Vehicle Detail
Looking for something different? Something you don't see everyday? Well, take a good look at this, up for your consideration is a 1989 Maserati BITURBO 2 door coupe 228 5-speed manual with 44,202 original miles. Overall, this car is in good condition with new tires. Most of the time it's in the garage with the exception of the occasional Sunday drive. When new, these were luxurious-upscale cars, very well appointed for their time. Currently inspected until 3/2015, however it's been driven less than 200 miles since the last inspection. At this time everything works as it should. Please see pictures as they are part of the description, there's nothing out of the ordinary or any major issues associated with the car. You could drive and enjoy it the way it is, it's up to the new owner as to how picky you want to get with it. Overall, this car is in good condition with new tires, I would rate it as a 2-3 on a 1-6 scale, 1 being showroom condition & 6 being a parts car. I posted the rating guide at the bottom of the listing. Thank you and good luck. Please read below, Your satisfaction is most important to me, after all you may buy this vehicle sight unseen.

CLASSIC CAR CONDITION RATING GUIDERATINGDESCRIPTION1EXCELLENT/SHOW CAR A masterpiece, this perfect original car is in the same condition it was in when delivered new or better; or a professionally-restored car that has been restored to new or better than new condition. This car is not driven, and is transported to shows in an enclosed trailer. Normally stored in a secured, temperature and humidity controlled environment when not being shown, this car would be expected to come within a point or two of a perfect score when judged by professionals using current criteria.2FINE An original car with very low miles that has been meticulously maintained since new; or an older professional restoration that has seen very limited use since restoration. Very close inspection by an expert may detect almost insignificant flaws or wear, but to most enthusiasts the car would look perfect. This car would come within several points of a perfect score when judged, and would receive the top award at a show unless a true Number 1 car were also being judged.3VERY GOOD A well-maintained original car that has been driven limited miles over the years; is completely operable with all equipment working as designed, and at first glance may look perfect; or an older restoration that has been driven limited miles since the restoration was completed, and is showing minor wear and tear from being on display at car shows. Closer inspection may reveal minor wear on parts susceptible to showing wear, such as brake and gas pedals, and some thinning of paint and chrome finishes may also be noticed.4GOOD Major components function properly, and the vehicle is completely safe to drive but may need minor repairs to mechanical systems. No parts are missing, but this car has been driven on a regular basis and may need a paint job and a few trim pieces rechromed or replaced. Amateur restorations usually fall into this category, as do very old professional restorations that have deteriorated due to use and exposure to the elements.5RESTORABLE May or may not be running; everything on the car needs to be restored; may be missing minor parts, but the major components are there. Any body damage due to collision or rust should be minor; some surface rust may appear, but no holes should be present. The car is structurally sound, but needs cosmetic updating to paint, upholstery and top material, as well as repairs to various mechanical components.6PARTS CAR Probably not running well, if at all; missing some major as well as minor parts; may have serious body damage due to wreck or rust through. Soft trim and rubber parts are most likely completely ruined from weathering and exposure. This vehicle needs many parts and has deteriorated to the point of not being a good candidate for restoration.
