Very Rare 1986 Maserati Quattroporte Iii Last Year Of This Exotic Vintage V8 on 2040-cars
|
Hello exotic car lovers. We are selling our beloved and VERY rare 1986 Quattroporte with 22,000 original miles. This is the last year of the QPIII and is one of the best cars they made. This car is silver over tan (pumpkin) leather interior and nice tinted windows. The interior is in excellent condition, no rips or tears in the leather. Some minor spotting in the carpeting. All electronics work including the AC, it works great. All windows & lights work as does the remote trunk button. We just did a lot of maintenance on the car including AC system recharge, new rear door handle, oil change, tune up and much more. The paint is in very good condition, has a few tiny spots in the paint clearcoat on the roof but otherwise looks good. The car also has a few small dings that we are going to try and have removed before you pick the car up. This car has a 4.9 liter 288hp V8 engine with a Chrysler Torqueflight automatic transmission. The car is the fastest and best running QPIII we have ever driven. You could drive this car around the planet if you had a road long enough. It will run all day long and not overheat, even after sitting in 2 hours worth of Atlanta traffic. The only problem we are aware of is the hood struts will not hold the hood up and the interior hood release lever needs to be held to open the hood, it will not release both hood locks if you just pop the lever once. This is our 5th Quattroporte and BY far the fastest. It does have a custom sport exhaust and is pretty loud but sounds absolutely glorious. Everything works as it should. Car gets a lot of attention and people just love it. Runs and drives perfectly and VERY smooth. Tires are in good shape. Car has never had any body work or accident damage. VERY VERY rare car, less than 100 of them were brought into the states in 1986. Cost $70k in 1986! Many QPIIIs appeared in lots of movies in the 80s and 90s. Its an amazing and fun car, folks love this car we get tons of thumbs up and smiles. We are Maserati Club Members and are multiple exotic car owners. The ONLY reason why we are selling it is because my elderly Dad cannot handle the car safely anymore. We have attended many car shows and Maserati and Ferrari Club events with it and its a hit everytime we show it! Its got a clear title and a crystal clear Carfax report. You are welcome to come see the car and drive it. If you need more pics, please let me know. Car comes with tool kit, spare wheel, service receipts and some owner's/workshop manuals. |

Maserati surprises Manhattan with Centennial edition GranTurismo
Thu, 17 Apr 2014The GranTurismo may be getting a little long in the proverbial tooth, but it hasn't quite been a century just yet. It has, however, been a hundred years since Maserati was originally founded, and to celebrate that milestone, the Modenese automaker has rolled in to the New York Auto Show this year with a pair of special editions. Available in either coupe or convertible form, the MC Centennial Editions arrived as a surprise just as the Alfieri concept was a month ago in Geneva, albeit somewhat less revolutionary.
The special editions are differentiated from any other by their paint scheme, special wheels, revamped interior and special badging throughout. Magma red and Inchiostro blue - the colors of the city of Bologna where the company was founded a century ago - are new to the Maserati catalog, and come with a choice of wheel options with special logos at the center. The interior color is specified to complement the exterior with red, white or blue trim and carbon-fiber accents.
Power comes from the same 4.7-liter V8 as the GranTurismo MC Stradale or GranCabrio Sport, driving 454 horsepower to the rear wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission. That's said to be enough to propel either coupe or convertible to a top speed of 185 miles per hour, and comes coupled with Brembo brakes and MC sport suspension. Deliveries commence in July, but you can scope it out here in the gallery of live images from the show floor above, the galleries of stock images below and the press release below that.
Maserati recalls 26k sedans for rear suspension failure
Thu, May 26 2016The Basics: Maserati is recalling all 26,464 examples of the 2014-16 Quattroporte and Ghibli sedans it manufactured between February 1, 2013, and September 18, 2015 and sold or leased to customers in the United States. The Problem: The bolt securing the tie-rod to the hub carrier assembly in the rear suspension may not have been properly tightened during manufacturing, which could cause the suspension to fail and the driver to lose control of the vehicle. Injuries/Deaths: The manufacturer reports that it is unaware of any accidents or injuries to have resulted from this issue. The investigation was prompted by reports of excessive noise. The fix: Dealers will check the bolts in question and replace the hub carrier assembly if necessary. If you own one: Look out for a letter from the manufacturer to arrange service at your local dealer.

SUMMARY: Maserati North America, Inc. (Maserati) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Quattroporte and Ghibli vehicles manufactured February 1, 2013, to September 18, 2015. During the assembly process, the rear tie-rod to hub assembly attaching bolt may not have been properly tightened. CONSEQUENCE: An improperly tightened rear tie-rod to hub carrier assembly attaching bolt may allow the tie-rod to separate from the hub carrier, resulting in a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: Maserati will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the left and right rear tie-rod to hub carrier assembly attaching bolts to verify that they are properly tightened, replacing the rear tie-rod to hub carrier assembly as necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on July 1, 2016. Owners may contact Maserati customer service at 1-201-510-2369. Maserati's number for this recall is 303. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Only best-performing US Fiat dealers to get Alfa Romeo franchises
Mon, Feb 24 2014Alfa Romeo has been rumored to return to the US market so many times for so many years, it's hard to keep count. This time, though, Fiat Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne promises that it's for real. Alfa is scheduled to reappear in the States this summer with its 4C sports coupe as its introductory model. However, buyers won't be able to pop into just any Fiat showroom and leave with a 4C – it's planning to only sell Alfas at its best-performing dealers, according to The Detroit News. In fact, the first 4Cs sold here won't be sold at Fiat dealers at all. Instead the first shipment of cars in June will go to Maserati dealers, not unlike the handful of Alfa 8C Competizione coupe and convertible models that trickled in starting in 2008. According to Fiat Chrysler spokesperson Rick Deneau, the company is still deciding which Fiat retailers will participate in Alfa's reentry. Many of Fiat's US dealers are apparently not happy with the meritocracy approach. They built Fiat showrooms partially on the promise that Alfa would enter the US market in 2012, then 2013, and now later this year. Even worse for them, the prospects for more mainstream Alfa Romeo models in the US are still questionable. This isn't the first time that we've heard that Fiat plans to keep Alfa Romeo exclusive in the US. Still, Fiat only plans to export about a 1,000 4C sports coupes a year here. If Alfa wants to be a legitimate player in America and be a money-making concern globally, it will need far more sales than that.
