Platform

Unless there are no objections raised, I plan to add that this car uses the Chrylser LX platform. The Related category is not correct (engines aside) as M157 is derived from the Chrysler 300's platform - admittedly with a unique suspension and powertrain options. 73.48.150.124 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 00:32, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So? It's a platform used by Maserati and named as such. U¹ _quattro TALK 20:05, 30 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Predecessor

Predecessor for this car should be a car of the same body or market placement (ie executive saloon: 430). 3200 GT was succeded by Coupé so can't be a predecessor for this Ghibli. It is illogical. 3200 GT was not a sucessor for every biturbo, just the 2-door Ghibli. 4-door cars were suceeded by Quattroporte IV. YBSOne (talk) 18:02, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry but this doesn't work like you think. It works what the company thinks and according to company records and the automotive press, the 3200 GT succeeded the BiTurbo and it's derivatives. The Quattroporte is a separate line of cars which has had its own successors. U¹ _quattro TALK 20:04, 30 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And FYI. The Quattroporte IV was itself based on the BiTurbo so it never succeeded Amy of the Biturbo family cars. It was a separate flagship model. U¹ _quattro TALK 20:05, 30 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

First of all 3200 GT and Quattrroporte Evoluzione IV were both made in the same time. What is the logic that a coupe is the predecessor to the executive saloon line? 3200 GT already has it's successor. Also what is the connection between Biturbo-family and new Ghibli? Your logic is flawed. YBSOne (talk) 20:51, 30 April 2019 (UTC) Secondly Ghibli 336 although Biturbo-based was a successor to every Biturbo-family-coupe like Quattroporte IV although Ghibli-based was a successor to every Biturbo-family-saloon. Pages says so. YBSOne (talk) 21:00, 30 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
