The Maserati Coupé and Spyder are grand tourers produced from 2001 to 2007, now replaced by the GranTurismo. The two nameplates refer to the four-seater coupé and two-seater roadster versions, respectively, with both models being based on the 3200 GT which was sold in Europe, although not yet in the United States. The Spyder was first unveiled to the public at the 2001 Frankfurt Motor Show with the coupé's debut following shortly after at the 2002 Detroit Motor Show. Sales in the United States began in March 2002 for the Spyder and in May for the Coupé. They were both designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro of ItalDesign who also designed the Maserati Ghibli. Interior design was outsourced to designer, Enrico Fumia and the cars were constructed at the Viale Ciro Menotti plant in Modena, Italy.

This blue convertible Maserati Spyder with magnolia leather interior is presented in a classic colour combination and is a very handsome sports car. However, the car has been parked in a garage for four years and unfortunately as such, a number of problems associated with non-use have surfaced. The engine runs although there are electrical problems with the gearbox and whilst the vendor has had the car driving recently, we are advised, regrettably, that problems still persist. The convertible roof is also, at time of writing, non-functioning - again due to electrical issues. The mileage is believed to be correct, although this is unverified as there is no history available with the car.

Viewing is highly recommended to satisfy any concerns regarding the mechanical condition of this car but ultimately this represents a golden opportunity to purchase an impressive car at significantly below market value.
