Brummen, Netherlands
This 1981 Maserati Merak SS is a used car showing 13,246 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Silver with a Beige interior.
Supplied new in Switzerland in 1981, this late SS remains largely as it was specified at the factory. Its highlight is the cabin, trimmed in leather to special order and so well kept that the seller has rarely seen its equal; correct folded edges, seams and finishes are the small clues that give an original car away.
The silver paint suits the sharp lines Giugiaro drew from the Bora. The odometer reads 13,000 km, which is thought to be the genuine distance, although the seller presents it as an indicated figure.
The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.
The Maserati Merak SS uses the 2,965 cc 90-degree V6 derived from the Citroën SM engine, with three Weber carburettors, rated at 220 PS (162 kW), with a five-speed Citroën transaxle behind the mid-mounted engine, driving the rear wheels. Giugiaro derived it from the Bora, with open flying buttresses behind a vertical rear window. It seats 2+2.
