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.

Stirling Moss-crashed 1956 Maserati 450S to be auctioned in Monaco
Sun, 06 Apr 2014RM Auctions has some very special and expensive Italian sportscars of the 50s and 60s consigned for its auction in Monaco on May 10, but the one that currently carries the highest estimated value at between 4 and 5.5 million euros ($5.5 - $7.5 million) is a 1956 Maserati 450S with some very interesting provenance.
The Maserati started its life as a six-cylinder 350S that Stirling Moss drove in the 1956 Mille Miglia race. Unfortunately, the brakes failed, and it crashed into a tree and nearly into a ravine. Moss and his co-driver weren't injured, but the car was kaputt.
Maserati repaired it and used the chassis as a test mule for its new 5.7-liter V8 racecar called the 450S. It featured an extended wheelbase to fit the larger engine and a new body with a single seat. The racer hit the track again at the hands of Moss and Juan Manuel Fangio in the 1957 Buenos Aires 1000 KM but retired with transmission issues. Later that season, it crashed again at the 1957 Mille Miglia at the hands of driver Jean Behra. After that, the car sat around the workshop until it was sold without an engine in 1965.
2014 Maserati Ghibli
Wed, 26 Jun 2013Italy Passionately Returns To The Sport Sedan Game
In its 99-year history, Maserati has arguably never made a vehicle as important as this all-new Ghibli.
Of course, there have been countless styling breakthroughs, mechanical advances and technical innovations, but no single passenger car has been required to bear the weight of the Italian company like its brand-new sport sedan. If the Ghibli succeeds, Maserati will welcome tens of thousands of new customers and, most importantly, celebrate a rekindled relationship with demanding North American buyers. If the Ghibli fails - well, the truth is, nobody has written an option for failure.
Maserati to cap output at 75,000 cars
Fri, 18 Jul 2014Maserati appears set to take a page out of corporate sibling Ferrari's playbook with the possibility that it may cap global annual output in the coming years. Ferrari announced in 2013 that it would limit itself to 7,000 vehicles a year to maintain exclusivity, and so far, it has stuck to the plan.
According to an unnamed Maserati executive speaking to Reuters, the Italian luxury car maker wants to cap its sales to 75,000 vehicles a year. However, it's hardly there yet. The company doesn't forecast reaching that production benchmark until 2018.
Dave Sullivan, an auto industry analyst for AutoPacific, thinks that limiting sales could be a smart move for Maserati. "If it is profitable at 75,000 and doesn't require a significant investment in capacity to get there, this appears to be sound," he said to Autoblog via email. "Alfa Romeo is intended to be the volume brand and by capping Maserati, it means that even if you opted to buy the 'entry level' Ghibli, you still have a level of exclusivity."
