Condition
#1 Concours
World-class. Could compete in the world’s best Concours d'Elegance events.
Restored in 2006 in Italy under the supervision of Adolfo Orsi, Jr. using the engine from another A6G/2000, itself renumbered from a previous chassis, 2004. Excellent fresh paint, chrome and interior. Only the driver's seat cushion is nearly imperceptibly stretched. The chassis, underbody and engine compartment are like new. Displayed in all the right places since the restoration but apparently driven only on and off show fields to the extent that its odometer shows just 278 km.
Market commentary
This Maserati is one of the highlights of the 2019 Scottsdale auctions, a magnificent example restored at great expense and attention to detail, then meticulously maintained to retain its beauty and crispness. It is hard to accept that this restoration is now some thirteen years old, but reasonable to accept the bidders' enthusiasm for it and the price it brought here.
