This is a 2000 Toyota MR2 Spyder in overall very good condition. It is in excellent condition mechanically. See the flaws listed in the Condition Description above.

The Good Stuff is it had an engine replacement about 13,000 miles ago (see invoice copy in pics. I will send a better copy to the winning bidder) (The mechanics felt the cause was negligence by the previous owners, but who knows). There are no fluid leaks, AC is great, glass defrosted rear window, power locks, windows and mirrors, CD player (single). It runs great, no clutch issues. I change the oil and other fluids myself. I really do like this car, but I have it and a 2001 Jeep Wrangler. I need to get a practical vehicle.

The MR2 has very limited storage space. If you aren't familiar with the vehicle, check out www.spyderchat.com to learn everything you want to know. I won't go into all the details about it's handling ability, fuel economy, etc. That info is readily available on the link I provided and a lot of other places on the net. It is a LOT of fun to drive! The wheels are after market, old and need refinishing. I bought them off Craigslist on the cheap just to have something because the ones that were there when I got the car just had to go. They are 17s with 205s on the front and 225s on the rear. The overall paint polishes up pretty well, but a 13 year old car has paint dings. Buy with confidence. I describe things accurately, and there are no surprises.

A $500.00 non-refundable deposit is due at the auction's end (within 48 hours). The remainder is to be paid by cash, certified check drawn on US bank or bank to bank wire transfer within 7 days of auction's end. I will release the clear title immediately for cash, or mail the title to you when the certified check clears or wire transfer has completed.

NOTE: The engine replacement invoice shows only the labor cost associated with the replacement ($1,430.33), as an aftermarket warranty company provided the motor (LKQ remanufactured...this was quite a battle between the garage and the warranty company since they wanted to just send a used replacement, and the garage fought for a remanufactured and won. Great garage! The list price of the engine on the warranty co.'s paperwork was just over $2,700.00, but they paid for that I'm happy to say.

Do NOT bid on this car if your funding has the potential to mysteriously disappear. If you don't intend to pay, keep your distance. Enough unpleasantness now. Check out the video:

Maserati confirms mystery concept, Zegna edition QP for Geneva

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

Debate ensued last week around the Autoblog offices when we first heard rumors that Maserati was bringing a new sports car concept to the Geneva Motor Show this year. Could there be any truth to the rumors? Did the timing make any sense? Does Maserati even need a two-door halo car to help it move examples of the new Ghibli, Quattroporte and upcoming Levante?
Well, we still don't have any official answer, but Maserati has indeed confirmed a new concept car to debut this week at the Swiss expo. The Modenese automaker hasn't indicated what form the concept will take, but assuming it's not doing another sedan or crossover, and unless it's planning a wagon concept like Touring's Bellagio Fastback or StudioTorino's Cinqueporte (both based on the previous Quattroporte), we feel it's more likely than not that we'll be looking at a two-door (be it a coupe, convertible or something in between).
Of course, we also don't know at this point just what size and segment Maserati is pursuing with this concept car (initial rumors had it going after the Jaguar F-Type) or for that matter whether it will presage a production version to follow or simply stand as a design study. But Maserati doesn't typically do many of the latter: the Kubang concepts of 2011 and 2003 previewed the Levante (albeit several years in advance), and the Birdcage was really more of a Pininfarina project, despite the Trident on the nose. With the exception of a couple production-based show cars (which themselves previewed production versions to follow), those are pretty much the only concepts Maserati has done in recent memory.

Marchionne threatens to move Alfa production out of Italy

Fri, 12 Jul 2013

Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne was unsurprisingly frank when asked by reporters about potential investments in Italian manufacturing for Alfa Romeo and Maserati, giving the Italian government the ultimatum, "Italy should decide if they want [Alfa Romeo's relaunch] to happen here or not as Fiat and Chrysler have several alternatives." Them's fightin' words.
Fiat's issue with the government stems directly from its courtroom clashes with the Fiom labor union. The two are currently embroiled in proceedings over longer shifts and shorter breaks, as Fiom has so far refused to sign a new contract citing revised labor laws that it says are anti-union.
According to Bloomberg, Fiat will be spending over $2.5 billion on development of eight new Alfas and six new Maseratis, in a bid to wrest some of the luxury pie away from BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi. But that's only going to happen if the government is willing to play ball and make life easier on Fiat.

2020 Maserati Ghibli getting a hybrid powertrain, start of brand revamp

Thu, Sep 26 2019

Maserati has officially announced its product plans for the next couple of years, and the company is beginning to embrace electrification. It all starts next year with the 2020 Maserati Ghibli, which will receive a hybrid powertrain. Maserati didn't specify whether it would be the only powertrain, but we would expect that it will still offer some fully gas-powered engines such as the 424-horsepower turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 in the current model. In the same year, we'll finally see Maserati's next sports car that the company has confirmed will have electric power. By all accounts, it should be the production version of the Alfieri concept that made its debut five years ago. Maserati also confirmed that the Alfieri will not replace the GranTurismo. Instead, the GranTurismo will be getting a new generation. Reports say the new GranTurismo will arrive in 2021. Maserati will also add another crossover to its lineup. Reports say it will be smaller than the Levante. We should see it sometime in 2020, since early production tests will wrap up late that year and in early 2021. Maserati didn't say specifically if there will be an electrified version, but past reports would suggest at least a hybrid will be available. Finally, Maserati mentioned that Quattroporte, Levante and Ghibli will all continue on with some updates. Expect mild facelifts and powertrain updates to them over the next couple of years, rather than a major redesign. Maserati will also be developing more advanced driver assist systems, including a system similar in scope to Cadillac Super Cruise that will allow hands-free highway driving and lane changes.
