The new Maserati configurator is really excellent — with far more choices for the exterior and interior than anticipated.
Over a dozen exterior colors, six wheel choices, four brake caliper colors and a sport pack are available outside.

Indoors — the Italian craftsmanship idea really blossoms. Six leathers are available for the seats, five themes for the dashboard, four accent materials like wood or carbon-fiber, and even special carpet and headliner colors.
Is this information overload for an executive sports car? For many BMW shoppers with silver exterior/black interior preferences — perhaps.
But the Italian nature of the Ghibli is one of its most appealing qulaities for people seeking something far more personalized and passionate.
The USA configurator links are:
2014 Ghibli — 5.5s to 60MPH — priced from $67,000
Large wheels really improve the base car’s style.
2014 Ghibli S Q4 — 4.7s to 60MPH — priced from 77,000
I picked almost every option except the skyhook electronic dampers.
