YOU ARE LOOKING AT A 1984 MASERATI QUATTROPORTE. THIS CAR IS A SERIES III MODEL, OF WHICH ONLY 2155 WERE BUILT. THE VEHICLE WAS THE BRAINCHILD OF ALEJANDRO DE TOMASO OF PANTERA ,MANGUSTA AND LONGCHAMP MODELS FAME. THE BODY WAS DESIGNED BY GIORGETTO GUIGIARO. THE FIT AND FINISH ON THESE CARS WAS TREMENDOUS COMPARED TO OTHERS AT THE TIME. CONSIDERED TO BE BY MANY THE BUSINESSMAN'S FERRARI, THESE VEHICLES WERE MORE SPACIOUS THAN A BENTLEY MULSANNE AND HAVE GATHERED GLOVE LEATHER AND BRIARWOOD TRIM EVERYWHERE. THE POWER COMES FROM MASERATI'S BULLETPROOF 4.9 V-8 MOTOR WITH 280HP. 0-60 TIMES WERE RECCORDED AT AROUND 9 SECONDS. THAT IS PRETTY IMPRESSIVE IN A 4650 LB VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WE HAVE FOR SALE IS AN OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE OF THESE AWESOME MACHINES. I HATE TO SELL IT , BECAUSE WE GET SO MANY PEOPLE WHO JUST WANT TO LOOK AND SIT IN IT, BUT I MUST. THE CAR HAS 75000 MILES AND IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE INSIDE AND OUT. THE INTERIOR IS LITERALLY LIKE NEW,AND ALL THE DOOR HANDLES AND ELECTRICS ARE WORKING PROPERLY. IF I HAD TO GRADE THIS CAR I WOULD PROBABLY GIVE IT AN 8 OUT OF TEN. THE ENGINE FIRES UP INSTANTLY , AND ONLY TAKES A MOMENT TO WARM UP. THE TIRES ON THE CAR ARE ALMOST NEW AND THE ORIGINAL SPARE AND TOOLS ARE THERE. I ALSO HAVE BOOKS FOR THE CAR AS NOTED IN THE PICTURES. THE POSITIVES. SUPER CLEAN INTERIOR NO RIPS OR TEARS SUPER CLEAN EXTERIOR ONLY MINOR BLEMISHES EXTREMELY CLEAN UNDERNEATH WITH NO SIGNS OF RUST COMING THROUGH ALL ELECTRICS WORK NEW COOLING FAN RELAY SWITCH AND WIRING HARNESS RELAY UPGRADE. WORK WAS DONE BY LOCAL MASERATI TECH. RUNS, DRIVES AND STOPS GREAT! THE NEGATIVE 3 MINOR SPOTS OF RUST STARTING TO BUBBLE ON THE HOOD. [ AN EASY FIX} AC COMPRESSOR LINE IS DISCONNECTED. COMPRESSOR IS THERE BUT APPEARS TO BE ORIGINAL OLD FREON SYSTEM CAR COULD USE PLUGS, WIRES, CAP AND ROTOR. MASERATI TECH SAID IT WOULD RUN MUCH SMOOTHER WITH THIS DONE. THAT'S ABOUT IT REALLY. THIS IS AN OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE OF A CLASSIC ITALIAN MACHINE AND I WOULD THINK THEY WILL ONLY GO UP IN TIME AS AVAILABILITY GETS HARDER. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME WITH ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE AND I WILL ANSWER THEM TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. RESERVE IS SET VERY LOW!!! SO HAPPY BIDDING!!
