Reports place the entry price for the new four-door at at less than &euro;55,000 ($74k), significantly less than the $120k starting price for the current Quattroporte.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, plans are also underway for a new full-size Quattroporte, giving buyers in the market for an exotic Italian super-saloon twice the variety to choose from. Expect the next-generation QP, then, to go slightly farther up-market to make way for its upcoming kid brother.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/maserati-quattroporte-sport-gt-s-awards-edition\/low\/\">2011 Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT S &#8220;Awards Edition&#8221;<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/maserati-quattroporte-sport-gt-s-awards-edition\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/maseratiquattroporteawardsedition000_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/maserati-quattroporte-sport-gt-s-awards-edition\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/maseratiquattroporteawardsedition001_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/maserati-quattroporte-sport-gt-s-awards-edition\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/maseratiquattroporteawardsedition002_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/maserati-quattroporte-sport-gt-s-awards-edition\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/maseratiquattroporteawardsedition003_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/maserati-quattroporte-sport-gt-s-awards-edition\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/maseratiquattroporteawardsedition004_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n[Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoexpress.co.uk\/news\/autoexpressnews\/251065\/maseratis_new_baby.html\">Auto Express<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/04\/21\/maserati-reportedly-to-build-sub-quattroporte-m5-rival\/\">Maserati reportedly to build sub-Quattroporte M5 rival<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Wed, 21 Apr 2010 16:28:00 EST.
