Quick Review : Maserati Gran Turismo S




What I like :

-Engine sound
-Sharp steering
-Powerslide

What I dont like :

-Long wheelbase




Ratings
Ratings are the numeric scores that I personally give to the car, consisting of sense of balance, thrill, and driving confidence. The value of each rating is out of 10. For example, if the score is 2.1 , that means its 2.1 out of 10. Sense of balance is the balance of everything. A car that is too easy to drive would not be exciting enough to drive for a long period of time, while a car that is too difficult to drive requires a lot of concentration or patience in order to bring the car around corners. It can also be the balance between oversteer and understeer, sharpness and stability, and so on. Thrill is the level of excitement that you get from the driving experience, often associated with the sense of fear. Driving confidence is the amount of confidence that the car gives to you. Basically, a confident inspiring car would give the driver a sense of courage to give out more of its power around corners.


-Sense of balance : 7.1
-Thrill : 7.6
-Driving confidence : 7.5


Summary
Nevermind the long wheelbase, it is a proper driving machine, and a good one.
