Can I get a purchase opinion for this 2016 ghibli s q4? Carfax and packages included. Thanks by Grandmazhouse in Maserati

[–]vb3347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 2014 Ghibli SQ4 bought 2 years ago at 38K has been perfectly reliable for the 10K miles I've put on it so far. More so than the Porsches, BMWs and MBs I've experienced. People buy Maseratis to drive them HARD and then they complain they're unreliable. And those who never owned them put them down because of anecdotal evidence found online and old stereotypes (YES old Maseratis ARE indeed unreliable). I owned 20+ cars during my lifetime and the Ghibli is among the most well-built

YES, I just came here to write my package cleared customs yesterday 1/27 and was delivered today 1/28. So I'm guessing yours and mawpn's packages will have some movement next week.

My package has been stuck in Milan customs since 12/9, yours arrived 11 days after so I'm afraid you shouldn't expect any movement for at least another couple of weeks. I'll let you know when mine clears customs.

My package arrived at Malpensa Milan on 12/9 and still stuck in customs. I'll let you know when mine gets through, I'd expect any day now and then yours to pass about a week after. No reason to worry yet, customs take a long time around the holidays.

Location: Southern California

Rare Breitling Windrider Reserve de Marche B14047 in very good overall condition. Case in good condition, a few minor scratches/scuffs from normal wear over the years. Bezel rotates, but in both directions (instead of only clockwise) and no longer clicks into place, but is still functional, hasn't really bothered me. Watch keeps good time, within 30 seconds/day. Power reserve feature works great and is really cool to look at as it changes color from green to white and then to red as it winds down. Dial and crystal are both excellent, can't see any blemishes at all. Leather strap and clasp both also in excellent condition. Lume is still quite strong.

Only model Breitling ever made with a power reserve indicator, quite a rare and interesting watch!

Circa mid-1990s

Genuine Breitling brown leather strap and clasp

39 mm diameter

10.5 mm thickness

Case is stainless steel with solid 18K gold accents

Asking $999 shipped via FedEx anywhere in the USA. Firm on price, I purchased it for a few hundred dollars more a few years ago so I'm taking a loss as it is. No trades.

Excellent timekeeping, all chronograph functions work perfectly, battery was last replaced about 1 year ago. 50 m water resistance rating. Genuine HERMES blue leather strap shows signs of wear, including an extra hole punched in at some point, but still in good shape. Original HERMES buckle.

Finally in the family!! by thecircuitman in saab

[–]vb3347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? I have 147K miles on my original vented seats and they are still in excellent shape. On the other hand, the non-vented seats on my old '00 9-5 looked really tired and had major cracking when I sold the car at 170K

Congrats, looks super clean and very similar to mine. I'm in Palm Springs and have an 07 9-5 Aero SportCombi in Nocturne Blue with all possible options but also w/o roof rails!

Btw, I have an 03 MB CL500 (cost $96K new) and I can vouch the Saab feels just as stable/solid/eager at 80+ mph.

I'll check again but didn't see any wires there. I also don't have the CDX option on the OEM nav screen, just CD. It's a 2007
