Maserati sure seems to be milking the GranTurismo franchise for all its worth these days. In addition to plenty of limited editions and sport models for both the coupe and convertible, Maserati recently launched the MC version of the hardtop.

Auto Talk: Cheaper baby NSX back under consideration at Acura
Back in the salad days before the financial upheaval of 2008, Honda’s Acura division was reportedly planning to build not one, but two new NSX models. The first was/is the on again off again heir to the NSX throne (then a V10 rear-drive supercar, now the much ballyhooed hybrid all-wheel-drive affair revealed at January’s Detroit Auto Show). The second was to be a smaller, less expensive version, creatively dubbed by Honda internals as the “Small NSX.” Never let engineers name your pets, folks. Funk Flex
Auto Talk: Only about 5% of Chrysler dealers will sell SRT Viper
Back in May, we were the first to reveal that Chrysler was going to be requiring that its dealers meet certain special criteria to sell the 2013 SRT Viper. Now, USA Today is reporting that no more than 6.5 percent of Chrysler’s U.S. dealerships will earn the right to sell the new Viper. Of the 2,300 dealerships, “only about 100 to 150” will satisfy the qualifications SRT has deemed necessary to satisfy the “different kind of a customer” and “different approach” that the Viper requires. That’s far fewer outlets than the one-fifth of Chrysler’s dealer body that was rumored back in July. Funk Flex
