Grazie, ho sentito dire che le prime serie erano ostiche e poco affidabili, oltre ad avere problemi di qualità dei materiali. Sulla [g]si[/g] invece i problemi di gioventù dovrebbero essere spariti.
Ecco cosa ho trovato:
The Biturbo reached full maturity by the end of 1986 with the introduction of the 'Biturbo i' (1986-1988). Following lengthy research and testing, the Maserati 6 cylinder engine was finally equipped with a Weber/Marelli electronically controlled fuel injection and ignition system.
From the outside this new car was hardly distinguishable from the previous model but for the "i" badge on the rear boot lid, however, its driving temperament had radically changed. Its driveability improved greatly especially when driving around town in congested traffic, throttle response was both instant and progressive, while the chronic problem of difficulty when starting became a thing of the past.
On the "Si" version, also equipped with electronic fuel injection, the two intercooler were re-sited in front of the radiator and the NACA vents on the engine bonnet were more aesthetic than functional. A rear spoiler mounted on the boot lid not only added a sporty look but improved downforce at high speeds.
The 'Biturbo Si' (1987-1988), thanks to a power output of 220 bhp, was capable of a top speed of 145 mph. It was available in only three colours: red, grey blue metallic and black, and finished in dark grey below the character line. The interior trim, recognisable by the newly designed seats and the briarwood gear lever knob, were finished in tan leather and Alcantara for the bluey grey versions and in cream leather and Alcantara for the more expensive "Si Black" version. These were the swansong years for the Biturbo.
Mi dai ulteriori info a tua conoscenza? Ti ringrazio moltissimo, voglio mettere in garage un giocattolino con cui divertirmi, non una suocera con cui inc#**rmi!!!
