Introduced at the 2003 Frankfurt Motor Show, the fifth-generation (M139) Quattroporte was styled by Ken Okuyama of Pininfarina whose other credits included the Honda NSX and Enzo Ferrari. More driver orientated than a Bentley Flying Spur or range-topping Mercedes-Benz S-Class, the Maserati had a firmer ride and, in early cars at least, a ‘Duo Select’ paddle-shift transmission that was not at its best in fully automatic mode. Powered by a Ferrari-derived 4. 2 litre ‘quad cam’ V8 engine developing 395bhp/ 333lbft and reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5. 4 seconds and 171mph, the Quattroporte featured a truly sumptuous interior. For the money there are very few cars that can imbue occupants with the same sense of occasion as a M139.
