The Maserati name is a legendary marquee from the early days of Formula 1 when the cars where shaped like cigars and drivers wore leather helmets. The name never acheived the glory of Ferrari since the company went belly up in the 1970s. In 1997 Ferrari revived the name by purchasing the company. Ferrari helped to bolster the names cache by creating a top-of-the-line racer by taking a race ready Ferrari Enzo with a fatter body and slapped the Maserati name on it. The MC 12 is basically a racing car trimmed out for the road. The result is a tough to drive, but extremely fast exotci car that beats Ferrari Enzo on the Top Gear track.
