MODENA (August 5, 2024) – On Wednesday 31 July in Stresa, in the enchanting setting of Lake Maggiore, two special Maseratis – symbols of the Modena-based company’s most exclusive and extraordinary custom-built production – were delivered to a passionate Trident customer in the US, a significant entrepreneur in the biomedical sector.

One is the last Quattroporte – as well as the final model made with the V8 combustion engine – renamed for the grandiose Quattroporte Grand Finale farewell from the automotive scene. The other, MC20 Iris, referring to all the colors of the rainbow (iris is the Latin equivalent) that feature all over the car, inside and out.

Thanks to the fine details and complex workmanship used in both cars, designed as part of the Maserati Fuoriserie customization program, the House of the Trident has produced two unique creations to fulfil the requirements of a customer who has witnessed the customization of two leading lights in the brand’s history becoming a reality: the Quattroporte luxury saloon, for six generations the perfect interpreter of Maserati excellence, and the more modern Maserati MC20, an iconic super sports car with an unmistakable style.

The exterior of the Quattroporte Grand Finale features the elegant Blu Nobile color, with the body kit made of carbon fiber, painted in the same tone, and brake calipers in brushed aluminum. The last Quattroporte Maserati will ever make is equipped with the unforgettable, powerful 572-hp V8 engine. On the windscreen, and inside the driver door, the identification number of the car is imprinted: 999999. A custom cover has also been created to house the roaring engine, imprinted with the signatures of the Fuoriserie team and the engineers who worked on the project.

The interiors are a tribute to meticulous Italian artisanship and renowned mastery, to enhance the high-quality materials and meet the customer’s specific requests: these include the steering wheel with burl accents, door panels in tan, A-pillar in black leather, Trident logo with black stitching on the headrest, leather-lined boot and passenger door handle accents in burl. The special ‘Grand Finale’ badge on the central tunnel, and the dedicated door sill with the same wording, give the Quattroporte Grand Finale a decidedly distinctive appearance, for a car that even in its latest version is confirmed as an undisputed icon.

The MC20 Iris is another very special car, the result of the equally precise and detailed artisanship of Maserati engineers, who requested greatest experts in the industry, for a final result that would be difficult to replicate. The car’s common thread is the rainbow (iris), a motif personally chosen by the customer. The lively and futuristic AI Aqua Rainbow color distinguishes the exterior and is reproduced on the Trident in plain sight in the center of the hubcaps, defining this car’s strong stylistic personality.

In the cabin, the AI Aqua Rainbow color enhances the stitching that serves as the standout feature on the armrest, on the central tunnel – both in ICE leather, the first time a tunnel has been made of this prestigious material – and on the steering wheel.

The ‘+’ and ‘-’ signs on the steering wheel paddles are also the same colour as the viewfinder on the upper rim of the steering wheel, rather than in white. The door sill is embellished with the laser-cut ‘MC20 Iris’ lettering; the AI Aqua Rainbow color returns in the stitching, the standout feature on the engine compartment and the boot. In this specific, exclusive guise packed with refined details, the MC20 is once again a first of its kind, a car that combines Maserati tradition and the best elements that characterize the brand’s future.
