All truth i had no idea Maserati has been around for 100 years. Today (December 2nd) is the kick off of their year long anniversary celebration leading up to December 1, 2014. Exactly 100 years to the date of founding.

First move is the special Centennial logo, no word on if we will be seeing that logo on vehicles or not.

everything you could want to know about the 100 year anniversay celebrations can be found on the Maserati100 website...

wow, can't believe it's already been 100 years.
I wonder if they have anything major planned to mark their 100 year milestone. Seems like it's nothing more than celebrations

 

[pitchfork]

Wow. Nice round number.

Good job Maserati.

the only non british car bond ever used was the Z8 and that was mad product placement on the part of BMW. Usually Astons, once a Lotus...

would be nice to see this badge on some 2013 2014 models as a special edition

 

[mavante]

It would be. some car makers do that, they add a "xx/xxx Edition Badge" to cars. We might see it on the new ghibli, quattroporte, and maybe more.

What a great time for Maserati to have its 100 year anniversary. The company is having a huge resurgence. Everyone wants a Maserati right now anyway. Offering limited edition anniversary models would bring in more customers or at least get some customers to spend some more money then they would have otherwise. What brands have made anniversary vehicles before? I know the new Mustang will have some anniversary models coming out in the new year.

100 years is a big deal.

at least ford represented properly
i'd expect maserati to do better than that but they haven't.

anyone get any confirmation if Maserati is putting badges on the new cars for the anniversary?

still no info on it.
i doubt it will happen, if it was to happen, it would have happened already, probably days or weeks before the milestone.

Awesome!
Got to love those exclusive things only the press gets.
Now they need to roll out something for the public.

Just noticed that too, good looking out. This just makes it even more cool that they made it a car part.
