I found the car on sales from a BMW dealership. The deal seems to be too good to be true. They are asking only $38,000. I searched the used price online. Only NADA gave me the info. It should cost at least $50K. Maybe the car was involved in an accident but it is still too cheap...

Interior of 2002 Maserati Spyder...Help! by maskat

Can anyone out there tell my why all of the plastic Interior parts: switches, steering wheel case, CD area, vents, etc are dissolving...actually melting away. I love driving my car and am the original owner. But since having this problem, have not been able to enjoy my car! I get Black 'goo' in my fingernails, black rubs off on my clothes...just no escaping this unfortunate situation...
I have emailed different Dealerships but no one has made any contact with me.
Has anyone experienced this, can someone please shed some light on what I could do about this? Thank you!!

This has happened to me with several convertibles...BMW, Saab and Maserati. The problem is that the rubberized finish on the plastic bits is broken down by the sun's UV. The material softens and becomes tacky and unsightly. One way to fix the problem is to replace the trim pieces....but this is very expensive. The other way I have found is to remove the trim pieces one by one and remove the rubberized coating with acetone. This is a delicate job because you want to remove the coating but you do not want to melt the underlying plastic. Therefore nail polish remover is more mild...will take more work...but will not melt the plastic so easily. Remember that you have to avoid any bits with printing on them beacuse the acetone will remove the print as well as the rubber coating. Also ensure that the bits you strip are black plastic as some of the bits are white...caution...and good luck..
