This ultra low mile, rust free example is not a restoration. It is a pristine example wrestled away from its owner following months of negotiation. Only minor cosmetic and mechanical refreshening was necessary to bring this collector quality example to its current state. This is an incredible--near original survivor. Don't miss your last chance to buy this sweetheart at a reduced price before it is tucked away for the winter... Please note that the color combination is extremely rare for a spider, and uniquely Italian. Pictures simply do not adequately reflect the beauty and splendor of this stunning car. The exterior paint was superb on arrival with no rust or significant imperfections. We were able to save much of the original paint, and professionally retouched the troubled areas. The interior is completely untouched from its original state. Only light cleaning was necessary to produce the beautiful result shown in the photographs. With all costmetic and mechanical concerns lovingly addressed, the end result is nothing short of one of the most beautiful cars we have ever completed. Please visit www.roadstersalon.com to learn more about our passionate endeavors restoring these Italian works of art. Once again, we must stress that this Spider is near original, and was not in need of anything other than mild attention. Cosmetic Impressions Close inspection shows this car is nearly flawless. The interior is particularly impressive. How a vehicle that is nearly 30 years old could maintain such purity and originality is a tribute to the former owners care. All key cosmetic items appear as new. One of the most breath taking cars we have ever encountered. Mechanical Impressions Car is a joy to drive, although test runs have been kept to a minimum due to the extremely low original mileage on the car. It can easily be shown and transported from event to event---or actually driven daily. Original, vintage feel has been retained. This is one of the most outstanding combination of miles and condition you are likely to ever find. All key aspects of the car perform as intended. All mechanical concerns have been addressed prior to delivery. A+ Market Analysis We have been selling these cars for over ten years, and are well aware of there value. Let's face it--there are many of these around for cheap dollars in need of care. This is a show quality example that is certain to appreaciate dramatically in the coming years. A terrific value. Own a true piece of automotive history by the same designer as Ferrari for the cost of a Toyota. Please note that the 1982 Spider with 39K miles we offered last week sold in less than 24 hours for $15,500. In our opinion, this car is very comparable in overall condition, and arguably has a more desirable color combination with lower miles.

Our buyers have decades of experience, and take pride in each vehicle they hand select. All of our vehicles must pass inspection and most carry balance of factory warranty. Please contact us with any questions. We stand behind every vehicle we sell, and look forward to new buyers!Luxury CarsWholesaleyour direct source for fine automobilesInternet remarketing solutionsA New Way to Buy Pre-Owned Luxury CarsBuying a car at a dealership can be daunting. High pressure salespeople.Limited selection.Adversarial negotiations. Not much fun. But buying a car on the internet has its own unique challenges. The most obvious concern is an online shopper's inability to test drive and evaluate the car in person. While internet pricing can be attractive, some feel that the unknowns outweigh the benefits. Horror stories about flawed vehicle histories, incomplete documentation, misrepresentations, selective disclosure, and title problems make many potential buyers cringe. The LCW staff is your eyes and ears. We are marketing company representing the finest Luxury Car dealers in Chicago. We maintain our impartiality by independently evaluating each automobile submitted to us, and determining whether it meets our rigid standards. We then act as a liaison between customer and dealer to facilitate the fairest possible transaction to all parties concerned. Our commitment to complete customer satisfaction is unwavering.Internet Marketing PhilosophyIn our changing marketplace, internet sales have become a vital component to every dealer's sales profile. The internet provides us with a low cost venue to sell select inventory at near wholesale prices without compromising the resources of a dealer's retail sales operation. Internet car sales can take several forms, such as online classifieds and auctions. The most popular, and arguably the most challenging, is Internet sales. Our listings are generally offered on-line between five and ten day time frames. We design marketing solutions for dealers who need to move vehicles quickly off of their lots. Ultimately, the dealer has the final word on pricing, and which internet venue best suits their needs.LCW and our affiliates have represented over 1000 fine automobiles on the internet during the past five years. The vast majority of these vehicles were sold without the buyer seeing the vehicle prior to his commitment. How was this possible? Our success can be directly attributed to our unique ability to evaluate inventory with consistency, insight and professionalism. This talent extends beyond our hands on assessment of a vehicles cosmetic and mechanical condition. It also includes our research of various data bases to determine past road history and service records. More than half of the vehicles we are asked to represent are rejected immediately because of obvious defects or concerns. An additional percentage fails to make the final cut following our research history.LCW randomly collects and studies data from past internet transactions. We have surveyed customers about their online experiences. Direct interviews and focus data are also compiled in an effort to better understand the Internet consumer. We have worked tirelessly to upgrade and improve our services, from the way our vehicles are screened and selected for Internet sale, to delivery and aftercare procedures. The lessons learned are insightfully applied to our Internet Marketing Program. Only the most fully sorted pre-owned vehicles in our inventory are presented through our Internet marketing program. In conclusion, regardless of venue, it all comes down to the quality of the inventory represented. While cliché, you can never pay too much for a great car. It also follows that a bargain price does not assure satisfaction. LCW knows the difference.

This is one of the most outstanding combination of miles and condition you are likely to ever find.

Market Analysis
We have been selling these cars for over ten years, and are well aware of there value. Let's face it--there are many of these around for cheap dollars in need of care. This is a show quality example that is certain to appreaciate dramatically in the coming years. A terrific value. Own a true piece of automotive history by the same designer as Ferrari for the cost of a Toyota.
Please note that the 1982 Spider with 39K miles we offered last week sold in less than 24 hours for $15,500. In our opinion, this car is very comparable in overall condition, and arguably has a more desirable color combination with lower miles.

A New Way to Buy Pre-Owned Luxury Cars
Buying a car at a dealership can be daunting. High pressure salespeople.
Limited selection. Adversarial negotiations. Not much fun.
But buying a car on the internet has its own unique challenges. The most
obvious concern is an online shopper's inability to test drive and evaluate
the car in person. While internet pricing can be attractive, some feel that
the unknowns outweigh the benefits. Horror stories about flawed vehicle
histories, incomplete documentation, misrepresentations, selective
disclosure, and title problems make many potential buyers cringe.
The LCW staff is your eyes and ears. We are marketing company representing
the finest Luxury Car dealers in Chicago. We maintain our impartiality by
independently evaluating each automobile submitted to us, and determining
whether it meets our rigid standards. We then act as a liaison between
customer and dealer to facilitate the fairest possible transaction to all
parties concerned. Our commitment to complete customer satisfaction is
unwavering.
Internet Marketing Philosophy
In our changing marketplace, internet sales have become a vital component to
every dealer's sales profile. The internet provides us with a low cost venue
to sell select inventory at near wholesale prices without compromising the
resources of a dealer's retail sales operation.
Internet car sales can take several forms, such as online classifieds and
auctions. The most popular, and arguably the most challenging, is Internet
sales. Our listings are generally offered on-line between five and ten day
time frames. We design marketing solutions for dealers who need to move
vehicles quickly off of their lots. Ultimately, the dealer has the final
word on pricing, and which internet venue best suits their needs.
LCW and our affiliates have represented over 1000 fine automobiles on the
internet during the past five years. The vast majority of these vehicles
were sold without the buyer seeing the vehicle prior to his commitment. How
was this possible? Our success can be directly attributed to our unique
ability to evaluate inventory with consistency, insight and professionalism.
This talent extends beyond our hands on assessment of a vehicles cosmetic
and mechanical condition. It also includes our research of various data
bases to determine past road history and service records. More than half of
the vehicles we are asked to represent are rejected immediately because of
obvious defects or concerns. An additional percentage fails to make the
final cut following our research history.
LCW randomly collects and studies data from past internet transactions. We
have surveyed customers about their online experiences. Direct interviews
and focus data are also compiled in an effort to better understand the
Internet consumer. We have worked tirelessly to upgrade and improve our
services, from the way our vehicles are screened and selected for Internet
sale, to delivery and aftercare procedures. The lessons learned are
insightfully applied to our Internet Marketing Program.
Only the most fully sorted pre-owned vehicles in our inventory are presented
through our Internet marketing program.
In conclusion, regardless of venue, it all comes down to the quality of the
inventory represented. While cliché, you can never pay too much for a great
car. It also follows that a bargain price does not assure satisfaction. LCW
knows the difference.
