Detailed Description

A well-equipped and recently updated Piper Malibu offering an exceptional combination of speed, range, and executive utility. N37VM features 6,684.6 hours total airframe time and a Continental TSIO-550-C1B with just 380.4 hours since overhaul, completed by Victor Aviation Services in January 2022.

The aircraft is equipped with a modern Garmin avionics suite highlighted by a G600 TXi 2-Tube, GTN 750Xi, GMA 35c, GDL 69A, Flight Stream 510, and GTX 330, complemented by a King KFC-150 autopilot and Electronic International VA-1A.

A 140-gallon fuel capacity upgrade, combined with approximately 14.5 GPH fuel burn and 195 KTAS cruise speed, provides an impressive 1,500 NM stated range. The aircraft also features air conditioning, de-ice boots, and an executive four-passenger interior.

The aircraft presents exceptionally well, with a new interior completed in June 2026, exterior paint completed in 2020, and no known damage history. The propeller received an IRAN in January 2022 and has 658.7 hours since overhaul.

N37VM is an attractive Malibu for the owner seeking turbine-like speed and capability in a proven, efficient piston platform with modern avionics, meaningful range, recent engine work, and a fresh executive interior.
