I have kept my Biturbo Spyder in a climate-controlled garage with temperature stabilization and air filtration (keep pollen out, etc.) . But that's not all. I have also taken exceptional good care of it. As a result, the car's overall condition is spectacularly good and not not just for its age.

This is a 1986 Biturbo Spyder with dual turbos. It has a 2.5 Liter V6 engine. Odometer reads 52,390.

It's easy to make sweeping statements about the car's condition - but as we all know - the devil is in the detail. I am willing to provide as much detail as possible, so here's a go at it.

The condition of the chassis is extraordinarily good. To begin with, the car is rust-free thanks to climate-controlled storage. It has made a world of difference. No body panel has rust or any corrosive damage. The car has been carefully examined. The car has never been in an accident. There is no frame damage or stress of any kind. It has not been stored in, or exposed to cold weather. The condition of the paint does reflect its age (as seen under ultraviolet light). However, the shine remains superb thanks to relying on Zymol "Ital" glaze with 47% Brazilian carnauba wax. One of my photos shows the 20 foot ceiling's reflection on the hood. This wax resists just about anything including sun damage. Inspection of rear view mirrors mounted on the doors shows excellent condition of the plastic, trim, and mirror. The plastic rear window is also clear and the stitching has no defect.

The interior of the car is also excellent. Take note of the condition of the instrument cowl, and the wood trim (crisp edges and no warping or fading). The convertible top fits nicely but is a bit tight-ftting at this time (needs use to loosen it up). The seats are in very good condition. Not just relative for their age, but very good - period. The plastic in the a/c vents and control buttons is sound but may be developing brittleness (they are coated with "conditioners" to keep them safe). The windshield glass is superb. Clean etched lines. Excellent visibility. No nicks or damage. The windows are in very good condition.

The wheels are in very good condition with minor signs of wear and tear. The tires are in good shape.

The electricals are in good condition thanks to climate-controlled storage. I include a photo of a circuit board to give you a detailed viewpoint.

The car has just had its oil sump cleaned out completely (it had no sludge). The oil filter is new. The air filter is new and I have another one.

Here's the bottom line: you can "save" money by buying a cheaper car only to spend more money returning it to good condition rather than buying this excellent car. Why waste time and money "restoring" to normal operation? Take this car to a higher level of performance instead.

I am putting together a detailed report with more photos so that I can email to interested bidders.

Nearly forgot to mention - brand new Sears DieHard Platinum battery $229.99 with 850 cold cranking amps & high performance features.

Maserati bringing a car that "opens up new frontiers" to Paris

Fri, 07 Sep 2012

We're not expecting to see a production version of the coming mid-engined Maserati coupe, expected to be named GranSport, for another few years; however, we might see it in concept form in just a few weeks at the Paris Motor Show. Australian site Car Advice got hold of an e-mail Maserati sent to friends of the Trident, and the first of the six cars mentioned is a "world premiere of a car that opens up new frontiers in terms of exclusiveness, performance and style."
Car Advice says it has been told that this will be a concept form of the GranSport, the GranTurismo replacement set to take on the Porsche 911 with ample use of carbon fiber and a 1,200-kilogram (2,600-pound) curb weight or thereabouts. The GranTurismo's 4.7-liter V8 hasn't been ruled out of the engine bay yet according to reports, but rumors persist that it will use the Ferrari-sourced twin-turbo V6 with 442 horsepower running power to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, and have a 0-60 time of something like four seconds.
We can't see the full content of the e-mail, but among the other five cars that have been announced for the stand are the GranTurismo Sport and GranTurismo MC Stradale. With the 2014 Quattroporte not appearing until the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, the Kubang concept said to be retired before the debut of the production version at the 2014 Detroit show and the Levante still just a wee mule, guesses for the three remaining three would be variations on current models. Not that there's anything wrong with that when it's Maserati we're talking about...

Maserati dubs new SUV Levante, new sedan to resurrect Ghibli moniker

Fri, 28 Sep 2012

Building on the introduction of the GranCabrio MC that debuted at the Paris Motor Show, Maserati is planning three new models over the next couple of year in an attempt to raise sales to 50,000 units annually by 2015. While we think that that is a pretty lofty goal for a boutique automaker, redesigning its flagship sedan and adding two all-new models in popular segments sounds like a great plan of attack
The first new car we'll see from the Italian automaker is the next generation of the Quattroporte which will be a fitting way to celebrate the car's golden anniversary. We've already seen spy pictures of the new Quattroporte testing as well as a series of patent drawings that reportedly show the car's basic lines. Expect the new Quattroporte out sometime next year with a possible launch at the Detroit Auto Show.
Following the new Quattroporte, we'll finally get to climb behind the wheel of a Maserati SUV... just not the Kubang. Maserati confirmed that its new utility vehicle, based on the Jeep Grand Cherokee, will in fact be named the Levante. We already knew that Maserati would definitely not be using the odd Kubang name after this year, but if the Levante name sounds familiar, it's because we previously reported that this name would be used on a sedan slotting in below the Quattroporte.

Maserati MC20 supercar will debut in May then hit the race track

Fri, Feb 21 2020

In the mid-2000s, Maserati was at the top of its game and at the top of performance car mountain with the Ferrari Enzo-based MC12. Today, Maserati isn't even in the foothills, let alone at the summit. The company is hoping to regain its credibility and status this year when it releases a new "super sports car" that we now know will be named MC20. We first caught a glimpse of the MC20, which is the spiritual successor to the MC12, in late 2019 via four murky photos of a camouflaged test mule. Judging by those photos, it seems the car will not look like any previous concept or model we've seen, which should help establish Maserati's insistence that 2020 marks the start of a new era for the company. However, test mules often have bodies and shapes that do not represent what the eventual production car will look like (the mid-engine Corvette started as this crazy Holden ute). Although it's alphanumeric, the name MC20 has some depth to it. MC stands for Maserati Corse, and 20 indicates the year 2020. But the MC12 wasn't released in 2012, so what's up? Maserati did this as a nod to its first race car, the Tipo 26, which was produced in 1926. Again, new era, back to its roots, etc. The MC20 will have an all-new powertrain that has been developed and built by and for Maserati. It is unclear what type of powertrain the vehicle will launch with, but Maserati has confirmed the car will eventually be available as an "electrified version," just like every other Trident from here on out. A Ghibli PHEV is expected to kick things off when it arrives this spring, and we've already heard the sound Maserati's electric vehicles will make. As the MC indicates, Maserati plans to return to racing with the MC20, just as it did with the MC12. Following development in the Innovation Lab we recently featured, the MC20 will be built at the Viale Ciro Menotti plant in Modena, Italy. The MC20 will debut at the end of May in Modena.
