Condition

Yes, this 19-year-old car has only 23,120 miles (more about that in the History)! It is in very good to excellent condition. Mechanically, there are no known issues and I would describe it as in excellent condition. It passed a 27 point inspection and emissions test in 2013. The exterior is in good to very good condition with the original paint job, but five (5) small dents and scratches (see photos of three of the dents and scratches. Two of the dents and scratches are so small that I was not able to capture them with the camera). I would describe just one of the dents as significant. It is over the passenger side, rear tire well (see photo), and there does appear to be some rust beginning to form. The gray leather interior is in very good to excellent condition, with no tears or significant scratches. It comes from a smoke free environment. The speaker grill in the passenger door is slightly discolored. The car comes from a smoke free environment, and as far as I know, no one has ever smoked in it. It does not smell of cigarette smoke.

The one, perhaps, significant problem is that the hardtop convertible feature DOES NOT work, and as a result, there is a constant chime sound when operating the car. I say perhaps significant because if you are patient, if you have time and it you are good with cars, there is a great likelihood that this problem is fixable. There are all sorts of resources online where, if you have the time, you can go and figure out the hard top issue. I started down that road and got as far as a computer program that tells me that the problem is a "Damaged Header Limit Switch," with "Error Codes" 2, 4, 37, 21 and 25 (the experienced Spyder owners know what this means). Again, this problem may be easily solvable for someone who has time and patience, but I decided to stop there and list this car "as is" here. There is also a problem with the alarm system that I was not able to figure out. Sometimes when you lock the car using the key, the alarm sounds. You can turn the alarm off by inserting the key and turning it. But, this is a problem to be addressed.

Features

This automobile is very rare. It appears there were only 1,034 total Spyders produced in the world, and only 368 1995 Spyder SLs produced.

History

I believe I am the fourth owner of the vehicle. A friend of our family purchased it. He was a collector of rare automobiles with about seven that he kept in a garage. He owned this one for several years and rarely drove it. He passed away and left it to my mom, who sold it to me. I am aware of one minor accident. While my mom owned it, she allowed a relative to drive it. The relative rear-ended another vehicle. Unfortunately, I do not have records of the repairs that were made, but I do know the radiator had to be replaced and part of the front had to be repainted. I love this car, but I have a young family and have figured out that it is not practical for me right now.

Maserati Levante crossover not Jeep based after all?

Thu, 20 Feb 2014

Maserati has been teasing its crossover project since 2011, which is when it first showed off the Kubang concept (pictured above). Still, the production version, rumored to be called the Levante, remains a complete mystery. The CUV was first rumored to borrow the platform from the Jeep Grand Cherokee, but new rumors indicate that the Italian, luxury crossover might actually take the underpinnings from the Quattroporte and Ghibli.
In a brief interview, Maserati CEO Harald Wester told CNN Money that the Levante wouldn't use Jeep's platform. Motor Trend spoke with an unnamed Maserati engineer who confirmed the rumor. Officially, the company says that no decision has been made.
We can add this to another long list of rumors about the Italian CUV. It was originally supposed to be built at Chrysler's Jefferson North assembly plant in Detroit. Then, plans were changed to build it in Italy.

Maserati planning second smaller SUV?

Sun, 16 Dec 2012

Maserati's product plans have taken a few wild turns, but as we get closer to production dates for the long-awaited offerings things are getting a wee bit clearer. The the sixth-generation Maserati Quattroporte is here, and a quick recap according to a report in Car and Driver has the smaller Ghibli sedan on Chrysler's LX/LY platform next, then the next-generation GranTurismo coupe and cabrio on a Maserati platform, then the Kubang SUV concept (pictured) that, for production, will become the larger Jeep-Cherokee-based Levante SUV.
All of which gets us to 2015. That same year, according to the report, the Levante will get a brother: a smaller SUV or crossover, perhaps sized like the Kubang concept, to challenge the Audi Q5 and the Porsche Macan. It is predicted to use the Compact US Wide platform, built for front-wheel and all-wheel-drive vehicles, that supports the Dodge Dart and 2014 Alfa Romeo Giulia. In addition to giving the premium brand a competitor in what is a very popular segment, a Maserati move slightly downmarket can help fill a gap while Fiat brass figures out what to do with Lancia.

Sergio rethinks FCA-GM merger idea, dismisses critics

Sat, Dec 5 2015

After many public overtures, Fiat Chrysler Automotive CEO Sergio Marchionne has claimed his company won't be making a hostile takeover bid for General Motors. This is despite widespread speculation that FCA's desire to merge was motivated by its allegedly dire situation. As one unnamed GM exec who spoke to Automotive News earlier this year put it, "Why should [GM] bail out FCA?" "We are not choking. We are in relatively decent shape," Marchionne told journalists attending an FCA shareholder meeting in Amsterdam, AN reports. "We have been publicly rebuffed, we have been rejected and you cannot force these things. I don't want to. At the moment, we have no intention to do anything hostile." Instead of focusing on merging with GM, or any other partners for that matter, FCA will refocus on implementing its ambitious five-year investment plan, which would see it dump $52 billion into its various brands, with a particular focus on Alfa Romeo, Maserati, and Jeep. So far the attempt has largely been unsuccessful, especially as it relates to the Italian brands. Earlier this week, additional reports emerged that claimed Alfa was pushing back the Giulia and an unnamed CUV while reassigning resources to updated versions of the Giulietta and MiTo hatchbacks. This is not the first time we've heard about trouble for the Giulia, of course. For Masearti, though, it was the first we'd heard of delays for Alfieri sports car, which allegedly won't appear in 2016, as promised. We can expect a proper breakdown of FCA's adjusted plans when Marchionne and Company reveal an updated product slate next month.
