Tough to pick where WO impacting the debate about why Maseratis are the Rodney Dangerfields of what should be really valuable vintage cars such as these 5000 GTs. I doubt the more run of the mill GT cars will ever be that valuable but I don't see why their status should affect the 5000 GTs? Those were very bespoke high end cars.
The price for each one is 1.5 million euros. I believe that the market for the 5000GT is still strong. Just last week, I sold a Maserati 5000 GT with the VIN 103.046 for almost 1 million euros, and I sold another 5000GT for the same price last year. Although the market for these cars is quite good, there are still interested buyers. It may take some time to find the right buyer, but I've heard that 048/064 is already almost sold.

Ferrari, whether we like it or not, is at the forefront of the classic car market. Maserati is and always was, in the Ferrari shadow.
everything is in Ferrari’s shadow. The Classic Car Trust’s demographic study of the top 100 collectors in the world showed as no surprise Ferrari is the #1 collected brand by a wide margin, followed by Alfa, then Maserati and Bugatti all separated by just a few percentage points.
I would consider a 1,5M$ offer for mine. I’ll throw in a couple of extra doors for free Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Actually, I don't think that is quite correct.. When the actor playing Ken Miles is listening to the race on the radio in the shop while the rest of the team are at LeMans, the race announcer mentions Maserati. A very quick reference! Mike
there are so many inaccuracies in that movie, only surpassed by the recent Lamborghini movie from Tonino Lamborghini. it’s one of those “why ruin a good story with the truth”
Yes, there are many mistakes. 2 important once: 1. Enzo Ferrari himself was NEVER in Le Mans. 2. On a long straight you never do downshifting to overtake a car. Either you car has the power to do that ...or not! But yes, it was a good story and -heyyy- its from Tinseltown....!
my personal favorite was how Enzo used Ford’s bid for Ferrari in order to extract a higher price from FIAT. It was so successful that it only took 7 years for Enzo to get more money from FIAT.
gozza’s book says that is how he believes Enzo orchestrated the entire thing anyway. The endgame was always Fiat, but Fiat had to be made to pay a number Enzo thought was fair. I can’t imagine what number Fiat offered to Enzo at first. Those conversations probably occurred in the early 60s but we have heard nothing about that
Has Alex Manos at BHCC REALLY got hold of one of these? Let’s hope it is in better shape than most of his other stock! Image Unavailable, Please Login
Watched the new Lamborghini movie on Netflix...its a joke. Particular, when you here the ol`Ferruccio saying to his son "You are such a smart, good looking young man..." Aaaargh!!! Gandini, who created with his genius the magic Miura and the Countach, was not even mentioned in this silly picture....
Yes,…it sold recently for about $420K. It is what you would expect from BHCC. It’s tired, has rust and an older restoration that isn’t holding up well; it needs to be restored agin. I assume Alex will double the price when its offered.
