. Full Article: AutoCar - Maserati GranTurismo S Automatic M
