Maserati Biturbo Spyder

Maserati sold a four-seat sport coupe from 1981 to 1994 called the Biturbo, for its twin turbochargers. This is the converitble Spyder model.

 

The engine is likely a 2.5-liter or 2.8-liter V6, as that engine was commonly available outside Italy. Engineered by DeTomaso after taking over the company and designed with a nod to the Giugiaro style, it was uncharacteristically aimed at a mass market and as a possible BMW 3-series competitor. But it never sold well, and it was dropped after Fiat took over the Maserati marque.

 

It's still an interesting car, and I got this shot at C&G Auto Tech in Caldwell, New Jersey.
