When you think about it this is still reasonable money for what is a very prestigious, fast, luxurious and discrete car, it certainly looks very good value compared to a lot of 1990s hot hatches and those cars which have a scene tax, £60k for a Ford Escort anyone? Whilst Biturbos don't have a great reputation, most of this is due to armchair experts who are referring to the early carb equipped cars which were indeed a little problematic, later cars were better built, faster and dare I say it, reliable. For such a small company in the 1990s it is amazing to think that cars such as the Shamal were faster and cheaper than the contemporary Ferrari 348, and that the Ghbili Open Cup race car was faster around Fiorano than the Ferrari 355 Challenge race car, one reason why Ferrari axed the Ghibli race series when they took control in 1996. Unfortunately the Biturbo era will always suffer from a certain amount of snobbery when compared to the classics and the more modern cars, but they are my favourite models from Maserati's history, perhaps I'm a weirdo?
This particular car has had an absolute fortune spent on it mechanically but it did have some minor rust bubbling when the last owner sold it. I note that in the ebay advert the 222 SE badges are now missing from the bootlid so one could perhaps assume that the car has now had some paintwork and perhaps the previous minor issues have been addressed. If this is the case then I think this car is reasonably priced, the market is limited but the vendor will always have the power to say "find another one".
Here is a youtube video showing a walkround when the previous owner was selling it:
