If you thought Rolls-Royce had cornered the market on special editions for the Middle East, Maserati would like you to think again. But only if you’ve got a big wad of cash and actually, you know… live in the Middle East.
The Italian automaker just took the wraps off a limited edition of its GranTurismo S, specially outfitted with items from the company’s MC Sport Line. The car, decked out in a matte white “ice” paint scheme, was unveiled at the Yas Marina Circuit that just recently played host to the inaugural Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
Not much in the way of details were given, but only 12 examples will be produced: one for each of the twelve Maserati dealerships in the region, also honoring the twelve trophies (including constructors’, drivers’ and teams’ titles) that the GranTurismo’s big brother, the MC12, has racked up in the FIA GT Championship since 2005. The Trident marque has also announced a second run of 11 examples decked out in matte white pearl for its domestic Italian market.
