Rare Maserati Tuned 16-Valve Turbo * 5- Speed Manual * 13,626 Original Miles * Original Window Sticker
This 1989 Chrysler TC by Maserati Convertible is an exceptionally well-preserved, low- mileage example of one of the most unusual collaborations in American and Italian automotive history. With just 13,626 original miles, this remarkable car combines Italian craftsmanship, luxurious appointments, and turbocharged performance in a distinctive two- seat grand touring convertible. What makes this particular TC especially desirable is its rare drivetrain: the 2.2-liter DOHC 16-valve turbocharged engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.

This is the enthusiast-preferred configuration, produced in very limited numbers compared with the more commonly encountered automatic models. Finished with beautiful chrome accents, genuine leather upholstery, and distinctive Maserati detailing, this example presents in outstanding condition, with an interior that still retains the rich aroma of leather. Adding considerably to its appeal is an impressive collection of original documentation and accessories, including the original laminated window sticker showing an MSRP of $35,550, owner's manuals, factory literature, hardtop stand, Maserati accessories, and original equipment.

For collectors looking for a particularly special example of the Chrysler-Maserati collaboration, this is a car worth serious consideration. Rare 2.2L DOHC 16-Valve Turbo & 5-Speed Manual
The centerpiece of this TC is its 2.2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine featuring a dual-overhead-cam, 16-valve cylinder head, paired with a desirable 5-speed manual transmission. This high-performance engine was developed specifically for the limited-production TC program and is distinct from the more common 2.2-liter turbocharged Chrysler engines of the era.

Factory-rated at 200 horsepower, the 16-valve turbo engine delivers spirited performance and makes the manual-transmission TC especially appealing to driving enthusiasts. Engine & Drivetrain Highlights:

The Chrysler TC by Maserati was the result of a partnership between Chrysler and Maserati, combining American engineering with Italian coachbuilding and luxury craftsmanship.

Built in Italy, the TC featured distinctive bodywork, a richly appointed interior, and a level of hand-finished detail not commonly found in Chrysler's regular production vehicles. The project was intended to create an exclusive personal luxury roadster, and the original $35,550 MSRP reflected its premium positioning in the marketplace. Today, the TC represents an interesting chapter in both Chrysler and Maserati history, particularly in the rare 16-valve, 5-speed configuration.
