Maserati officials have confirmed that a convertible version of the GranTurismo will be making it to showrooms by March 2010. They have revealed a few new details about the car, which is expected to be called the GranTurismo Spyder. Maserati is yet to divulge if the car will sport a conventional canvas roof or a new hard-top, but according to Car and Driver it will come with a traditional cloth top and a price tag of $130,000.
This puts it in clear competition with cars like the Mercedes Benz SL, Aston Martin Vantage Roadster, BMW M6 Cabrio, and Jaguar XKR Convertible. The Spyder will likely come standard with the new 434hp 4.7L V8 engine from the more recent GranTurismo S.
