Luciano Pavarotti's Ave Maria in a Maserati

2009 Maserati Gran Turismo S

Modena, Italy – In the heart of the city on a little street we are told to look up at a building. All I see are windows closed. On this unassuming street, in this little apartment, I am told, lived the Maestro Luciano Pavarotti.

It is only fitting that while we’re driving a 2009 Maserati Gran Turismo S through the countryside with my bestie Holly Reich and you get to listen to Pavarotti’s great voice booming down from the heavens while we drive this luxury sedan.
