1995 Mitsubishi 3000gt Spyder Sl Convertible 2-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Decatur, Georgia, United States

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. Shipping and Payment Buyer responsible for pick-up or shipping.

2015 Maserati Ghibli gets the lightest of updates [w/video]
Wed, 19 Nov 2014Maserati continued its centennial celebration this week with a lightly updated version of the 2015 Ghibli at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
The sedan is enhanced with navigation and Bluetooth features, which are now standard. Reinforcing that this is a light refresh, Maserati gave the brake calipers a new finish, and contrasted stitching is also added on the Ghibli and Ghibli SQ4 models.
Maserati is also throwing in a free three-month "all-access" subscription to SiriusXM satellite radio for the Ghibli, Quattroporte and GranTurismo.
Maserati Levante crossover not Jeep based after all?
Thu, 20 Feb 2014Maserati 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.
Fiat Chrysler's Q3 profit boosted by strong North American earnings
Tue, Oct 24 2017MILAN, Italy — Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) reported a 17 percent jump in third-quarter adjusted operating profit on Tuesday, helped by a strong performance in its key North American market and improving operations in Europe and Latin America. The world's seventh-largest carmaker still makes the lion's share of its profits in North America, so improving, or at least maintaining, its margins there is a key focus. The carmaker reported an 8 percent adjusted operating profit margin in the region, up from 7.6 percent a year ago, despite a drop in sales and shipments. "FCA's profitability in North America remained strong in the quarter despite a weakening market there," a Milan-based analyst said. FCA's profitability compares with an 8.3 percent North America margin reached in the quarter by bigger U.S. rival GM , showing CEO Sergio Marchionne making progress towards his goal of closing the margin gap with GM and the company's other U.S. rival, Ford, by 2018. The company's confirmation of its full-year outlook also pushed shares higher, a trader added. The stock was up 2.8 percent by 1129 GMT, outperforming a 1 percent rise in the European auto index. FCA has been retooling some U.S. factories to boost output of sport-utility vehicles (SUVs) and trucks while ending production of some unprofitable sedans to strengthen profitability as the U.S. car market comes off its peak. The company said a drop in North America shipments due to lower fleet sales and discontinued models was partially offset by higher deliveries of Ram trucks and two models from the Alfa Romeo stable: the Stelvio sport utility vehicle and Giulia sedan. Profitability also improved in Europe, helped by sales of the Stelvio and the new Jeep Compass, and Latin America, while margins at Maserati remained strong at 13.8 percent due to strong demand for its first SUV, the Levante. In a later conference call, investors are looking for hints on the new strategy to 2022 which the company promised to unveil early next year. Chief Executive Sergio Marchionne said earlier this year that FCA would streamline its portfolio and that components businesses, including Magneti Marelli, would be separated from the group, possibly via a spin-off. While FCA confirmed its targets this year, doubts remain about its exposure to a weakening U.S. market, recall costs and potential fines over emissions after it was targeted by European and U.S.
