Mansory's social media was quiet for a few days before gaining images and details of its latest project. The car in question is a Maserati MC20 Cielo, which features multiple add-ons on the outside, a reupholstered interior, and more power.
The exterior stands out the most, as the controversial tuner strapped multiple aftermarket components to it. It has new attachments at the front, sides, and rear and features a vented front hood, new rear intake surrounds, flashy side skirts, fresh side mirror caps, a new diffuser, and a ginormous wing.
Due to the yellow paint finish, which was also replicated on the brake calipers visible from behind the V-spoke alloys that also came from the aftermarket world, the Italian supercar looks even flashier. It is a mix of the same hues on the inside, too, where it has a lot of new suede and leather, yellow double stitching, new floor mats, and the tuner's name on the headrests, steering wheel, seatbelts, and other components.
In recent years, Mansory has developed a taste for extra oomph. Thus, most of their projects boast more power than their stock selves, and so does this Maserati MC20 Cielo. According to the tuner, it has 710 horsepower (720 ps/530 kW) and 627 pound-feet (850 Nm) of torque, taking only 2.7 seconds to sprint to 62 mph (100 kph) and tapping out at 205 miles per hour or 330 kilometers per hour.

It is said to burn the equivalent of 19.4 US mpg (12.1 l/100 km) and emits 288 g/km combined. But that probably interests very few deep-pocketed enthusiasts who have this model on their shopping list. What we should mention instead is the stock car's output and torque, which is rated at 621 hp (630 ps/463 kW) and 538 lb-ft (730 Nm). The 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 rockets it to 62 mph in around three seconds, and flat-out, it can do 199 mph (320 kph).
As you can assume, all of the things fitted by Mansory to this Maserati MC20 Cielo also fit the fixed-roof version of the Italian supercar. Since they haven't mentioned a word about pricing, you will have to reach out to them if you are curious about how much everything adds up. Nevertheless, the complete tuning job will likely set you back a small fortune, as everything Mansory touches tends to cost an arm and a leg.
We have no idea whether this tuned Maserati MC20 Cielo is for sale or if it was modified at the request of one of the tuner's wealthy clients, yet we lean towards the latter. Otherwise, they would have said something about it in the short caption accompanying the pics. So, what's your take on this project?
