Top 3 extras you should retrofit on a used Maserati Ghibli
Maserati is well known for its two-door performance cars and even more for its unique exhaust note. One other aspect in which the Italian marque excels at is its stylish design. The Maserati Ghibli was first unveiled to the world 8 years ago and yet it looks just as impressive as the first time it broke cover. We, however, list the top three extras you can retrofit on a used Maserati Ghibli to spruce it up a bit.
The Ghibli name has only made its appearance three times in the history of Maserati. The first two times Maserati adorned vehicles with Ghibli nomenclature was on two-door vehicles, the first produced during 1967–1973 while the second Ghibli was sold between 1992–1998. The current Ghibli is, of course, a four-door sedan, however, is no less of a performance car like the first two.

The current Ghibli was first unveiled during 2013 and made waves as it incorporated diesel engines in the range, a first for the Italian automaker. Whether you are buying a new or used Maserati Ghibli, there are a few optional accessories that will not only improve the styling of the vehicle but also improve the occupant experience.
1. Carbon pack
Although the Ghibli is a four-door sedan, it still retains its sporty heritage through its performance engines and handling characteristics, made possible by the advanced suspension system. Whether you own or are considering a standard Ghibli, GranSport, GranLusso or S GranSport, you can enquire about the optional Carbon pack.
The Carbon pack transforms the aesthetic nature of the Ghibli into that of a performance car. Fitting the pack will result in a variety of exterior trim items being finished in glossy carbon fibre. These items include; window mirrors, door handles, front grille, front splitter, rear spoiler, B- and C-pillar finishes, wheel centre-caps and front door sills.
2. Wheels
Another way you can transform or update the exterior styling of the Maserati Ghibli is through fitting optional wheel options. One of the optional wheel options is the Mercurio series. The design is familiar with Maserati vehicles, however, this particular set comes finished in a glossy black with silver details. These wheels, measuring 20-inches, are also larger than the standard wheel.
For those looking for more aggressive options, Maserati offers the Proteo range which measures 19-inch in size but comes finished in matt black with optional red detailing also available.
3. Universal tablet holder
While the driver is having fun piloting the Ghibli, passengers in the rear seats might also want some form of entertainment. Maserati has developed a universal tablet holder for its standard seats. The holder is created using black soft-touch material with silkscreened Maserati branding and installs to the rear of the headrests of the front seats.
The holder enables rear occupants to securely mount their smartphone or tablet devices and consume content handsfree. While the electronic devices can easily be removed for safe storage or use between trips, the holders can remain installed without compromising the comfort of the rear occupants.
