Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
The only Zagato-bodied Maserati A6G/2000 Spyder, displayed at Geneva in 1955 and Paris in 1958. Restored in 2003, shown at Pebble Beach, class winner at The Quail and Best of Show at Concorso Italiano in 2005. First owned and modified for Argentine president Juan Peron. Beautiful engine compartment with some fuel and oil residue. The steering wheel rim has one small but obvious ding. Fully suede trimmed cockpit shows some age but little use. The chassis is fully restored. An exceptional car, no longer fresh but still desirable and rare. Oscar Davis collection.
Market commentary
A beautiful but unusually restrained car coming from Zagato, with five chrome strakes across the fender side vents, a Maserati trident of epic size in the large oval grille and a wraparound windshield without wind wings that gives it a Lancia Spider America profile. Beautifully restored in handsome colors, but not as much as it did at RM's New York auction in 2013 when it sold to Oscar Davis for $4,455,000. Bid to $3.2 million on the block, sold later with this result and a choice Zagato-bodied Maserati at a realistic price.
