I am actually not really into Supercars. They look amazing, no doubt. Both in design and numbers. But the lack of practicability (damn you filthy speed bumbs) would let them sit in the garage most of the time.
That's why I am really glad that there are cars like the Maserati Levante which is more supercar than your ordinary SUV but you still can get a beer crate into the trunk :D

That's a good point, and with lifestyle changes nowadays, sports cars aren't as popular as they used to be. It's certainly my preferred way of moving around, if I ever have the chance to get one, despite all the hassles of a tiny luggage space, and the god-damned speedbumps!
That said, one can certainly have a huge smile and go fast without compromise, as proven by SUVs like the Levante, or its smaller cousin, the Alfa Romeo Stelvio. It's good to see that there's an ever growing band of fun, sporty, and fast SUVs to carve up a mountain pass, while still being able to fit a baby seat! :-D
Fun fact: The higher-end Trofeo trim of the Levante has a Ferrari twin-turbo V8, so it's mechanically a supercar, just like the 488 XD
Funny that you mention it, i actually own a Stelvio :D
The 2,2L Diesel tho
Pic from January this year. Best car I have ever had <3
Awesome! It doesn't matter much that's a diesel, because as far as dynamics go, it's magnificent. I'm glad that Alfa Romeo is taking the 'top-down' approach to making cars, developing the high-end variants first like the Quadrifoglio, and then trickling in down to the base models. That way, they all have the same sporty DNA <3
