$200 is barely enough to pay for insurance a month.

i know you're not supposed to buy into internet hypes, but that audi 4.2 scares the crap out of me. If they'd done the chains, they'd have mentioned it in the ad

B6/B7 S4 Timing Chain FAQ / Information / Discussion Thread

Only $8K USD (according to Jalopnik, so likely into 5 digits in Canadian $)

Has anyone driven or had experience with these? Seems like a decent price for a lot of car. I'm blind to Maserati problems or driving experience

^^^ I know nothing but I don't think that older Gen f1 smg style gear box was great. I read about the quattroporte and every one said get a 06+? With the regular 6 speed auto rather than the older auto manual.

Looks good but I'd hold out for the 08+ 2.5 4 cyl as they have 170hp vs the 150 on the 07 model.

Rallydrv 05-14-2017 09:28 PM

Didn't these rdx with turbo had all sorts of problems. That's why they went v6? And no to pizza wrap.

lol i wouldnt mind DDing the car at all, beats my wifes curren DD of a versa hatchback by a mile, and i am spending 300 a month on that thing.... 170 insurance and abt 130 gas..... pretty sure insurance will be less than 300 a month... and gas is free... so its like a no charge upgrade with the wrap... which honestly i could care less about

Drive - aaaammmaaazzzing. The exhaust note is also very exotic.

Reliability - decent for an italian. The 4.2 dry slump v8 is ferrari built and is actually okay for reliability. Might have some issues with valve cover gaskets like all ferraris but overall stout.
The tranny on the other hand is a finicky.. not necessary unreliable just hard to live with day to day. It feels like being driven around by a guy who just learned how to drive manual. Shifts are lurchy at medium speeds. low speed is horrendously uncivilized but when you are actually booting it, it works and works well.
Dont know if this comes with Skyhook suspension, if it does i wouldnt get it. First generation skyhook system (adaptive suspension) was garbage and even nowadays the skyhook system is only mediocre.

I would check a few things before getting this
1) how many owners *i think this guy just got this not too long ago* 4200 are pretty rare.
2) take it to FMOV and pull the service records to verify all the service
3) get an inspection done by 3rd party, check for weeping valve covers and bushings especially.

If they all pass, 30k for a maserati is UTTERLY INSANE bargain. Just dont daily it and you should be okay. Or if you do daily it, find a good indy guy (i still havent found one yet) and you'll save a bundle.

This guy with the quattropote has been selling for a while too.. im sure you can get a decent price on it.
Tubi exhausts are like 5k by themselves.

Wonder how that was possible since they posted it at 11pm last night. Oh well.

Cheapest GT I've seen in a while. Obvious paint flaws. Would check for rust.



EDIT: For a little less (but with a couple of issues), there's this one

If your posting on CL makes it onto this thread, ... it's good as sold ... haha.

TouringTeg 05-15-2017 02:29 PM

That LS430 was a bargain if legit. I remember when you couldn't find one under 20k.

Someone probably saw it, contacted the seller right away, grabbed some cash for a deposit and bought it this morning.

That or it was fake.

Spectre_Cdn 05-15-2017 02:35 PM

I've seen multiple Lexus' (Lexi?) posted with the same background in the past year. At least one RX and another facelifted LS430 for ~20k, so it's probably not fake. Maybe someone with dealer hookups on trade-ins?

whitev70r 05-15-2017 03:28 PM

Pretty good priced Impreza hatch. 2008, 171K kms, $6000. Wonder if timing belt needs to be done soon.

I got the same reply this afternoon saying the Ls430 was sold too
