Is $1070/Month and $6k down a good deal on a Maserati Levante GT?

I hear ya loud and clear and I totally agree; that Maserati is certainly for a particular buyer. It also isn’t a terrible deal per se, i personally don’t see enough value for me.

OTOH, what are we using as a the primary metric here…if we are not to use any sort of ratio of monthly to MSRP value. This cracks me up because subconsciously most are using the 1% rule as a rough guideline for swiping left or right. Other than this being a decent payment on a $100k+ stickered vehicle, where is the real value here. The interior is outdated and a mediocre Chrysler child. Performance is OK. Other than it being a Maserati badge (and the monthly/MSRP ratio, which again we’re not supposed to use), why is this considered an ok deal.

Cmon, jump first and ask questions later. It’s the American way.

You’d have to take a look at the spec sheet and then take a chainsaw to that sticker. Like how much is the MSRP inflated by when compared to a similarly equipped X3 40i or SQ5?
