Overview

Since 1999. Roadster Salon. has been passionately restoring Italian cars. This ultra low mile. rust free example was originally from a southern US climate. It can be ready for delivery in less than 30 days. versus the 4-6 month time line for our other models.

 

As shown on our website. Roadster Salon's least expensive full restoration is our "Avanzato" model. starting at $39. 95. Occasionally we come across a vehicle with extremely low miles. or a previous restoration--that does not require the full scope of work undertaken in an "Avanzato" level restoration.

 

An example of this is the car listed here. As the name implies. the "Orginale" takes a less encompassing approach. and restores the spider to a more original standard. Materials more in keeping with the original car are used. and a tighter more budget oriented strategy adopted. The result is a car that can be completed for about $10k less than a full Avanzato restoration.

 

All costmetic and mechanical concerns have been lovingly addressed. The end result is nothing short of outstanding. Hundreds of man hours have been spent carefully maintaining all original touches from 1983. Please visit www. roadstersalon. com to learn more about our passionate endeavors restoring these Italian works of art.

 

What is an "Originale" restoration?

 

Firstly. our Fiat based restorations fall into three categories. An Originale. Avanzato and Lusso. Our least expensive restoration process can only be undertaken on cars that are already in good overall condition. and do not require complete top to bottom rehabilitation. Originale versions must be re-painted in their original color. Cars are partially disassembled before paint. Interiors are refurbished to a more basic level with standard materials.

 

Mechanical repairs are limited to safety and performance issues--not full scale rebuilds. Repair and replacement items are prioritized and budgeted accordingly. Vehicles restored to an "Originale" standard still qualify for our limited warranty.

 

Cosmetic items replaced include convertible top. dash. console. carpets. seats. and more.  

 

Avanzato approach is much more costly.

 

Paint work is more ambitious. with vehicles fully disassembled before re-spay. General paint preparation is far more extensive. Cars are taken down to bare metal and can be re-sprayed in the color of your choosing. Paint cost is typically more than double budgeted amount in an Originale restoration. Interiors are replaced completely. and feature high-end leather & wood upgrades. Mechanical work is more pervasive--not limited only to obvious items in need of repair.

 

Cosmetic Impressions

 

Close inspection shows a car that appears fresh and original. The black/tan color combination is both sporty and elegant. Great dynamic contrast. All key cosmetic items have been either replaced or refurbished. Car has been refinished in its original color combination to remain true to the intent of the manufacurer. and keep the finished cost below $30K.  

 

Mechanical Impressions

Car is a joy to drive. although test runs have been kept to a minimum due to the extremely low original mileage on the car. It can easily be shown and transported from event to event---or actually driven daily. This is one of the most outstanding combination of miles and condition you are likely to find at this price point.  

 

All key aspects of the car perform as intended. All mechanical concerns have been addressed prior to delivery. Car comes with our exclusive warranty. A+

 

Driving Impressions

 

A spider is unlike any vintage sports car you are likely to experience. Even the most basic version has timeless lines and is extremely entertaining to drive. The Originale version holds true to the orginal ideal. Unlike our other more highly modified versions--this spider is true vintage driving experience in every sense.

Pininfarina designed automobiles have been described as rolling works of art. Like a conservator who restores a classic painting to its original splendor—our artisans take forgotten. road weary Spiders. and return them to a time when they were loved and enjoyed. Our spiders are hand crafted by a team of certified Ferrari mechanics and Italian car specialist. Every chassis is thoroughly screened. refurbished and tested---so that new memories can be built confidently with the turn of a key. Roadster Salon recreates memories of our youth. Simpler times of sunny days. wind in our hair. troubles left behind and a curvy road ahead.

Roadster Salon spiders are the evolution of a classic ideal. built to be enjoyed whenever the passion arises. Our intention is not to make a brand new car. Even our most ambitious projects do not change every nut and bolt. We seek to restore beauty. improve reliability. and retain practicality. Roadster Salon Spiders are meant to be driven and enjoyed. not just shipped from show to show.

 

We currently offer four models intended to fit the needs of most customers. From the austere Classico. the high value Basso. premium Avanzato model. to the exotic Ultimo--each package offers superior value for the dollar. Every car can be built to suit the needs and tastes of individual clients. New offerings like the Lusso package and Spider Corsa provide even further inspiration. Custom features. options and color selections are yours to decide. The process is interactive. You dream it. we build it.

 

 

 

LUXURY AUTO GROUP/ Internet remarketing solutions

Buying a car at a dealership can be daunting. High pressure salespeople.
Limited selection. Adversarial negotiations. Not much fun.

But buying a car on the internet has its own unique challenges. The most
obvious concern is an online shopper's inability to test drive and evaluate
the car in person. While internet pricing can be attractive. some feel that
the unknowns outweigh the benefits. Horror stories about flawed vehicle
histories. incomplete documentation. misrepresentations. selective
disclosure. and title problems make many potential buyers cringe.

The staff is your eyes and ears. We are marketing company representing
our own inventory. sourced from some of the finest luxury car dealers in Chicago. Our commitment to complete customer satisfaction is
unwavering.

 

Internet Marketing Philosophy

In our changing marketplace. internet sales have become a vital component to
every dealer's sales profile. The internet provides us with a low cost venue
to sell select inventory at near wholesale prices without compromising the
resources of a dealer's retail sales operation.

Internet car sales can take several forms. such as online classifieds and
auctions. The most popular. and arguably the most challenging. is Internet
sales. Our listings are generally offered on-line between five and ten day
time frames.

We have represented over 1000 fine automobiles on the
internet during the past ten years. The vast majority of these vehicles
were sold without the buyer seeing the vehicle prior to his commitment. How
was this possible? Our success can be directly attributed to our unique
ability to evaluate inventory with consistency. insight and professionalism.
This talent extends beyond our hands on assessment of a vehicles cosmetic
and mechanical condition. It also includes our research of various data
bases to determine past road history and service records. More than half of
the vehicles we are asked to represent are rejected immediately because of
obvious defects or concerns. An additional percentage fails to make the
final cut following our research history.

Our company randomly collects/studies data from past internet transactions. We
have surveyed customers about their online experiences. Direct interviews
and focus data are also compiled in an effort to better understand the
Internet consumer. We have worked tirelessly to upgrade and improve our
services. from the way our vehicles are screened and selected for Internet
sale. to delivery and aftercare procedures. The lessons learned are
insightfully applied to our Internet Marketing Program.

Only the most fully sorted pre-owned vehicles in our inventory are presented
through our Internet marketing program.

In conclusion. regardless of venue. it all comes down to the quality of the
inventory represented. While cliché. you can never pay too much for a great
car. It also follows that a bargain price does not assure satisfaction.

Luxury Auto Group knows the difference.
