Quattroporte Preview Night in NYC

November 1, 2003: A special "invitation-only" gala preview of the Maserati Quattroporte is being held in cities around the U.S. Here in New York we "just got ours." TMC members and invitees of Maserati North America were personally invited to review Maserati's latest automotive achievement—the 2005 model Quattroporte sedan. Amongst the special festivities during this week was a "VIP" evening on Thursday at which famous Russian violinist Sergei Krilov performed a solo on a rare, original 1715 Stradivarius violin built by the famous Cremona master artisan, Antonio Stradivari [1644-1737]. It’s one of 630-650 examples still known to be in existence and insured for this event for 6 million dollars. Thanks go to the Italian city of Cremona for the loan of this rare instrument for the event.
