 1956 Porsche 550 Spyder recreation.  Incredible car with extensive use of aluminum and amazing detail work per the pictures.  Car is in great condition - extremely clean, looks like a brand new car.  Was built by Fibersteel in California at a cost over $100,000.  This particular car is a very close replica of Porsche VIN 0018.  The body is a work of art with extensive beautiful aluminum work which was done by Fibersteel.  From the cockpit, engine bay, gas tank, wheel wells, brake ducts, etc., shows the fine craftmanship.  Fibersteel no longer offers this type of replica due to the amount of time and money it costs to make it (they only made 7 of this type).  The wheels are authentic with vintage Dunlop racing bias ply tires which are period correct and blemish free.  Complete leatherette interior with correct style shifter and emergency brake, billet aluminum pedals, and original brand new Porsche 550 gauges.  The car appears perfect due to it's $15,000 paint job that took months of work with block sanding and gap filling.  Also added the real venting modification for the carb access exactly per the originals.  You never see this detail in other tribute cars.  Bilstein shocks all the way around so the car has excellent handling and balance.  The engine was built by CB Performance of California.  This 2332cc blue printed and dyno test motor with 165hp engine gives this lightweight Spyder (1600 lbs) excellent acceleration and driveability.  The car is truly amazing and appears as new and stops traffic every where!  Incredible detail in every way.

NO RESERVE!  Bid with confidence.  Title is clean in hand.  Title is for an assembled vehicle.  $1000 deposit due within 48 hours of auction close.  Balance due within 5 business days following auction.  Cash or wire transfer is acceptable for payment.  I can assist with coordinating vehicle pick up but shipment is the responsibility of the Buyer.  Car is located in Austin, Texas, U.S.A.

Slow Chinese market delays Maserati and Alfa Romeo models

Thu, Dec 3 2015

We already told you that Alfa Romeo was delaying the Giulia sedan and an unnamed CUV, but now things are getting worse. According to Bloomberg, Maserati has delayed the Alfieri sports car. And it's all China's fault. The faltering Chinese domestic market, which is experiencing its slowest period of growth in nearly three decades, is forcing Fiat Chrysler to rethink its plans for its Italian models, Bloomberg reports. Rather than going for models that would likely be popular in China, including the Alfa CUV and a larger sedan, the company will shift its focus and bring out updated MiTo and Giulietta hatchbacks, both of which would play better in Europe, an unnamed source within FCA told Bloomberg. This news is notable because it shows that FCA boss Sergio Marchionne's ambitious product transformation is not progressing as smoothly as planned. In the MiTo's case, the company is willing to go back on its original strategy. The subcompact hatch wasn't supposed to survive beyond 2016, but Bloomberg is reporting an update is due by the middle of next year. As for Maserati, well, there's not much to say. The Alfieri was supposed to go on sale next year, and now it's not. There's no word on how (or even if) Maserati's priorities will shift to another vehicle, or if this is simply a matter of money being distributed away from one of FCA's brands and toward another.

Why Maserati won't share the Nettuno V6 with its siblings

Mon, Apr 4 2022

Maserati spent a great deal of time and resources developing a twin-turbocharged, 3.0-liter V6 called Nettuno. It made its debut in 2020 in the MC20, and it will be available in the Grecale Trofeo in 2022, but Autoblog learned that the six won't travel outside of the trident family. "We want to keep the Nettuno engine as a signature for the brand. It was developed with the aim of being uniquely associated with the Maserati brand, so it was designed and engineered specifically for Maserati. It's technically feasible to apply it to other cars [in the Stellantis group], but we want to keep it proprietary. We have it in the MC20 and now in the Grecale; there will be other uses for it in the future, but always in Maserati cars," Federico De Medio, Maserati's head of vehicle validation, told Autoblog on the sidelines of the Grecale launch. While he stopped short of providing details about the other uses, De Medio hinted that Nettuno will gradually replace the Ferrari-derived V8 that Maserati has used for many years. He explained that the project's goal was to design a six-cylinder engine with V8-like power. Does that mean that a V8 with V10-like power is on its way? Nope, it sounds like the eight-cylinder's days are numbered in the Maserati line-up. Asked how long the V8 had left to live, De Medio replied that "it depends on the life of the product itself, so the response will be provided by the market and by regulations." And, how about a new V8 designed in-house? "Never say never, but for now we just launched Nettuno so let's enjoy the V6," he answered. What's certain is that the Levante and the Quattroporte won't need a V8 for much longer: they're going electric in the coming years. We know the Ghibli is on its way out, so that leaves the next-generation Gran Turismo as the only candidate for a V8. Nothing is official, but our crystal ball tells us it's more realistic to expect that the coupe will make its debut with a V6 than with a V8. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

2021 Acura NSX leads this month's list of discounts

Tue, Nov 9 2021

The 2021 Acura NSX is an especially good deal this month. Not only does it carry the torch as the vehicle with the biggest discount measured by the percentage off its sticker price, that discount is also the largest of any vehicle currently sold in the United States when measured in sheer size. Here are the numbers: The average sticker price of all 2021 NSX models sits at $161,040. Buyers are paying an average transaction price of $142,907. That equals a discount of 11.3%, or $18,133 of savings. No other vehicle comes close to that kind of discount, with the next largest being for the 2021 BMW 7 Series. Buyers of that luxury sedan are saving an average of $11,661 for a transaction price of $94,884. There's another sharp dropoff after the BMW. In third place is the 2021 Maserati Quattroporte, which actually kicks off a party of savings at Trident dealers across the United States. The '21 Quattroporte is seeing $7,743 cut off its sticker price for an average transaction of $121,962. After that comes the 2021 Maserati Ghibli, which is averaging $7,394 off for a sign-on-the-dotted-line price of $78,592. If you don't want a sedan, the 2021 Maserati Levante's $6,738 discount equals an average transaction price of $78,592.
