What should I offer?

Is that a for real Ferrari? Wheels look very odd. Sitting real high as well, almost like the motor is out of the car.

kit car, a fiero, likely. See the fuel door? Ferraris don't have fuel door there.

Run, Forest, Run really far.

 

Yeah it’s a kit car.
Rear glass does not wrap around it’s just flat. Amber tail light should have a back up lense with clear insert, side mirrors look Pontiac. Looks like there’s no frame around the door glass.

 

Looks like a Mera. Meras were kits placed on Fieros by the GM dealers.

Another dream shattered!

 

The 328 GTB has a 1/4 of the rear glass covered with the black grill, driver side rear window has the fuel cap...this one does not have the fuel cap there...as stated before it probably is a kit car

Definitely not real.

 

I thought you were just making a joke when I read the first part of this thread.

That is certainly a Fiero with terrible mods. No Question

 

It would have been exhilarating if the OP bought the car for $20k or so, trailered the car home and realized he had a $1k Fiero resto project on his hands...

And, those actually have at least a LITTLE bit of value. Certainly an interesting blip of history. But, certainly nothing that came out Maranello.

 

That's actually kind of cool, just wish they didn't try to make it look like a Ferrari.

 

To haul it away for them if they pay you $150 to $200......

 

I’d buy a nice 4.7 granturismo to put the miles on, since they tend to depreciate anyway, but are fantastic cars to drive, and in my experience, very reliable and sound awesome. The savings I’d put as a down payment on a really nice either California, or better still, 458.......... something for the weekend sir?

 

You won’t get a 458 for that money unless it’s been hammered, you need to be looking at a proper example of one, and I personally would go 2012 onwards as there were a few early mods that ferrari made. Use the spare from the purchase of the maser to make a big downpayment, you won’t regret it

As far as maseratis go, I think you should be looking around 2014/15 cars, most depreciation done (it will still drop, but it will be acceptable), great engine, all the niggles sorted for the model by then, some very good software made its way into engine and gearbox, and most masers are like Ferraris, they don’t get driven far, so using it for a couple years as a daily won’t terrify on mileage when you come to sell it.

I promise you, you won’t regret it when you hear that engine roaring away on the twistys!

 

Even if it was a 328, the current value would not cover an extensive restoration for a car sitting for decades.

 

For $120k you can get a well sorted, low mileage, very nice 430!

 

Okay, I laughed.

Even if it wasn't a Fiero kit car, a 328 in that condition would be worth virtually nothing.

 

Really? Consider

NLA fog light lenses: $2k
NLA heater switches: $1K
Pair of front seats in bad condition: $1K
Steering wheel, if original in lousy condition: $500
Engine as rebuildable core: $5K
Gearbox for spare gear sets: $3K
Set of straight wheels: $2K
Any body panels: $500, times 10
CPU: $500
Headers:$500
Suspension pieces, brakes, $1K

Sure, it may take a while to find all buyers but ... worth nothing is harsh.
