By: Brooklands Books .
In the year that Maserati won the Formula 1 World Championship they began to focus on low-volume production of high-performance road cars. All the early cars had the 3.5L six-engine, upgraded to 3.7L in 1964. Later there were 4, 4.2, 4.7 and 4.9-litre engines.
Many of the cars had bodies built by Italy's finest coachbuilders. All were low-volume specialist cars, but sales volumes increased and the 1968 GT was on sale worldwide. This period ended when, fearing an economic turndown, the company was sold to Citroen.
This is a book of contemporary road and comparison tests, new model introductions, technical and specification data, designs analysis, driving impressions and history.
