Stresa, 5 August 2024 – Maserati has once again showcased its unparalleled craftsmanship and dedication to custom-built luxury with the delivery of two unique vehicles: the Quattroporte Grand Finale and the MC20 Iris. These masterpieces, embodying the pinnacle of Italian artisanship, were handed over to a distinguished American entrepreneur from the biomedical sector in a stunning ceremony at Lake Maggiore on July 31.
The Grand Finale of an Era
The Quattroporte Grand Finale marks the end of an era, being the last model equipped with Maserati’s iconic V8 engine. This bespoke vehicle, part of Maserati’s exclusive Fuoriserie customization program, is a true celebration of the brand’s legacy. The exterior boasts a sophisticated Blu Nobile color, complemented by a carbon fiber body kit painted to match. The brake calipers in brushed aluminum add a striking contrast, while the unique identification number, 999999, is imprinted on the windscreen and inside the driver door, emphasizing its exclusivity.
Inside, the Quattroporte Grand Finale is a testament to meticulous Italian craftsmanship. The interior features a blend of luxurious materials and personalized touches, including burl accents on the steering wheel, tan door panels, and a black leather A-pillar. The Trident logo is elegantly stitched in black on the headrests, and a custom leather-lined boot and passenger door handle accents in burl further enhance its opulence. The special ‘Grand Finale’ badge on the central tunnel and dedicated door sill make this Quattroporte a true icon of automotive excellence.
The Vibrant MC20 Iris
Equally impressive is the MC20 Iris, a vibrant tribute to the spectrum of colors symbolized by its namesake. This one-off supercar is distinguished by its AI Aqua Rainbow exterior, a futuristic hue that extends to the Trident on the hubcaps, setting a bold stylistic statement. The interior continues this colorful theme, with AI Aqua Rainbow stitching adorning the armrest, central tunnel (crafted from prestigious ICE leather for the first time), and steering wheel.
Unique details such as the rainbow-colored ‘+’ and ‘-’ signs on the steering wheel paddles and the laser-cut ‘MC20 Iris’ lettering on the door sill add to the car’s distinctive appeal. The engine compartment and boot also feature the vibrant stitching, underscoring the meticulous attention to detail that defines the MC20 Iris. This vehicle seamlessly combines Maserati’s rich heritage with a forward-looking design, making it a standout creation in the brand’s illustrious history.
A Testament to Maserati’s Customization Excellence
Both the Quattroporte Grand Finale and the MC20 Iris exemplify Maserati’s commitment to delivering personalized, high-quality vehicles that meet the unique desires of their customers. These two cars not only highlight the brand’s storied past but also pave the way for its innovative future, ensuring Maserati remains at the forefront of luxury automotive craftsmanship.
