Model overview

Model description

The Maserati Ghibli was an Italian gran turismo produced from 1967 to 1973. With its long, sleek Giugiaro-styled steel body and aggressive posture, the car debuted at the Turin Motor Show in 1966 to much fanfare.

Ghiblis share their underpinnings and mechanicals with the Mexico 2+2 coupe and Quattroporte sedan, and power came from a dry-sump, twin-cam 4.7-liter V-8. The engine breathed through four twin-choke Weber carburetors, produced 310 horsepower and 341 ft-lb of torque, and was mated either to a ZF five-speed manual or three-speed automatic transmission. Top speed was rated at 154 mph, with 60 mph coming in just under seven seconds.

The Ghibli benefitted from four-wheel disc brakes, with double wishbone suspension, coil springs and an anti-roll bar up front, and leaf springs and an anti-roll bar in the back. Twin 13-gallon fuel tanks fed the thirsty V-8. With a curb weight of 3,637 pounds, it was no lightweight, but no one ever seemed to lament a lack of performance.

As if the standard Ghibli weren't enough, in 1969 Maserati unveiled the Ghibli SS, which carried the same powerplant, but enlarged to 4.9 liters. Horsepower was bumped up accordingly, to 335, and the SS topped out at 175 mph, making the car the fastest production Maserati. SS Ghiblis came fully loaded, with niceties such as leather seating, tinted power windows, a heated rear window, air conditioning, and more.

Also available in 1969 was the Ghibli Spyder and SS Spyder. Mechanically, each was identical to the coupe on which it was based, but while the hard top car was a 2+2, the Spyders were strictly two-seaters. A factory hard top was available, though only a handful were ordered so equipped.

In 1970, minor changes appeared on the Ghibli, with revisions made to the headlights, dash, and headrests.

In 1973, the Ghibli's final year of production, only SS variants were offered. When the model gave way to its Khamsin successor, a total of 1,170 coupes had been built, and only 125 Spyders—25 of which were SS models.

While the Maserati Ghibli may have lacked the V-12 cachet of its Ferrari Daytona rivals, the gorgeous gran turismos never lacked for power, sophistication, or admirers. The same can be said today.

Many factors can increase a car's value including excellent condition, exceptional originality, a recent restoration, low mileage, unique provenance, desirable options, popular or unique color choices, and excellent maintenance records. Upgrades and modifications that enhance performance or aesthetics can also add value.

Factors that can decrease a car's value include unusually high mileage, poor maintenance history, visible wear and tear, accidents or damage, title issues, and gaps in ownership history. Additionally, less popular color choices and extensive modifications that don't appeal to a broad audience can reduce value.

Mileage plays a significant role in a classic car’s value. Lower mileage usually increases value because it indicates a higher degree of originality, is rarer, and suggests less wear and tear. However, cars with exceptionally low mileage may also have maintenance needs due to lack of use. Whether someone should pay more for a vehicle with lower miles will depend on how they plan on using it, and the vehicle's specific condition.

The value of modified cars differs widely based on the type and quality of modifications. While some modifications can significantly increase value, especially performance enhancements and high-quality custom work, others may not add much or could even detract from the car’s value if they appeal to only a limited audience.
