Market commentary
While Lamborghini was rewriting super car standards in the late 60s and early 70s with its Miura, Ferrari and Maserati were still offered the front engined 365 GTB 4 Daytona and Ghibli. They are the ultimate expression of the front engined GT and the few convertibles offered are legends. This is particularly true with Ghiblis such as this 4.9SS Spider. With its uprated engine and many comfort and convenience features it is a fantastic high speed touring car, even better with its fantastic 70s color combo. This is, however, a staggering price, more than double the value a Ghibli SS Spider has ever brought at auction before. Have collectors suddenly discovered these marvelous, beautiful, fast cars The new owner better hope so.
