2005 Anniversary Edition Maserati Spyder The most Highly optioned of this rare special edition. Thanks for looking at
my rare Maserati Anniversary Edition Spyder. As far as I know, this is the most
highly optioned of all the rare Anniversary Special Edition Spyders. This is an exceptional car in excellent condition with only 10,8XX miles. It is number 21 of only 90 produced, finished in stunning Anniversary Blu over blue leather interior, having the original window sticker and factory books. Powered by the Ferrari 4.2L V8 producing 390 HP. I have included a picture of the window sticker- in addition to the long list of standard features of this special edition car, here is a quick list of the extra options equipped from the factory: CD Changer $695 Handy Fire Extinguisher $485 (I still get a kick out of
this) Heat and memory driver seats $720 5 Piece fitted Luggage set $2390 (still in their protective
bags) Radio, Navigation, GPS, and GSM Phone $3985 Park Distance Control $610 Skyhook Suspension $2390 Xenon Headlights $1205 There is also a dealer installed Clear Bra on the nose and exterior mirrors of the car (see pictures) saving the paint from typical stone chips. I am the second owner, we bought this car in March of 2008 with 8,200 miles. It has been great to own, there have not been any repairs necessary, just a battery replacement- I installed a high-end Optima Red Top battery. The engine and clutch have always been flawless, running very smooth and strong. The car has had oil changes with synthetic oil every year. The interior and exterior of the car are great, and all the equipment works well including the power top. Note that other than the new battery, the car is completely stock including the small factory mounted antenna on the trunk. The AC is cold, the Spyder has never been smoked in and never been on a race track. Living in Wisconsin, the car is garage kept in a climate controlled garage, I have only driven in the summer, the car has never seen rain. Clean Carfax. Included in the sale are all books and manuals, 2 keys, original window sticker and radio code cards. The exterior paint is great. No door dings, a few minor stone marks, most in the clear bra material, hard to tell if they actually even penetrated to the underlying paint. The rims are good with no curb rash. The interior is great, the leather is soft and supple. The car has never been in an accident. The car has always run and handled well, and always passed the WI emissions. Info about me: I have been a “car guy” since my teenage years, and have owned many high-end and exotic cars including many Ferrari’s, Porches, Lotus, etc. I think most people would assume that an owner must be wealthy to own such cars, but for me it has been a very low cost hobby. I have always acquired rare, second hand low mileage cars. I have never purchased new. In doing so, I have enjoyed the cars for years, and been able to sell them for very close to the price that I have paid. It has been such a low cost hobby that my wife enjoys it with me! This car will provide the same benefits to the new owner- the value should remain stable or increase. The reason for the sale: I had owned the car a bit less than a year when we found my wife of 25 years was expecting our first child. Upon my daughters arrival, the 3 of us needed a back seat. Now that she is almost 5, I want her to enjoy the hobby we have loved for more than 30 years. Of all the cars I have owned, this has been my favorite and it is being replaced with a newer Maserati Spyder (standard with a back seat!). A word about buying vehicles on EBay: 95% of the cars available on eBay are listed by dealerships. Although dealership listings look good, you do not know the cars history. The dealer has acquired the car in one of two ways- by trade or at auction. Buying directly from an owner provides the best link to accurate information. Note that I have sold several cars on EBay and have over 600 transactions that are 100% positive. I am currently marketing the car locally, and reserve the right to cancel the auction prior to the auction end if it sells. All serious bidders are welcome to view and drive the car prior to the end of the auction, with the understanding that if the car is how I have described it here, I will expect you to bid on the car prior to the auction end. In other words, I do not want to show the car if the current bid price is out of your budget, or if you are just looking. I am happy to answer any questions you may have. My cell is 414-750-5007. A $2,000 deposit by PayPal is due within 24 hours of auction
end, and balance by wire or cashiers check within 7 days of auction end. Please
do not bid if you do not intend or cannot pay for the car. If you have feedback
of less than 3, or negative feedback for non-payment, you must contact me prior
to bidding, or your bid will be automatically canceled. Transportation,
delivery and any fees or costs of licensing the car in your state are the
responsibility of the winner. The car will be released as soon as funds have
cleared. The car is lien free with title in hand. Thanks for looking, and good
luck bidding on this great exotic! |

2018 Maserati GranTurismo First Drive | Better with age?
Tue, Aug 1 2017There are not many rational reasons for owning a Maserati GranTurismo (or GranCabrio convertible, for that matter). Even Maserati admits this. The short list occupies a single paragraph. Firstly, the GranTurismo is not German. Don't laugh. For some people, that's enough. Secondly, it has rear-seat space and comfort that remains the class benchmark. Thirdly, its cabin is the place where art and craftsmanship meet. There are far more rational reasons to not buy one. Let's tick them off, since we're in the mood. Firstly, it's already had its tenth birthday. It's not jeepers-fast by today's standards and neither is it remotely frugal. It drives the back wheels through a six-speed transmission, so it has 50 percent fewer gear ratios than AMG. Also, the only thing light about it is the weight of its driver-assistance systems. The 4.7-liter GranTurismo and its roofless GranCabrio sibling prospered in the plus-minus ledgers early in their careers, but they now operate outside them, in the sketchbooks of translated emotion. The Pininfarina-designed body is still stunning, a decade on, from any angle. It's had some tickles on the front and rear bumpers to make the grille more like the one on the Alfieri concept car, there are new headlights in the same space and the aerodynamics have been cleaned up so it can streak beyond 186 mph. When we say "streak" we really mean "creep" because it tops out at 187 mph. It has air vents behind the front wheels now, but they're not functional, and neither are the three signature vents high up on the front fenders. Maserati's aero guys tested German cars with working air vents and found their aero contributions were minimal. The air inlet on the MC's is, though, and so are the twin hot-air outlets that give the carbon-fiber hood its exaggerated contours. The big news from the Powertrain Department is that it's been busy eliminating stuff, rather than doing new things. It simplified its life by killing off the entry-level 4.2-liter V8, so the only engine in the entire range now is the Ferrari-built 4.7-liter, 90-degree V8. Don't think of bolting in the torque-rich twin-turbo V6 motor from the Ghibli, Quattroporte or Levante – or the twin-turbo V8, either – since neither are available. The V8 also comes in just the 453 horsepower version, regardless of whether you like the standard GranTurismo Sport or shell out another $17,745 for the $150,570 GranTurismo MC.
Lazareth LM847 packs a Maserati V8 into a leaning quad frame
Tue, Mar 1 2016You want to know what insanity looks like? This is it. It's called the Lazareth LM847, and to boil it down to its essence, it's basically a sport bike built around a Maserati V8. Now this isn't the first motorcycle we've seen packing a giant car engine. There've been more custom jobs than we could list here, and of course there's the Boss Hoss – an American cruiser with a 5.7-liter Chevy V8 at its heart. And we'd be loathe to leave out the V10-powered Tomahawk concept from this discussion. But this is another matter entirely. The LM847 is made by a French outfit called Lazareth. It's the same company responsible for the Wazuma quad bike, the Wazuma GT roadster, and that bonkers Renault Twingo with the Range Rover V8 in the back. In other words, Lazareth knows crazy, and hasn't skimped on it this time. For its latest project, Lazareth started with a 4.7-liter V8 – the kind you used to find the Quattroporte or Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione before Maserati started downsizing and bolting on turbos. It produces 470 horsepower and 457 pound-feet of torque, channeled through a single-speed hydraulic coupling in place of a multi-gear transmission. Strictly speaking, it's not a motorcycle, but a quad – owing to the tandem wheels at each end. But it has a saddle and handlebars, and looks like it would lean in a fair bit in the turns. We're not about to find out though, because we don't have a death wish. Related Video:
Maserati Ghibli gets blacked-out Nerissimo special edition
Wed, Apr 12 2017Following in the footsteps of the Nissan Midnight package and the Chevrolet Midnight Edition trucks, Maserati is jumping on the bandwagon, and its smallest sedan, the Ghibli, is now available with a limited-edition black trim package called "Nerissimo." In English, that translates simply to "extremely black." The package is available on the base Ghibli, Ghibli S, and Ghibli S Q4 models, and only 450 cars will come equipped with it. On the outside, it adds the following black-painted items: 20-inch wheels, door handles, window trim, and grille. Inside, the car gets black leather with red stitching, and a badge indicating that the Ghibli is one of 450. A few other features sweeten the deal beyond appearances. All Nerissimo models include blind spot monitoring, rear parking sensors, and remote start. The S and S Q4 models also get a Harmon Kardon sound system. The powertrain remains the same 404-horsepower twin-turbo V6 and eight-speed automatic found in the normal Ghibli. With that in mind, you pay quite a bit for what boils down to an appearance package. Turning a standard Ghibli into a Nerissimo model will add $5,650 to the $72,850 base price. Doing the same for a Ghibli S or S Q4 will add $6,800. So you had better really like the look and the exclusivity to spring for a Nerissimo. Others should probably spec out a more common version. Related Video:
