Description
This classic car is for sale on Catawiki. To have more information or to place a bid click on the "BID NOW" button. .Maserati Ghibli GT (1996) in very good condition.
Ultimate GT, drives excellent, very well sorted, lot’s of torque, one of the few 2.8 GT’s manual (Getrag 6 speed) and Ferrari 456 rear axle and differential. Very low production numbers.
Most staggering is the car’s open road performance with zero lag and blistering acceleration in 6th gear. Indeed, contemporary press of the time concluded that “this is the car that the M3 should have been”.
All working mechanics, engine and twin turbos in perfect condition. Cam belt of waterpump changed early 2018 - not more than 5.000 km’s since. Tyres at 70 % of use. Differential and whole drive line in excellent order, no play at all (like these cars usually show).
A few minor chips and scratches, one lighter spot on boot (see picture), mostly original paint, deep dark blue. The parts who could rust in the hood have been repainted. 17 “ wheels are all damage free.
Interior in good condition with nice patina, warning light for lights comes up, but all lights work. Central lock doesn’t work and right electric window sometimes fails, the car comes with one key.
Car is in original condition, however fitted with excellent adjustable shocks (no electric ones that often fail), see picture, providing a much better than original ride quality. Stainless steel exhaust.
Originally from Germany, this Maserati was imported in 2016 by current owner to Spain. No service history, engine for sure had revision and runs extremely well, no need for expensive replacement of chain tensioners.
These cars are currently recognized for their true qualities and it’s the last iteration of this model series with Bi turbos. Selling because of lack of use.
Car is located in Ibiza, Spain
