We saw a 1971 Ghibli 4.7 coupe (S/N 115 2392) sell for $71,628 on February 14 at Christie’s Retromobile auction in Paris 2004. [ in France since 2004 ]
Leaving the factory in 1971, chassis 115.2329 was delivered in the north of Germany. In 1982, it changed hands to join a very important collection from the Essen area. It was then restored with original new spare parts, in spite of its very low milage (27,000 km). In 1997, its new owner entrusted the car to the Maserati importer in Germany where it was equipped with a new exhaust system and completely overhauled, for a bill totalising some 20,000 DM of the time. Its condition is so exceptional that it is invited to enter the Louis Vuitton concours d’élégance at Bagatelle, Paris, that same year. It is then acquired in an auction in 2004 by Gilles Bonnafous, renowned car journalist and father of the present owner. It’s a story of love at first sight, the fulfilment of a 40 year old dream. In 2010, he gave to his son this very exceptional Ghibli, a real grail cherished by all its different owners, of which he used to say : « To drive this masterpiece at 100 km/h is like dancing in Mona Lisa’s arms ».

Reading only 35,000 km on the odometer, this sky blue with beige leather interior example is a serious contender to any “concours d’élégance”. Equipped with the rare period options of 4 Borrani wheels and power steering, this Ghibli registered in France is accompanied by its tool roll, restoration invoices, service booklet and original owner’s manual. The engine will be revised by Pierre Nallet (Garage du Trident) before the sale. Without any doubt, this Maserati Ghibli represent to any amateur the opportunity of a life to acquire one of the most beautiful example on sale on the market or even the most remarkable of all.

This rare (one of 425 built), top-specification 1973 Maserati Ghibli 4.9 SS Coupe was first used by the factory as a demonstrator prior to being delivered in June 1973 at 24,000 km to R. Liechti A.G. in Bern, Switzerland. Finished in Marrone Corrado (Corrado Brown) over Senape (Mustard) leather upholstery, the Ghibli was delivered with an Autovox radio, power steering, and tool roll. At some point in the Ghibli’s life the original engine was replaced with a correct 4.9 SS unit numbered 1738.

This Ghibli was purchased by Neil Peart in late 2013 from its then-owner in Lugnorre, Switzerland, and imported to the US, where Ken Lovejoy serviced and maintained the Ghibli for Mr. Peart throughout his ownership. In keeping with Mr. Peart’s “Silver Surfers” collection theme, the Ghibli received a refinish in silver during 2014. Tan leather and correct Campagnolo alloy wheels provide beautiful accents. Further significant work included installation of a new stainless steel exhaust system in 2017 and an overhaul of the air-conditioning system in 2018, including a conversion to modern R134a refrigerant. According to Mr. Lovejoy, the Ghibli was one of Mr. Peart’s favorite vehicles to drive and enjoy, and his ownership is exhaustively documented by purchase, importation and registration paperwork, and a wealth of detailed service and maintenance records, plus the aforementioned copies of original factory production and delivery records. As offered, this exceedingly well-maintained Ghibli 4.9 SS Coupe is ready to be enjoyed and appreciated.Mr. Peart’s special Ghibli features correct Campagnolo center-lock alloy wheels, and it was added to his impressive group of “Silver Surfers” upon its importation from Europe in 2013.

Sold Coys 2007

This example was delivered new to Rome and is still presented in what is perhaps one of the very prettiest colour combinations on a Ghibli, Azzurro Artico over “Senape” (Tan) Connolly hides.
This particular Ghibli remained in Italy until 2014, when it was exported to Germany, right before being acquired by the current Belgium owner.
The general condition of the Ghibli can best be described as an older restoration that is still showing nicely.
This particular example left the factory with power steering and air-conditioning.

It retains its original matching numbers engine, which runs perfectly.
The bodywork has been repainted at least once but retains the original factory colour scheme.

At Retromobile. 5 speed and power steering. It was on the stand of the restorer Provost from Le Mans. They displayed the semi complete car last year.

For sale Aug 2014.
One of the very last Ghiblis supplied by the factory in 1973, built in December 1972.
The car was newly delivered to a Lebanese prince in Lebanon.
When the atmosphere in the country became a bit too hectic the prince shipped his wives(!) and his cars to his estate in England. After a few years the prince decided to part with the car because he did not feel secure with the left-hand drive car on the English country lanes.
The car was picked up by an English collector who used the car occasionally to make trips on the continent. After the collector decided to limit his collection to pre-war cars he offered the Ghibli to a friend of mine who fortunately informed me about the opportunity.

Fully restored to original specs!

Confirmed 2015

One of only eight right hand drive cars, this beautiful 1972 Maserati Ghibli SS Coupe was supplied new to the UK and was housed in a private collection for over twenty years.
Dated 20th January 1972, the original order from Maserati of Modena confirmed this Ghibli SS was ordered via importer Citroen Cars Ltd. of Slough and was specified right hand drive with options of power steering, radio and two fog-lights. The car was finished in Rosso Fucco with Pelle Nera (black leather).
The original buff log book that accompanies the car confirms the Maserati was first registered (BTV 11K) on the 12th April 1972 and was supplied via Bristol Street Motors, Nottingham to a Mr Malcolm Stephenson of East Ayton near Scarborough, Yorkshire on the 12th May. Mr Stephenson owned the car until May 1976 when it was acquired by Lingdale Garage in Saltburn before being purchased on the 10th November 1982 by David Rhodes of Gatley near Cheadle in Cheshire.
By now registered 6 TPE, on the 12th April 1988 the Ghibli became part of the Classic Car Collection of Ian Wade of Mayfair, London and Shepley, Huddersfield where it would remain for over twenty years. During this period the car underwent a full restoration, being stripped to bare metal and repaired and re-painted in the current Blue Chiaro by noted Ferrari and Classic Car Coachbuilders Leslie Monk and Son. All mechanical and suspension parts were removed and were reconditioned or replaced where necessary, bright-work was re-chromed or replaced, the interior was refurbished along with new carpets and the engine and gearbox were stripped and rebuilt. The wheels were refurbished and new Michelin tyres fitted along with a new stainless steel exhaust system. Mechanics were undertaken by Graham Schultz of Modena Engineering with work being completed around 1996. The car was then displayed in the private museum collection until 2011 when Mr Wade sold the car and retained the registration 6 TPE so the Ghibli was re-registered to its current registration; BRJ 113K.

The car was then assessed ahead of re-commissioning by Maserati specialists R & D Automotive of Manchester who confirmed the restoration was to a very high standard with the engine showing excellent compression.

With just 2 subsequent owners, this SS has since taken part in several classic car events including the Goodwood Revival and last years’ Royal Concours at Holyrood, Edinburgh.

The car remains in excellent condition which reflects the quality of the previous restoration and comes complete with its original buff log book, Maserati certificate of origin and a generous history file.

Lots of images here.

I own a Ghibli SS spider conversion transformed in italy directly out of the factory with original spares from the factory based on one of the very latest coupé produced. The client wanted a new spider and that’s what the factory proposed him as they stopped producing the spider before the coupé.

Leather inside almost perfect
