For 2025, the Maserati lineup includes three core models: the mid-engine MC20 Berlinetta and its GT2 Stradale variant, the GranTurismo and GranCabrio grand tourer coupes and convertibles, and the Grecale SUV. The entire lineup is available in both internal combustion engine and electric versions, known as Folgore.

Originally a small, artisanal firm focused primarily on racing before the war, Maserati gradually shifted toward mass production and began focusing on road cars in the mid-1950s with the 3500 GT. Over the years, other landmark models have marked the brand’s history, such as the 1963 Mistral, the 1966 Ghibli, the mid-engine Bora introduced in 1971, and the extensive Biturbo lineup, which spanned from 1981 to 1998.

Maserati was founded in 1914 in Modena, in northern Italy. It is one of the oldest luxury car brands still in business.

Maserati is currently part of the Stellantis Group, formed in 2021 through the merger of FCA (Fiat Chrysler Automobiles) and PSA Peugeot-Citroën. Acquired by Fiat in 1993, Maserati has had several owners throughout its history, including the Orsi family, Citroën, and later Alejandro de Tomaso.

Since the introduction of the 3500 GT in 1957, Maserati has never strayed from its identity; the brand has always attracted a clientele of connoisseurs who are as passionate about performance as they are about style and refinement. Today, as in the past, Maseratis embody the quintessence of Italian grand touring—an epicurean and enlightened philosophy that places elegance above all else.

Depending on the model, Maserati prices can vary significantly. While the least expensive Biturbos go for around 7,000 euros, a 1990s Ghibli can fetch up to 25,000 euros. As for the great classics, the extremely rare 5000 GT now fetches over a million euros, while the Mistral and Bora are available starting at 200,000 euros. A major rival to the Ferrari Daytona, the 1966 Ghibli is now worth up to 700,000 euros in its convertible version.

Like any exceptional car, a Maserati must undergo thorough and meticulous inspections. These are complex, sometimes delicate vehicles that cannot tolerate a slapdash approach to maintenance and repairs.

• Vehicle history: Verify that the service record is complete and that all work has been performed by qualified workshops or within the manufacturer’s official network.
• Overall condition and specific inspections: A thorough inspection by a brand specialist is strongly recommended, particularly for models built up to 1998.
• Fuel consumption: equipped with powerful engines (6-cylinder or V8 in most cases). This mechanical excellence naturally comes at a cost in terms of fuel consumption, and this factor should be taken into account.
• Reliability and potential issues: each model has its own specific characteristics. While the V8 used in the early Ghibli or Bora models demonstrates great durability, the same cannot necessarily be said for the electrical system or certain peripheral components. If you opt for a model from the Biturbo family, you’ll need to be extra vigilant, as these cars are as high-performance as they are mechanically fragile.
• Maintenance and repair costs: Classic Maseratis must be maintained with the care and expertise they deserve. This implies above-average maintenance and repair costs, which can be very high for certain services. Don’t hesitate to consult the buying guides published in the specialized press to learn more.

By taking all these precautions, you’ll protect yourself against potential disappointments that could arise from a hasty purchase decision.
