Which handles better?

OldCrow7xx · 06-14-2019, 01:18 PM

2015 Maserati Ghibli S Q4 w/ Sport Suspension Package and Sport package

or

2013 BMW 335i X Drive w/ M sport package....

Someone mentioned my car(the BMW) would be very different with coil overs upgraded.

Wondering how the car now, and the car with that mod, would compare to Ghibli? Theres a guy in town here offering me a silly good price and I am tempted to taste the goodness of Italian.

Thanks!

The Ghibli is a badged Chrysler 300, you don't want one.

2013 BMW 335i xDrive with KW Street Comfort coilovers ($2K with installation) would be a wiser choice.

To enjoy Ghibli suspension dynamics, the vehicle would have to spend more time outside the repair shop than inside.

The Ghibli S Q4 is way too heavy. 4124 lbs.

Guy was just making a hot take. But the Chrysler parts definitely suck. Door gap is horrendous. The infotainment design is the worst part about the car.

But a twin turbo Ferrari V6 that can be chipped to 500 wheel for $1400....

20 inch rims with cross drilled brake kit....

And those looks my god she's gorgeous!

Guy is only asking 28 and I'm gonna nudge him towards 25. It's only for 18,000 miles hahaha

what handles better is a bmw with Kw's for less money. it's lighter and better balanced. that looks better though if it's your thing
