- Walkaround & driving review for a 2005 Maserati MC12.
The Maserati MC12 (Tipo M144S) is a limited production two-seater sports car produced by Italian car maker Maserati to allow a racing variant to compete in the FIA GT Championship. The car entered production in 2004, with 25 cars produced. A further 25 were produced in 2005 after the FIA changed the rules and reduced the Maximum length allowed. The second batch of 25 are 150mm shorter than the originals, making a total of 50 cars available for customers. With the addition of 12 cars produced for racing, only a total of 62 of these cars were ever produced.
Maserati designed and built the car on the chassis of the Enzo Ferrari, but the final car is much larger and has a lower drag coefficient. The MC12 is longer, wider and taller and has a sharper nose and smoother curves than the Enzo Ferrari, which has quicker acceleration, shorter braking distance, and a higher top speed. The top speed of the Maserati MC12 is 330 kilometres per hour (205 mph) whereas the top speed of the Enzo Ferrari is 350 kilometres per hour (217.5 mph).
The MC12 was developed to signal Maserati's return to racing after 37 years. The road version was produced to homologate the race version. One requirement for participation in the FIA GT is the production of at least 25 road cars. Three GT1 race cars were entered into the FIA GT with great success. Maserati began racing the MC12 in the FIA GT toward the end of the 2004 season, winning the race held at the Zhuhai International Circuit. The racing MC12s were entered into the American Le Mans Series races in 2005 but exceeded the size restrictions and consequently paid weight penalties due to excess range.

Don't think I didn't know the Gran Turismo lobby music playing in the background. I prefer the Maserati over the Enzo that's like preferring one supermodel over another you win no matter what.
This Maserati is absolutely stunning!!! Thanks for sharing the information & this fantastic automobile!! 👍👍
Rolling Artwork
Thanks for sharing, I remember seeing this car in person in Kelowna BC back in 2010. It was part of a group of super cars that included an Enzo and Ford GT a few Lamborghini ' it was a group of owners that came over from Calgary. .. oil money 😁
Loving the content
Great vid............................ 👍
My Maseratti does one-eighty-five ( 200 plus )
I lost my license, now I don't drive
I have a limo, ride in the back
I lock the doors in case I'm attacked
Ah yes, the long-tail Enzo, built for Le Mans, much prettier than the car it shares its underpinnings with
Although based on the Enzo monocoque and drive train as a starting point, Maserati modified and re-engineered the car. Longer wheelbase snd a re-engineered intake and vavle train for an example.
Yeah big difference
They had one at John Scotti in Montreal this summer in the showroom....I feel priviliged to have seen one in person in my life!!!
