Maserati will take centre stage at FuoriConcorso 2025 with two show-stopping cars: the road-ready GT2 Stradale and the track-focused MCXtrema. Set against the stunning backdrop of Lake Como from 24–25 May, this marks Maserati’s debut at one of Italy’s most exclusive automotive gatherings.
Hosted at the historic Villa del Grumello and Villa Sucota, FuoriConcorso has become a magnet for collectors, connoisseurs, and admirers of automotive beauty since its launch in 2019.
A Festival of Italian Speed
This year’s theme, “Velocissimo – Italian Race Cars”, pays tribute to Italy’s most iconic competition machines. It’s a celebration of speed, design, and motorsport heritage. Maserati fits the theme with effortless confidence.
With a legacy rooted in racing and refined engineering, the brand will showcase two models that embody its dual personality – elegance and extreme performance.
Let’s take a closer look.
GT2 Stradale: A Track Star Tamed for the Road
The Maserati GT2 Stradale makes its first appearance in the striking “Bianco Audace” finish, specially developed by Officine Fuoriserie Maserati. It’s not merely a toned-down racer. It’s a blend of daily usability and motorsport spirit.
- Based on the competition GT2 model
- Powered by a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 Nettuno engine
- Produces 640 CV (471 kW)
- 0–100 km/h in 2.7 seconds
- Top speed: over 320 km/h
- 60 kg lighter than the MC20
This is Maserati’s most powerful road car still using a pure internal combustion engine. The GT2 Stradale delivers more than just numbers – it offers road presence, poise, and everyday comfort. It shows that Maserati hasn’t forgotten how to make a car both thrilling and liveable.
MCXtrema: Pure Racing, No Compromises
Sharing the spotlight is the MCXtrema, presented in a bold “Blu Extrema” finish. Unlike the GT2 Stradale, this one doesn’t even try to be road legal. Built purely for the track, it’s limited to just 62 units worldwide.
- Also powered by the Nettuno 3.0-litre V6
- Tuned to produce 740 CV
- Developed exclusively for collectors and track-day enthusiasts
- Features bespoke aerodynamics and advanced weight-saving tech
What sets the MCXtrema apart is its focused mission: no concessions, no distractions, just speed and grip. Every detail, from the suspension to the airflow management, is designed for maximum lap-time domination. It’s as extreme as the name suggests – a raw, beautiful expression of what Maserati can do when the road no longer limits them.
Why FuoriConcorso Matters
FuoriConcorso isn’t your average car event. It’s a curated experience where heritage meets design in an intimate lakeside setting. Cars are hand-picked, with many drawn from private collections or shown for the very first time.
Maserati’s appearance here is a statement. It reflects the brand’s confidence in its current design language and engineering prowess. It also signals a renewed commitment to blending innovation with the brand’s traditional Italian flair.
Maserati’s Modern Identity: Race-Bred, Road-Ready
Maserati’s latest offerings underline its evolving identity. On one hand, the GT2 Stradale reflects the brand’s desire to create fast, focused road cars. On the other, the MCXtrema pushes boundaries – a car designed for those who seek purity in performance.
This dual approach isn’t just clever branding. It’s a calculated strategy to serve both loyalists and new fans. Maserati is acknowledging its past while carving out a future that’s exciting, bold, and distinctly Italian.
Final Thoughts
Maserati’s upcoming presence at FuoriConcorso 2025 is a celebration. A celebration of speed, style, and the spirit of Italian engineering. Both the GT2 Stradale and MCXtrema show different sides of the same coin. They’re bold, beautiful, and built with purpose.
