As I've said, the '87 with EFI and air-air intercoolers was the only one worth a drat when they were new, but even the '87, when new, was troublesome. Here's a Motorweek review from that time... they complain of it running rough when cold. poo poo, at least it ran. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JF5RjmEGgc8

I think one of the posters said it best earlier - this engine, and its related systems, is a carnival of bad ideas.

Thirty eight grand in 1988  I love the interior on the BiTurbo but there's no way that a 325is wouldn't be a leagues-better vehicle. How much would the 325is have been at that time? I think they were still under 30k but I'm not sure.

They were in the 26~ish range. So the value of the Maserati mystique is over ten thousand dollars. That's good to know.

This was the corner of a bracket somewhere under the left rear of a beat to poo poo Sonata replacing lower control arms. Once it was washed off it turned out to not be very deep, it was more akin to the time i was bored on mushrooms with a potato peeler.
