They are also the first Maseratis to feature a normally aspirated V8.
Excuse me? 5000GT? Ghibli? Bora? Mexico? Quattroporte I and III? Most of Maserati's GT cars between 1960 and 1980? Who wrote that of the 2002 Coupé and Spyder and what were they thinking/smoking? Respectfully, SamBlob ( talk) 19:32, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
There is no such edition and the link directs only to normal GrandSport — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ybsone ( talk • contribs) 10:23, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
The numbers 3461 / 3600 lbs seems rather light for such a large car (178x72), and it appears they are. Attached is the door panel from a 2002 convertible and the manufacturers own dry weight numbers are total: 4410 lbs, front 2250, rear 2160. Please re-confirm and update page.

For the 4th and last time the official name is Maserati Spyder 90th Anniversary (not Cambiocorsa, not GranSport)

Cloverleaf II the brochure does say Cambiocorsa. Plus dealerships won't sell cars with fake names. U1 quattro TALK 19:52, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
DuPont registry has a blog written by professionals and having editorial control, if you mean that some other pages on Wikipedia use DuPont registry sale listing as a source, that does not mean it's correct. And yes some dealers and distributors will do special editions, you can usually find secondary sources or a manufacturer press release talking about it, it says nothing about used car dealers being reliable sources.
Names are defined by those who do the naming, the manufacturer has the final word, and you have no proof that Maserati has ever called it "Maserati Spyder Cambiocorsa 90th Anniversary" and you have been shown many sources that are decidedly reliable that that is not what Maserati calls it, three editors disagree with you, and your sources are used car dealers and a photo caption, why are you still fighting this?
You seem to be edit warring against a very clear consensus. And adding some questionable sources does not mean that you did not violate 3RR. Toasted Meter ( talk) 07:25, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
So, I contacted Maserati Ybsone and as usual, no response from them even after a week. I knew it would be useless but I did that just to end this discussion. U1 quattro TALK 13:14, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
