Description
1986 Maserati Bi-Turbo Convertible. Less than 300 left in North America. Collector's car. Low original miles of 42,000 miles. Was none-op for 10 plus years. Only drove a few time year to lube the engine. With TLC, it would be $25k plus collector's car. No low ballers, will ignore. Needs battery. ...
Our Take:
- Rare and distinctive: The 1986 Maserati Biturbo Convertible was part of a highly ambitious project for Maserati, aiming to bring Italian luxury with an exotic flair to a broader audience. With less than 300 of these convertibles reportedly left in North America, spotting one is like seeing a unicorn on a busy highway.
- Performance with character: Underneath its elegant exterior, the Biturbo featured, you guessed it, a twin-turbocharged V6 engine. At the time, having a twin-turbo setup was quite the engineering feat for a production car—think of it as the Ferrari of the boulevard cruiser world.
- Cult status: Though it was known for its temperamental nature (like a moody Hollywood diva), the Biturbo has earned a cult following among vintage car enthusiasts. The automotive equivalent of a vinyl record, it’s all about charm and character over cutting-edge technology.
- Historical charm: Maserati, a name dripping with racing heritage, decided to take a leap into the unknown with the Biturbo. It marks an era when even performance-oriented brands were trying to branch out—kind of like a rock band experimenting with a new sound.
