Descrizione

In the early 1960s, Maserati found itself in a different phase. The brand had built its reputation in racing, but also wanted to create a car that could be produced in greater numbers and was suitable for long-distance driving. The Maserati 3500 GT became that car. Not as a compromise, but as a deliberate step toward a broader audience.

A Maserati 3500 GT is a beautiful car—there’s no need to overstate it. The long hood, the relatively compact cabin, and the subtle lines turn it into a work of art. Carrozzeria Touring designed this coupé, and it is clear that careful thought went into how the car should sit on the road. Not aggressive, not flamboyant, but undeniably present.

This example dates from 1961, placing it in the early years of production. The 3.5-liter inline-six engine has its roots in Maserati’s racing history. Beyond its wonderful sound, what stands out is the way it delivers its power. Not a sudden burst, but a smooth, progressive build-up that perfectly suits this 3500 GT.

This particular example is matching numbers and was restored over a period of five years, with care and attention throughout. And it shows. This Maserati feels well kept, and the overall condition is very good and well presented. We invite you to take a closer look at the photos on our website for a detailed impression. The color combination certainly contributes: Argento Metallizzato paired with a black Connolly interior. A combination often seen on Italian GT cars of this era, and here it works exactly as it should. This is a Maserati with class.

Inside, the same impression continues. The leather has the right look, the dashboard is clear, and everything is exactly where you expect it to be. You can tell this is a car that was built to be driven, not just admired.

And then comes the moment you start it. The inline-six comes to life calmly, but as soon as you press the throttle, the character changes. You hear the carburetors working, you feel the engine respond. It is not overly subdued, yet not excessively loud either. Perfectly balanced. The beautiful six-cylinder sound is present without shouting, and that is exactly what this type of Maserati needs. With this car, you are taken straight back to the 1960s. The experience is simply outstanding—we have no other way to describe it.
