Description

Transmission: 3 gears, Automatic

The Ghibli SS was introduced in 1969. The new engine had a capacity of 4,930 cc and was rated at 335 PS (246 kW; 330 hp) at 5,500 rpm and 481 N⋅m of torque at 4,000 rpm. With a top speed of 280 km/h (174 mph), it was the fastest Maserati road car ever produced at the time. SS models have an additional /49 designation (e.g. AM115/49). A Spyder version was introduced the same year. Total production was 45 Spyders and 425 coupes.

Specifications
The Ghibli used a tubular frame with a spot-welded body. The front suspension used the double wishbone type, coaxial dampers and coil springs, and an anti-roll bar. At the rear there was a live axle on semi-elliptic springs, with a single longitudinal torque arm, hydraulic dampers and an anti-roll bar. Magnesium wheels were standard, originally fitted with Pirelli Cinturato 205 VR15 tires until 1972, when this changed to 215/70VR15 Pirelli Cinturato CN12, while Borrani wire wheels were optional. Even by the standards of its time and class, the car consumed large amounts of fuel, but Maserati fitted the car with two independent 50 liter fuel tanks, which could be filled via side valves.

This Ghibli presented here is equipped with an automatic gearbox, which makes the car very special. The low mileage of 32 thousand miles is remarkable. This is the real mileage. The car was delivered in the USA after which it went to England and was then transported to Switzerland and then ended up in Germany. There is an appraisal report included and the condition is near concours. The technical condition of the car is excellent and difficult to find in today's market. A beautiful Maserati for the true enthusiast.
