69stylez has a better one cuz it has a Japanese geriatric drivers badge
That adds like 100hp and makes it AWD and MR and FR whenever the condition calls for it.

I've owned a 94 and 95 SHO... MTX and ATX respectively.
Amazing engine, but the rest of the car is garbage. I do enjoy that generation Taurus styling though.
This dealer is shooting for the moon, MTX and mileage are both a plus but the cloth seat combo is no beuno and parts are getting really, really scarce for these cars. Lots of trouble spots. I sold my mint automatic 95 at peak Covid prices for $5k so $8500 in this market is a tough sell.

Not to mention the other Maserati / Ferrari issues like delaminating leather interior. Seat heaters that catch on fire. Variators in the early gen 4.2L engines, etc etc etc

I thought the cgt is relatively reliable, and you can try to get by with real beetle parts. You may need engine out once every 5 years kinda thing. But the engine trans AWD is relatively reliable. But on the Maz you will have to go though Ferrari tax. Rust, corrosion issues.
