Soft spots on the inside

maserati ghibli interior

The interior on this particular Ghibli looked quite nice with all its two-toned leather. The one real weak spot was right smack in the middle, where that computer screen is located. It's surrounded by an unfortunate sort of cheap and hollow-feeling pastic. It doesn't exactly say "ultra-luxury," although it does say "Ghibli" in chrome script, as if you needed to be reminded what car you were driving.

The gear shift lever also takes a bit of training and, even when I'd thought I had it down, I kept fumbling to get into Reverse or Park when needed. These are quibbles, though, not major things.
