1971 Maserati Ghibli 4.9L SS Chassis No. AM115492302 Engine No. AM115492302 Body No. 100563 · Rare & Desirable 335hp 4.9 Litre SS · Numbers-Matching as Per Maserati S.p.A. Certificate of Origin · A Masterpiece of style, balance, design and aerodynamic efficiency · Structurally Sound Throughout – Believed to Have 40K Original Miles · One of the most beautiful GTs ever conceived In 1969 Maserati launched the Ghibli SS, a sportier version of its flagship coupe with the dry-sump 90° V8 now enlarged to 4.9 liters. Prodigious braking performance came from the two twin-servo assisted ventilated discs with three pistons per caliper. This transformed the Ghibli SS into the fastest and strongest preforming Maserati road car in production. #2302 is a solid example of Maserati’s famed Ghibli 4.9 Liter SS Coupe, completed in July of 1971 by Officine A. Maserati S.p.A. The Ghibli is currently finished in an all Maroon livery, although this particular SS was originally outfitted in the most desirable dark blue over tan leather upholstery, with comforts worthy of such a thoroughbred GT: adjustable steering column, anti-theft steering lock, tinted & electric windows, reclining seats with head rests, heated rear windscreen, dashboard clock Panasonic AM/FM 8-Track and air conditioning. Long excursions are intended to be comfortable thanks to power steering and plenty of power on reserve from the 4.9 liter V8 motor. Maserati S.p.A. of Modena confirms with original Certificate of Origin that all chassis, engine and body numbers are matching as it left the factory. Driven just over 40k miles since new, this U.S. spec coupe has been in the same collector owner care for the last several years and today makes for an exceptionally solid base to drive, or casually put back to original form. The Ghibli comes from long-term storage; our inspection confirms compression is high and consistent on cylinders - the car runs and drives as is, but we recommend a full assessment and tune-up prior to any vigorous or distant driving. The undercarriage appears structurally very sound and still retains some original undercoat. The older re-paint and upholstery redo have aged but still remain very serviceable as a “driver”. Designed to compete with the Ferrari Daytona and
Lamborghini Muira, the Ghibli is among the elite in the vintage supercar market
and tremendously underpriced in comparison. This particular SS is sure to
satisfy the true driver-collector connoisseur at a reasonable price with plenty
of room for future restoration. Representing incredible value, we strongly
recommend serious attention from collectors and enthusiast alike.

Subcompact sales slump, yet again
Maserati ramping up production of Ghibli, Quattroporte
Thu, 12 Jun 2014While Porsche may be relatively new to the four-door game, Maserati has been building the Quattroporte with few interruptions since 1963. But like its rival from Stuttgart, the Trident marque is rapidly shifting from a sports car company primarily to a manufacturer of high-end family transportation. Not only does it have the new Quattroporte on the market, but now it's got the Ghibli sedan as well and the Levante crossover on its way.
It's a gambit that's reaping huge benefits not only for Maserati itself but also for its newly merged parent company Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, which is finding the mass market less lucrative than it once was and is positioning both Maserati and Alfa Romeo against other luxury marques like BMW, Audi and Porsche. As a result, Maserati is considerably expanding its production.
Last month, Maserati sold over 3,000 cars, putting it on track to double its sales from 2013. But it's not about to stop there. With growing demand for its authentically Italian luxury sedans, Maserati is shifting more workers to its assembly plant in the Turinese suburn of Grugliasco (where the QP and Ghibli are made) and shortening vacation time to ramp production up from 750 cars per week to 900.
Maserati releases quartet of videos featuring new Quattroporte
Tue, 06 Nov 2012In case you missed it, Maserati has decided to introduce the world to its next Quattroporte well ahead of its official debut at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show in January. As expected, it's beautiful.
Not content to leave well enough alone, the Italian automaker has revealed a series of videos to go along with the six images and press release it had already let loose upon the globe's unsuspecting automotive press.
We're still a bit shaky on the details, but Maserati says the Quattroporte's new engine, assembled by Ferrari in Maranello, will "[establish] new benchmarks for Maserati in terms of power and acceleration." That sounds good to us, though we're not sure if that means 530 horsepower as possibly alluded to by the license plate on the press shots. We also note that the automaker says the car is designed to accept "a wide range of engine architectures," so that rumored supercharged V6 sounds likely.
