How would you classify a maserati?
I had a debate with my friend over whether Maserati's are sports cars or luxury cars. What do you think?
Both of course, but I'd say sports cars first. They look sporty and have great performance, first of all. But of course Bentleys also have those features and I'd consider Bentleys to be more of luxury cars. I guess it just has to do more with the company history. maserati has had a history of sports cars and racing, while Bentley has been known as a luxury car marque. Bentley doesn't have anything like the MC12, for example, which is purely a sports car. I also think the Gran Turismo just looks more exotic than any other luxury car out there. And even though the Quattroporte looks less exotic (but no less gorgeous), you can't deny the sound:

well maseratis are both sport and luxury cars but perhaps the coupes are more sporty and the saloons are more luxurious

Depends on the model.
Quattroporte=Luxury car
Gran Turismo or Gran Sport=Sports car.

A combination of the two which equals out to be a Grand Touring car. A Grand Touring car is based on performance with a great deal of luxury being emphasized for long road trips.

The coupes, like the Gran Turismo, are sportier as they have more performance. The sedans, like the Quattroporte, are more luxurious as they have more space.
