A pivotal moment for Maserati, the Biturbo was introduced as a
compact, attainable grand tourer designed to bring Maserati back
into higher-volume production. Developed under Alejandro de
Tomaso's ownership, the Biturbo concept blended traditional Italian
luxury cues, rich cabin materials, a formal roofline, and wedge-era
styling. Its headline feature was right in the name: a
small-displacement V-6 engine fitted with twin turbochargers, an
ambitious layout for an early-1980s road car and a clear statement
that Maserati intended to compete on excitement as much as
elegance. In Europe, the original 2.0-litre format was shaped by
tax rules, while other markets received larger displacements as the
range evolved. The Biturbo quickly expanded into a family of
coupes, sedans, and convertibles, making it one of the most
important platforms in Maserati's postwar history. Today, the 1984
Biturbo is known for its quick get up and go power and its
distinctive, and unmistakably Italian personality that has grown to
attract an enthusiast's cult-like following. Having owned an array
of Maserati models throughout the years, this 1984 Maserati Biturbo
caught the eye of Oscar Roberts leading him to acquire it in 2002
from a Florida-based enthusiast. The body is draped in an
attractive dark blue; furthering its appearance, it rides on gold
BBS RS mesh-designed wheels resulting in a "lowered" and memorable
stance. Inside the cabin features fine Italian leather bucket
seats, a Blaupunkt stereo with a stalk-mounted Dallas SQM88 tuner,
the "best of the best" of the '80s, and most importantly,
air-conditioning. The odometer shows just 27,537 miles, which are
believed to be actual by the seller, but please note the title does
read mileage exempt. Under the wedge-designed hood lies a 2.5-litre
twin-turbocharged V-6 engine with Weber carburetors that produce a
factory rated 185 horsepower. With three different transmission
options, this example is equipped with the most desirable
transmission option of its time, the ZF five-speed manual gearbox,
which adds to its fun driving abilities. Accompanying the sale of
this Maserati is a Biturbo service manual, owner's manual, electric
system manual, an array of service records, and a clean CARFAX�.
Upgraded with stylish period wheels and maintained by the
Collection for the last 24 years, this Maserati Biturbo which has
gained a cult following will make a great entry level enthusiast
collector car. * Clean CARFAX�
