That car is gorgeous. I was never a fan of the old coupes, they looked kind of awkward to me. Their 4-door sedan is amazing though.

I believe they were owned by Ferrari when the Quatroportte was designed... which would make it a Pininfarina design.

Maserati is still owned by Ferrari, and is still having their cars designed by Pininfarina...

They're owned by Fiat... though Pininifarina might still be pinning their designs.
