Keep in mind that this car is a 1987. It is not a new 2014 model. As mentioned, the clutch does not work and the master cylinder needs to be rebuilt. A potential bidder asked what the car needs to be a daily driver. Again, this is a 1987 car, not a new 2014 car. I don't know many people that drive 1987 cars on a daily basis and people maintain their cars in a broad level of perfection from complete neglect to fastidious so such a question is hard to answer. We are selling the car as is and have given as accurate a description of condition as we are able. Maserati owners usually have several or many cars and don't drive any of them every day as their only car. Cars should be driven often as machines are built to use but most high performance cars are not driven a lot thus most have relatively few miles on them. This car is no exception. This Maserati was last run about six months ago. We do have a new top and front windshield that can be purchased separately.
