Maserati’s flagship supercar, the MC20, is facing a surprising sales struggle, with dealers across the United States slashing prices to move inventory. One of the most striking discounts comes from Van Nuys Maserati in Sherman Oaks, California, where a brand-new 2022 MC20 coupe is listed for just $208,000—an astonishing $85,895 off its original MSRP of $293,895.
This is not a fluke. The heavily discounted MC20, with only delivery mileage and full factory warranties, reflects a broader trend. Van Nuys Maserati has several other MC20 models on sale, including 2023 models discounted by over $20,000. Among them, a 2023 MC20 Cielo Spyder in Giallo Genio (yellow) is priced at $270,000, offering open-top thrills at a reduced cost.
The trend extends far beyond California. Maserati of Naperville in Illinois is offering over $23,000 off select 2024 MC20 Cielo models. In Kansas, Aristocrat Motors lists a red 2023 MC20 hardtop at $249,950, slashing $37,545 off MSRP. Meanwhile, Maserati of Bergen County in New Jersey is offering discounts as high as $70,197 on some MC20s, including a 2023 model in Orange Zest, now priced at $209,998 after sitting unsold for over 500 days.
The Maserati MC20 is not lacking in appeal. Its twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter Nettuno V6 produces a hefty 621 horsepower, paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. The supercar boasts a stunning design, cutting-edge aerodynamics, and luxurious Italian craftsmanship. Performance enthusiasts and reviewers alike have praised the MC20 for its driving dynamics and striking looks.
So why the steep discounts? It seems that despite its qualities, the MC20 is struggling to find buyers in a competitive supercar market dominated by established brands like Ferrari, Porsche, and Lamborghini. Maserati’s lower brand cachet in the performance car segment and ambitious pricing may also be factors.
For those seeking a bargain on a high-performance supercar, now might be the perfect time to consider the Maserati MC20. With steep discounts available nationwide, this overlooked gem could be the ultimate deal for enthusiasts willing to look beyond the usual suspects in the supercar world.
