Up for sale is my wife's beloved Spyder. This is her third such car since 2004. She has owned it as her daily driver since 2008. We purchased it used from a dealer with 59K miles on it, so I do not know anything about it prior to that time. We had very few mechanical issues over our ownership, but she drives approximately 40 miles each way to work and has put some miles on it. She has purchased another Spyder (now her fourth) with lower miles, so this is the only cause for our selling this car at this time.

The title is clean with a clear CARFAX report. The car was in a minor traffic accident years ago while we owned it. A woman bumped us in stop and go city traffic and her front license plate frame punctured the rear bumper cover but did not compress any underlying structures. The only damage was cosmetic: we had the rear bumper cover replaced. Total cost to fix was under $700. Repaired by insurance company supervised shop. The original transmission failed last year, so the current transmission has only approximately 80K miles on it. It was dealer installed as a used unit in 2013.

All options, accessories, and components work as designed on the vehicle at this time, though the car will be sold as is and no warranty is expressed or implied by the information here. In short, if it has a button, it operates, including: Power Windows/Locks, Door/Alarm Remotes, Power Top, Factory CD, Interior and Exterior Lighting, Power Outlets, and all Controls. Rear defroster is the lone exception here. No check engine lights or other sensor issues are known. The top does not leak, save for in high pressure car washes as is typical of Eclipse Spyders of all model years.

Very clean daily driver with the following minor cosmetic issues:

Paint: No delamination or oxidation.Small section of hood and fenders have small areas of Duplicolor paint to hide deeper road rash, but no rust or bubbling present. Several sanding marks in preparation for repaint due to normal road wear. Wife bought new car in stead, so I will sell this car rather than continue to restore it. Needs only clear coat respray to remove sanding marks. Most marks disappear with good hand waxing. Chose to disclose marks rather than mask them with wax in the name of full disclosure. All paint issues can be resolved with TLC without the need to spray whole body, but if we kept it, we planned on doing so anyway, thus the present condition. Minor door dings along passenger side, all but one are smaller than a dime. The one larger is about three inches long. All will pop out without the need for paint using a service like Pop-A-Dent. One chip (half inch) under driver door from rock needs filling.

Interior: Factory leather from another car of same vintage. This car came with a cloth interior from the factory. Missing Driver Seat Lumbar Lever. Thus car has never been smoked in, however, since the seats came form another vehicle, there is a solitary cigarette (?) mark in the back, driver-side seat cushion. Had the seats three days before I noticed it. Very small and in inconspicuous location. Passenger side door vinyl has a small tear which can be colored to camouflage or repaired using vinyl kit. Both are smaller than a pencil in diameter. The rear interior panels especially have scuffs from kids getting in and out over the years, but none are cracked or punctured. Both door thresholds are scuffed and should be replaced, but are serviceable left as are.

Wheels: Several scratches in factory alloy wheels.

Single known unresolved mechanical issue: Rear window defroster does not heat.

New parts (Replaced this summer): AC Compressor and Drier, AC Control Panel, Blower Motor Resistor, Upper and Lower Radiator Hoses, Drive Belts, Idler Pulley, Front Sway Bar Links, Air Filter, Wiper Blades, Headlamps.

Newer parts (Replaced last summer): Timing belt and Tensioner, Water Pump, Spark Plugs/Wires, Tires, Brakes (Calipers, Pads, Shoes), Interior Carpet/Padding, Oxygen Sensor, Battery.

Please feel free to ask any questions needed to help you bid with confidence. Remember, this was my wife's car which we counted on to get her over 80 miles a day round trip and never lost sleep worrying about it leaving her stuck. Very sound throughout. This is not an auction car, or one someone is selling to make a profit with. We believe this car has many more reliable miles left in her. If you want a fun, head-turning car to drive on a daily basis, this is your best bet! I have set a very low reserve for this auction given the overall clean condition of the vehicle. I expect to sell this car during this listing, so I respectfully reserve the right to end the listing early if I sell it locally.

2014 Maserati Ghibli S Q4 [w/video]

Wed, 12 Mar 2014

For one reason or another, this is a car people stare at. They might be drawn to its curvaceous shape riding on immense wheels. They could be intrigued by its gaping, blacked-out grille which houses an equally outsized trident logo, or doing quick calculations about the last time they saw a car wearing the name Maserati. It may be its sports-car-like proportions mixed with achingly long, four-door bodywork that draws their eye.
Or, and I urge you to consider this theory carefully, the people taking notice of this Maserati Ghibli S Q4 might simply be newly alert after hearing the sound of its exhaust ricocheting off any solid thing nearby as I drive past grinning like a certified asshat. Did you hear an Italianate engine song careening through your Ann Arbor, MI neighborhood, in the black of the early morning, just a few weeks previous? Sorry, guy, that was probably me.
I spent a week hammering this all-wheel-drive Ghibli as hard as I dared in the last truly miserable stretch of the God Awful Winter of 2014. I can honestly say that I enjoyed myself, shocked at both the frank way this new challenger luxury car went down the road as well as the attention it garnered in the process.

Alfieri headed for production based on strong Maserati sales

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

Maserati has been on a heck of a product surge recently. After years of subsiding on versions of the previous Quattroporte and the aging GranTurismo, the Modense automaker rolled out the new Quattroporte the year before last, the Ghibli last year, it will introduce the Levante crossover next year and - according to the latest intel - will begin production of the Alfieri sports car the year after that.
The Alfieri concept debuted just last month at the Geneva Motor Show, taking the form of a two-door sports car foreshadowing the brand's new design language. Reception was positive, but it appears that sales of Maserati's existing models is what's giving the Alfieri the green light.
According to Automotive News, citing an interview given by Maserati chief Harald Wester on Bloomberg Television, the brand has been getting 3,500 orders per month, putting it on track to sell 42,000 units this year - nearly three times as much as the 15,400 it sold in 2013. The profits generated off those orders could be enough by themselves to offset the losses which Fiat is expected to record this year based on flagging sales for the Fiat, Alfa Romeo and Jeep brands in Europe.

Fiat set to invest $12B on new models, stop Euro losses in 3 years

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

Naturally, you'd expect a massive automaker like Fiat to have an in-depth plan to exit the current European-market doldrums, and you'd expect that plan to include plenty of new vehicles to attract those precious buyers that still remain despite the financial downturn. And you'd be right, though Fiat does seem to have a few unexpected twists up its corporate sleeve.
Perhaps the biggest shocker is a report that Fiat will completely drop the Punto, a car with mass-market appeal aimed at small-car buyers cross-shopping the popular Volkswagen Polo. Its replacement will be a five-door Fiat 500 aimed at upmarket buyers (sounds awfully similar to the 500L) that will be built in Poland. Lower-end customers will reportedly be served by variants of the Fiat Panda.
Borrowing a page from the BMW, Daimler and Volkswagen playbook, reports Automotive News, Fiat is said to have plans to reignite production at its Italian factories by retooling them to build high-end vehicles from Maserati and Alfa Romeo. These will be marketed as premium products, built by skilled Italian workers (who are paid wages that are 75-percent higher than those building Fiats in Poland), and will be sold around the world.
