A collectors dream!

The Maserati Ghibli was introduced at the Turin Auto Show in 1966 as a replacement for the Mistral. Ghibli is an Arabian word referring to a hot, dry wind in the Sahara desert. First penned by a young Giorgetto Giugiaro while he was working for Carrozzeria Ghia, the motorcar was free of the safety restrictions that would plague automotive designers later in the 1970s. The Ghiblis shape was hailed as being ahead of its time with its firm, straight surfaces. Giugiaros intention was to showcase the large front mounted engine with its long, wedge-shaped front end which was highlighted by an integrated front bumper, pop-up headlamps and a slanted hood that lead to a curved roofline with a short tail. The design almost instantly earned praise from throughout the automotive industry, especially Car and Driver magazine who, in 1968, referred to it as a gorgeous design. The frame that held the Ghiblis stunning appearance was a strengthened version of the Mexico and 3500 chassis, utilizing the same well-tuned suspension that had previously made Maserati a household name on race tracks across the globe. Power was derived from a 4.7 liter dual overhead cam V8 fed by four Weber DCNL carburetors that delivered over 300 horsepower. Dry sump lubrication further enhanced the V8s performance and meant that the 4.7 liter was great for torque at lower revs verses the high revving V12 engines of Ferrari and Lamborghini at the time. Only 1,170 Ghiblis were produced from 1967 to 1973 as their excellent combination of quality and performance was reserved for only the most discerning customers. Factory options were available with only a handful of Ghiblis leaving Italy with the 3-speed Borg Warner automatic gearbox that allowed the auto to swing effortlessly through traffic. During the period of its production, the Ghibli was praised for its excellent combination of style and performance. Today, they are rarely seen except in some of the worlds most premier collections.

The 1967 Maserati Ghibli Coupe featured here is finished in stunning Argento Auteuil Silver with a gorgeous black leather interior. Daniel Schmitt acquired this magnificent motorcar from one of his personal friends who purchased it in Southern California nearly 30 years ago, drove it back to St. Louis and stored it in the garage since. After Daniel Schmitt acquired it, he commissioned a 2-year long, concours-level restoration that is documented with a $100,000 in receipts. Accompanying this investment-grade Maserati Ghibli is its full Maserati classiche documents, owners manual, service records, factory tools, jack and more.
