The Maserati Ghibli Coupé by Ghia

Vehicle Overview

The Maserati Ghibli appeared in 1967 as Maserati’s answer the Lamborghini Miura and Ferrari 275GTB/4. The Ghibli may not have had the wow factor of the Miura, but the Giorgetto Giugiaro (of Ghia) penned body was quite striking in its own right. It was a huge departure from the attractive but more traditional Sebring that it replaced. The long, flat hood swept gently up to a steeply raked windscreen and over a fastback roofline. The Maserati Ghibli: Exploiting the success of the V8 engine, fitted both to the Quattroporte and 4-seat Mexico coupé, in 1966 Maserati presented at the Turin Motor Show the most sports version of their range, a sleek 2-seat coupé which in the name recalled its exciting performance: Ghibli, the desert wind. Designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and built by Carrozzeria Ghia, the Ghibli is believed one of the most beautiful example of the Italian styling of the Sixties. The engine position, in the front and very low, thanks to the dry oil sump lubrication, allowed Giugiaro to design a low, sports but at the same time elegant body which had a great sale success. Produced in both 4.7-liter and 4.9-liter engine version (the latter called Ghibli SS), both coupé and spider, the Ghibli could be fitted on request with the automatic transmission too.
