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. |

Car designer Frank Stephenson wants to show you something ... smaller
Sat, Dec 17 2022Influential car designer Frank Stephenson has often thought small. Now he’s thinking smaller. Throughout the past three decades, he has shaped — literally — some of the most indelible designs in automotive history: the modern Mini, the Ferrari FXX track star, the Maserati Gran Sport, a range of stunning McLarens and down to the funky 21st-century version of the Fiat 500. Now heÂ’s turned his pen to fashioning watches. His Cosmos analog piece, made to mirror “a black hole in space” and detailed “with an orange pinstripe which simulates the supernova glow of a neutron star,” features a Japan-built quartz movement and was created in concert with the Time Concepts company. “ItÂ’s the age-old adage ‘car people are watch people,Â’ so it was a natural step for me to get creative with timepieces too,” Stephenson said in a statement. “The collection showcases the love I have for exceptional and emotionally charged design, just like what is required in designing world class cars.” While Stephenson, who is 64, may be best known publicly for his vision of “affordable style” with the Mini and the Fiat, his ethos also translated to the utilitarian. In the case of BMW in the mid-1990s, the company was hustling to market an SUV, and turned to him for inspiration. His team had six months to complete the project. The result was the high-end X5, which Stephenson sketched during a two-hour flight. In 2018, Stephenson established the independent design company, Frank Stephenson Design, based in London.

2014 Quattroporte kicks off 50th anniversary for Maserati with new V6, AWD
Tue, 15 Jan 2013It's not that often that we get to talk about a new Maserati model, but that's all about to change. The Italian automaker is using the 2014 Quattroporte to begin a lineup expansion that will soon grow to no fewer than five models. Entering its sixth generation, the Quattroporte has been completely redesigned, and is also adding a new V6 engine and all-wheel drive.
Pictures of the car were released last year and we've even had the chance to drive the car in France already, but we finally got to see both the 410-horsepower V6 and 530-hp V8 versions of the car at its debut at the Detroit Auto Show. The new Quattroporte is 100-percent Maserati with its svelte-ye-aggressive styling, but it adds more of a mainstream look to better compete with the growing number of high-end luxury sedans. Not all of the Autoblog staff consider it an improvement, but it doesn't stray too far from the Italian styling of the last model.
The interior has also been brought up to date with modern infotainment technology and improved luxury courtesy of a longer wheelbase bringing more space to rear-seat occupants. While the V8 we drove had a bench rear seat and oddly retro-modern wheels, the car on display had more conventional wheels and the two-passenger rear seat bucket seat layout.
