Up for sale is my 1995 Mitsubishi Spyder VR4 with 56,500 miles. 

Vehicle History

I purchased vehicle 2 years ago and drove 2,300 miles on an awsome trip down I10 from Arizona to Florida.  The auto was owned by a gentleman in his 60's, and I am in my 50's.  It appears the vehicle has spent most of its life in the low humidity of Arizona.  Currently it is in a dehumidified garage in Florida.  Of the 56,500 miles, I have put on 14,000 in the last two years.  The car has no damage history. The unique aspect of this vehicle is it's low milage coupled with being a daily driver over the past two years. Recently I have found and purchased a 1997 VR4 with 28,500 miles locally.  Being the 1997 VR4 makes 3 3000gt's at the house, thought it might be a good idea to skinny down to two.    

Vehicle Condition

Exterior    The pictures taken we on 2/25/2013 and tell the story.  Most of the paint is original paint and although in near pristine condition, a close inspection will reveal scratches and some minor imperfections.  I had the trunk lid and convertible top repainted as the clear coat was showing its age.  The brand new paint and old look identical. 

Intererior    This is the origianl interior. The seats have some marks, as you can see in the picture, less than I would expect with a car of this age/miles.  Suprisingly the leading edge of the drivers seat (as you enter from the door) do not have the typical wear marks.

Mechanical     "Bone Stock" All maintenance is up to and ahead of date.  A full 60,000 mile maintenance is complete, including but not limited to timing belt, water pump, transmission inspection and flush, transfer case inspection, differential inspection.   New tires at 48,500 miles and the VR4 rims were cleaned and resealed so the tires will hold their air The tires appear to have 75% of its tread left.  Every button switch light system works on this car (well except one button)  The radio has two volume buttons one on the steering wheel and one  twist on/off button on the face of the radio.  The on off part works, but the twist part does change the volume, just never sure to what.  The steering wheel buttons work fine.  In 1995 and 1996 the radio has an AUX input which will accept Ipods/phone outputs.  Turbos sing like they should, and are original just like the rest of the car.  The trick to keeping your turbos happy and healthy is to allow the engine to cool (idle) before shut down.  The top works perfect.  Both hydrolic pumps which power the trunk and retractible hard top have had a complete flush and fresh hydrolic oil in July of 2012.  The only modification that has been done to this vehicle is the stock air cleaner has been replaced with a K&N air cleaner - Original air cleaner comes with car.

Pro's & Con's

Pro

The vehicle had an extremly limited production run in 1995/1996 consequntly few are available.  Take into account this vehicle is original with low miles makes it a collectors car.  The Spyders (turbos and NA too) have been showing some appreciation in value on the market over the past few years.

This car gets phographed every 2000 miles or so (that I am aware of).    This is the only 3000GT (of the 4 I have owned) which gets photographed. It is a conversation piece wherever you go. You will be asked questions about it! 

Currently in service as a daily driver, ready to go cross county

Low miles, Original, Mechanicaly up to date, No damage history, Never modded (except K&N air filter) - Original comes with the car for turning back to 100% stock.

Maserati calling in new Quattroporte for electrical issue

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

Exotic automobiles are just that: exotic. As in, rare. While Maserati is trying is darnedest to emerge from the fringes, its products are still less common than competitors from Germany, Japan or even the UK. Which is probably - more so than any superior quality or safety standards - why we rarely see the Trident marque's products the subject of a recall. Although it does happen upon occasion.
Back in the spring, Maserati had to call in over seven thousand examples of the Quattroporte, GranTurismo and Alfa 8C over rust issues. Now that the new Quattroporte is upon us, the Modenese automaker has apparently run into another small problem.
This time the issue revolves around the wiring harness for the alternator/starter motor, an improper crimp in which could cause the battery cable to short and start a fire. As a result, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is prompting 63 owners of the 2014 Quattroporte GTS V8 to bring their cars in to their local Maserati dealer to have the wiring harness replaced.

Leak confirms Maserati product plans, five new models

Fri, 28 Dec 2012

It isn't a secret that Maserati is planning a product expansion in an attempt sell 50,000 units annually by 2015, but the automaker hasn't officially announced just how it plans to do so. Yes, we've seen (and driven) the 2014 Quattroporte, checked out spy shots for the smaller Ghibli sedan and Maserati even confirmed the Levante name for its SUV, but a leaked document reported by CarScoop could shed some light on how the Italian automaker intends on carrying out its rapid growth.
According to the image, the new Ghibli and Levante models will considerably lower the entry price point for the Maserati brand with the sedan having a price range from around $72,000 up to just over the $100,000 mark, with the SUV starting at close to $80,000 and topping out at almost $200,000. It also looks like the GranTurismo and GranCabrio will be getting redesigned in the near future at which point the new Gran Sport model will be added to the mix - otherwise known as the which often-rumored sports car with which Maserati will do battle with the Porsche 911.

Bizarre Levante mule proves SUV will ride on Maserati platform

Wed, 27 Aug 2014

When Chrysler was developing the current Jeep Cherokee, matte black, lifted Alfa Romeo Giuliettas weren't an unusual site around the company's Auburn Hills, MI headquarters. That's because the Jeep rides on a modified version of the Alfa's platform.
Judging by these images, Maserati is following a similar path for the upcoming Levante. The presence of the modified and lifted Ghibli basically confirms that the company will look in-house for the new CUV's platform rather than outsource it to Jeep (otherwise, we'd be seeing modified Grand Cherokees running about).
The mule's Ghibli body has been fitted with a number of tweaks. Most notable are the higher roof and stretched wheel arches, which we're guessing are an attempt at increasing the sedan's center of gravity and width, respectively, in a bid to match the eventual production model.
