This Porsche 550 Spyder replica is brand new with under 300 miles since finished last fall. This is a professionally built car that runs and drives flawlessly and needs absolutely nothing. It is a Vintage Spyders body and tube-frame chassis, which is by far the best available. The engine is a 2005cc CB Performance crate engine, making 145 horsepower, which is slightly more than the modified engine James Dean had built for his 550 Spyder. The car has adjustable-valving Bilstein coilovers in the rear and adjustable torsion bars in the front, so the car can quickly be set up for track days by a couple turns on the shocks, swapping the street wheels and tires for slicks, and bolting in the included SCCA- legal rollbar. It is currently set up for street driving. The stiff tube chassis, mid-engine design, 4 wheel disc brakes, and tight steering make the car an absolute dream to drive on the street. The suspension is soft enough to absorb most bumps and potholes around town, yet stiff enough to make you feel in control and predictable at speed. This car has under 300 miles on it with a professional mechanic behind the wheel. Rest assured this car is well-sorted and will be a great and reliable car for years to come. When you see this car up close in person, please take note of the incredible attention to detail, the perfect door gaps and fitment, the subtlety of the color and the quality of the paint work, and the world-class fit and finish throughout. This car was built without regard to budget using the best parts available by some of the most qualified experts in the country.

Heidi Klum and Maserati go Beyond the Swimsuit for Sports Illustrated
Sat, 22 Feb 2014When sports and cars come together, the world "super" often comes up - whether it's a high-performance super sports car, a racing series (like Japan's Super GT, Australia's V8 Supercars or Italy's Superstars series), the latest crop of Super Bowl ads from the world's automakers or a supermodel posing with a car in the pages of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue.
This year's edition already saw Lisalla Montenegro cozying up to the new Lexus RC F, but it's not the only pairing to be found between an import luxury performance machine and a swimsuit model. The new 50th anniversary edition of the popular bikini special features a seven-page pictorial titled "Beyond the Swimsuit" shot by Francesco Carrozzini.
The spread features the inimitable Heidi Klum posing beside and inside various Maserati models - including the new Ghibli S Q4, the GranTurismo MC Trofeo race car and the Quattroporte Ermenegildo Zegna concept. Of course it's not the first time we're seeing a leggy blonde stepping out of Modena's finest - a role often taken up by one Jodie Kidd, to say nothing of the rich and beautiful in exotic locales the world over - but it's a pairing of which we'll never grow tired.
Maserati's small two-seater could arrive by 2016
Mon, 13 May 2013As a following act to the redesigned Quattroporte and the recently unveiled 2014 Maserati Ghibli, Maserati will be releasing a slew of new products in the coming years, including the next-generation GranTurismo, the all-new Levante SUV and a new 911-fighting coupe - possibly called Gran Sport. While all of this information was detailed last year in a leaked product plan document, there were no dates associated with any of the new products. Auto Express is now reporting that the new GranTurismo will be out in 2015 and the new smaller coupe is expected out in 2016.
According to the report, the new coupe will be smaller and sportier than the GranTurismo, and it will feature a mid-engine layout with a platform that isn't shared with the Alfa Romeo 4C. This product onslaught is a part of Maserati's plan to increase sales to 50,000 units globally by 2015.
Maserati Levante will borrow Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid's PHEV powertrain
Wed, Mar 9 2016The plug-in hybrid tech from the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid minivan will move seriously upmarket into a future version of the Maserati Levante crossover. The PHEV model should arrive around early 2018 or possibly the end of 2017, division boss Harald Wester told Motor Trend. Wester was blunt about the reason for using the minivan's powertrain. "A standalone program would be suicidal so we have to look at FCA," he said to Motor Trend. However, he expects the PHEV to comprise a tiny portion of the luxury CUV's sales volume – possibly as low as six percent. The Pacifica Hybrid will be the first PHEV minivan in the US when it arrives in the second half of 2016. The powertrain combines a 3.6-liter V6 that runs on the more efficient Atkinson cycle, and two electric motors, which are in the gearbox. A 16-kWh lithium-ion battery under the floor stores the energy for the system. Chrysler estimates the setup can carry the minivan 30 miles purely on electric power and achieve 80 MPGe. The first examples of the Levante should arrive in the US in August, according to Motor Trend. Maserati plans initially to offer its luxury crossover here with two twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6s. Base models use a version with 350 horsepower and 368 pound-feet of torque. The S trim gets some extra grunt thanks to a tune that makes 430 hp and 427 lb-ft. Both models come with an eight-speed automatic transmission, all-wheel drive, and a limited-slip differential. The Maserati will have a fleet of posh, European crossovers to fight against, and the PHEV will possibly offer an edge to entice a few green-minded, wealthy customers. Related Video:
