Hi everyone,I have been reading for a while and this is my first thread..I hope you all can give me some info.
I am considering to buy a second hand Maserati Coupe Cambiocorsa (04 onwards) or a 911 C4S (996) or a 997 Carrera,I lived in a snowy area, so i lean towards the C4s even though i like the Maser very much. i decided to buy second hand because i think these cars presents a very good value after depreciation (esp the maser). I would like to hear your experience about owning the Maser Coupe and i also have a few questions that i hope you guys can help me with.

- Are the Masers as reliable as the porsche? or at least not way off the porsche.
-What about maintanance? are they a lot more expensive and frequent as the porsche or are they comparable?
-What about those cluthes, do they blow up frequently?
-Porsche offers a certified pre owned program which runs 6 years/100k mile, so if i get an 04 it will run until 2010, do Masers have this kind of extended warranty program?
- I read that the Maser Coupe are due for a new model in 08-09, but i found out here that it is getting a new model next year, which one is true?

Generally, i am worried about the reliability of the car, so those that has experience with this car, pls give some comments. I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks..
