2006 Maserati GranSport LE We are pleased to present this absolutely gorgeous Maserati GranSport LE! If you're looking at this listing, you probably know all about these cars. They are perhaps the best value in modern exotic cars as you can get an Italian-built near-supercar with a full-blown Ferrari V8 under the hood and an F1 style transaxle at the rear of the car. This particular GranSport is extremely special, mainly because of the options that it has. This is an LE, which was a package only offered in 2006 which cosists of a full leather interior with leather headliner, the Auditorium 200 premium sound system, brake calipers in red, heated front seats with memory drivers seat, xenon headlamps with high-pressure headlamp wash system, and more! It is Rosso Mondiale in color with ball polished 19" BBS alloy wheels. The exterior is finished off with bold looking red brake calipers which are quite rare. The interior is finished in Nero leather with a silver leather and carbon steering wheel which matches the silver trim on the doors and rear passenger area. My favorite feature that this car has, is something very rare on these cars and was only offered on the very last 2006 GranSport models -- the fender emblems with the Maserati trident. This is only the second GranSport I have seen with these. They aren't just emblems stuck on the fenders. The fenders have recessed areas for them where they are bolted on. That means that the car has completely unique fenders for this option. The interior of this Maserati is in beautiful condition. It looks new. It smells new. It basically IS new. The carbon work on the center console and steering wheel is absolutely incredible. The car has the Auditorium 200 audio system which features several speakers. The front speakers have been upgraded, as has the headunit to a more modern system. We can install the factory system if the buyer would like. The previous owners of this car were definitely a non-smokers. This GranSport has dual front airbags, as well as front side airbags. The trunk is larger than you'd expect for a small exotic. Absolutely everything works and works properly. The gauges and warning lights all function and no warning lights are illuminated. This GS also has heated seats as part of the LE package as I mentioned before. The exterior of this Maserati is in stunning condition and only has a few minor flaws. Mainly, there is some very faint spider cracking on the paint on the front bumper. It's not visible unless you are looking for it up close. The car is Rosso Mondiale in color as I mentioned, which is absolutely stunning. The car has its original staggered 19 inch ball polished wheels which are in fantastic condition. They're a perfect fit for the car's appearance in my opinion. I opted for the ball polished wheels on my own Maserati because I love how they stand out. The headlights are crystal clear and don't have even a hint of yellowing. The red brake calipers behind the ball polished wheels are a perfect touch with the red exterior color of the car. The tires are matching Michelin Pilots in the proper sizes for the front and rear. These are simply the best high-performance street tires on the market, and are nearly new. 95% tread at least. The brakes are in good shape and the car stops as it should. The Ferrari V8 engine runs flawlessly and we completed the 10 year service. The F1 "CambioCorsa" transmission functions perfectly. The clutch was recently replaced and it shifts very quickly -- especially in Sport mode, the shifts are very quick (about 0.25 seconds). The transmission has four modes. Comfort, Power, Ice, and Automatic. They all have their own purpose and function well. The car has the MSP traction and stability control. Since this is a GranSport, it has Maserati's legendary "Skyhook" electronic suspension system which constantly monitors the car's position relative to the road and adjusts the suspension settings several times per second. This is a very reliable system. In summary, if you're looking for a Maserati GranSport, THIS IS THE ONE! There have been no more unique GranSport Maseratis on ebay in recent times. The condition is like-new, and the options set it apart from every other GS. Don't let this car slip away! Make an offer and you may own your dream car by tomorrow. We are negotiable on the price, and are very fair to deal with. We also welcome any pre-purchase inspections. Below, you will find nearly 70 photos of this spectacular car to help you get a feel for the car's exact condition. Please review them carefully. The car absolutely speaks for itself.

Since you're bidding, or making an offer, on a car which you may have not seen in person, it is important that a level of trust be established between you, our customer, and us, the dealership. This is why we post between 30 and 60 high-resolution images of every car we sell on ebay. We pride ourselves in having the most detailed, highest resolution images on ebay, and we use the finest photography equipment in order to catch even the smallest details of the cars that we sell. In addition, the description above provides a comprehensive walk-around of the car including the interior, exterior, and mechanical systems. We even will fill you in on any previous maintenance that we've performed. Regardless, all cars that we sell have been thoroughly checked for safety by our in-house master technician. In addition, we road-test every car we sell very extensively before offering it. If there are any issues with the car that are present, they will be mentioned in the auction. Because we road test the cars extensively, it is possible that the car may have more miles on it than when the auction was listed. We always encourage you to come check out the car in person before bidding or making an offer. If you are too far away to do this, there are several inspection services that can review the car, or we can take the car to a local garage of your choice for a pre-purchase inspection. Please note that a $500 deposit is due immediately upon purchase. This deposit can be made by contacting us directly and can be paid by credit or debit card over the phone. This allows us to speak with you person-to-person which allows us to fill you in on the process and fine details of the transaction, as well as lets you know that we are real people who are committed to making the process of purchasing your new car as easy and painless as possible. Buying a car should be fun and exciting, not a chore. The balance is due within 7 days via Certified Check, Money Order, or bank wire transfer. We can also accept credit cards and personal checks for full payment with prior authorization. Simply contact us before bidding or making your offer to let us know that you plan on paying with one of these methods so that we can let you know about additional terms that apply. Non-paying buyers will be reported to ebay. We charge a $255 dealer services fee for all transactions. This fee covers any additional paperwork service, overnighting of paperwork, and dealer prep. We can provide a temporary cardboard plate for out of state customers at no charge. Pennsylvania residents will need to pay sales tax between 6% and 7% depending upon your county of residence. There are also Pennsylvania fees for the registration, title, and license plate (unless you bring your own plate to transfer). Inexpensive used cars are not at all the same as a brand new car, or certified pre-owned vehicle. They are in no way flawless, or perfect. As noted above, we try our absolute best to disclose any issues which may be present on the car, however a car's condition is somewhat subjective and opinion based. Where door ding may be considered perfectly acceptable on a 10 year old car, it would never be acceptible on a car which is brand new. Also, on higher-mileage used cars, it is important to remember that virtually any mechanical or non-mechanical component can fail at any time. We cannot predict what components will fail in the future, or when they will fail. This is simply the nature of older higher mileage used vehicles. The best that we can do is assure that the car is operating properly at the time of purchase. This car is sold as-is, and we cannot be held responsible for any mechanical or non-mechanical failure. Additionally, because we do not know the inspection requirements of other states, we cannot guarantee that this vehicle will pass any out-of-state inspections.
