Maserati Quattroporte 4.9 V8
Original Dutch delivered Quattroporte 3 4.9. In excellent condition and a rare appearance. “Only” 2,025 copies were built of this typical late 70s icon. To give you an idea, Mercedes-Benz built 7,380 copies of the 450SEL 6.9 alone and 437,000 of the total W116 series. This makes this Quattroporte an exclusive and rare appearance and it knows how to degrade almost every modern exclusive car to an insignificant mass product. The Quattroporte was the creation of then Maserati owner Alejandro De Tomaso. He said goodbye to the concept of the type 2, which was equipped with front-wheel drive, coupled with a V6 engine. The Type 2 was, at the time, actually nothing more than a weak derivative of the Citroën SM, with which it certainly did not deny its origins. No, Alejandro De Tomaso was certainly not a fan of Citroën and he showed that with this type 3. The type 3 is the absolute top of what the Italian automotive industry had to offer! The last one that was made entirely by hand and with the luxury of a top limousine with the character of a sports car. Equipped with a short-stroke V8 engine, manufactured in the Maserati house, and coupled to an automatic 3-speed gearbox, from Chrysler. No wonder that the Quattroporte was a popular car with government leaders. But celebrities also knew how to appreciate the Quattroporte 3. One of them was Luciano Pavarotti who was a big Maserati fan! Perhaps because of the sound of the impressive V8 engine. The Quattroporte 3 is designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro who turned the type 3 into an impressive work of art. This Quattroporte 4.9 has been very well preserved and has driven very few kilometers considering its age. It is also noticeable that she has been treated very carefully and economically. Come and get to know this potential increase in value and be surprised by this beautiful Italian automobile!
