This is has been my baby and my daily driver for the last year and she's been awesome, but it's time to let her to go someone who will appreciate her more.  I'm 42, I travel for a living, and so I don't really use the full potential of this car, and want someone to have it who will really enjoy it!  I'm the 3rd owner, it originally was sold on the West Coast, moved up to Washington State for almost a decade, then came down to Nashville.  It's NEVER been in the snowbelt, no rust issues.  


Only 457 of these were made, less are around now, very rare!

You will NOT find another one like this out there.  How do I know?  Because Mitsubishi did not offer the VR4 Spyder in Black on black colors, and I have recently completely replaced all the cream interior that goes bad so quickly with all NEW black leather seats and new carpets, it looks brand new!  All power functions work perfectly, including the top which has been recently calibrated by a Spyder technician, power steering, cruise control, windows, everything works!  This is a no-excuses car, fly in and drive her home today!

Over the last year she's been completely refurbished, and I have receipts for all of this work, including but not limited to:

New transmission rebuild - over $2,000, performed 2 years ago in Washington State
New Air Conditioning Compressor, Condensor, Dryer, and system flushed and filled - $1,000 last summer, blows super cold and auto climate control works perfectly!
New Driver's Side power window motor - $250 last summer
New Radiator and thermostat - $400 last summer
New FULL PAINT JOB - professionally stripped down to primer and re-painted black with clear coat, looks AWESOME - $2,200 - 6 months ago
Headlights sanded down and refinished - $150 - 6 months ago, but could stand being polished again
New Black carpet - $400 3 months ago
New black leather interior - $1,000 3 months ago
New shift boot - 3 months ago
New antenna - this month
New windshield washer pump and nozzles - this month

Tires have good tread left, the chrome rims shine up VERY nicely but have normal road wear on them.  The car had the 60k done many years ago according to the previous owner but has not had the 120k service done, but it still drives perfectly, every day.  I even took it back and forth 4 hours each way from Nashville to Atlanta next month, drove perfectly, no issues.

So, in the last two years, it's had over $7,000 of work done!  Where else are you going to find a Spyder with this awesome of maintenance history, WITH RECEIPTS TO PROVE IT??!!  

These are super rare, and getting more rare every year as people wreck them or part them out.  Get a car that turns heads, no one knows what it is, looks AWESOME SEXY, and makes people stop and admiringly ask you what kind of car you're driving!

$500 deposit required via Paypal within 24 hours of auction end.
Balance due within 3 business days via cash or Bank Check.  Bank check must clear before you can drive the car home.
This car has a CLEAN TITLE IN HAND.  There was a minor dent in a fender YEARS ago, since fixed and you can't tell at all (it'll show up on your Carfax).  NO SALVAGE CRAP HERE!
I can meet you at the Nashville airport if you choose to fly in and drive it home rather than have it delivered.
More pictures or video of running car available upon request, even a Facetime video if you want to watch the top in action!  
I encourage you to come test drive this BEFORE you bid.
PLEASE ask all questions BEFORE bidding.  You're bidding to own this car, not bidding on a chance to come look at it.  All bids are final, car is sold as-is where-is with no warranties express or implied.

Thanks for bidding, and good luck!

Electric Maserati GranTurismo Folgore will have over 1,200 horsepower

Thu, Mar 17 2022

Maserati is in the midst of a renaissance. It released the MC20 in 2020, it's preparing to unveil the Grecale, and it confirmed that its first electric model will be an evolution of the next-generation GranTurismo with over 1,200 horsepower from three individual motors. Speaking during a press conference, company boss Davide Grosso shared official details about the second-generation coupe due out in 2023. The electric model called Folgore in Maserati-speak will offer "way over 1,200 horsepower" from three electric motors linked to what the carmaker calls a "bone" battery pack. We're guessing that means the unit will feature internal structure similar to bone, or be centrally mounted along the transmission tunnel, and not that it will be made with actual bones. Regardless, an 800-volt charging system and Formula E-sourced technology will be on board as well. Maserati also published additional images of the second-generation GranTurismo. It's still covered in camouflage, but we can tell that the front end borrows a handful of styling cues from the MC20 while the overall proportions haven't significantly changed. It's still a big coupe with sporty lines characterized by a long hood and a short decklid. The GranCabrio convertible is scheduled to make a comeback as well. The electric Folgore model will be positioned at the top of the line-up, but it won't be the only version available at launch. Maserati revealed that at least one V6-powered variant will be offered as well, a comment which hints (but doesn't confirm) that there will be no V8. "The market for a gasoline-powered version is still there. It's absolutely still there. What we want to do with Folgore is to give customers a choice: V6, or electric? In five or 10 years we likely wouldn't have developed it, but customers still enjoy these cars today," said Francesco Tonon, the firm's global head of product planning, during a conference call. He stopped short of providing details about the V6, though it's not terribly far-fetched to assume that it will be at least related to the excellent twin-turbocharged Nettuno unit that powers the MC20. Numerous other electric cars will join the Maserati line-up in the coming years, and the firm's full range will run on batteries by 2030. EV variants of the Grecale and the next-generation GranCabrio are scheduled to make their debut in 2023, and they'll be joined by an electric version of the MC20 in 2025.

Maserati orders explode, 22,500 through September

Wed, 16 Oct 2013

Last year when Maserati revealed a plan to sell 50,000 units globally by 2015, it seemed like a pretty steep goal for an automaker that had sold just 6,300 units for the entire year. It turns out that goal may be a little on the conservative side. Through September, Automotive News Europe says the Italian automaker has already racked up 22,500 orders mainly on the backs of the redesigned Quattroporte and the all-new Ghibli, and there are still more new products in the pipeline.
Back in August, we heard that demand in China was playing a strong role in Maserati's big numbers in 2013, and this doesn't even include the upcoming Levante SUV, which Maserati CEO Harald Wester expects to add as many as 25,000 units to the mix when it goes on sale in 2015. According to the ANE report, the Quattroporte is still the most popular model with almost 10,000 orders so far this year, while the smaller and more affordable Ghibli is performing quite well with almost 8,000 orders; the aging, but soon-to-be-replaced, GranTurismo models have about 5,000 orders.

Autocar compares new Maserati Quattroporte to Jaguar XJ

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Autocar's Steve Sutcliffe took the 2014 Maserati Quattroporte on a spin along snowy mountain roads to test it for a specific brief: as a limousine for the chauffeured class. It's sporting credentials are impressive: Twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V8, 532 horsepower, 475 pound-feet of torque in casual circumstances that rises to 532 lb-ft in overboost, a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour sprint of 4.7 seconds and a top speed of 191 mph.
However, citing Maserati's desire to not just increase its sales to 50,000-per-annum by 2015, but to sell many more of its cars in China, Sutcliffe wanted to find out if the livery side of the Quattroporte could match its sport sedan side. So after taking the pilot's seat and trying out the sport settings, Sutcliffe hops in back to test out the CEO's seat.
Then he compares the Quattroporte against the long-wheelbase Jaguar XJ with its supercharged V8, a sedan that's 15,000 pounds less expensive than the Maserati. It doesn't take long for him to find that one of them is a clear winner when it comes to transporting VIPs. To find out which one, enjoy the video below.
