About the 1959 Maserati 3500GT Spyder

With only 245 examples built, the 3500GT Spyder ranks among the rarest postwar Maseratis. Vignale's interpretation of the 3500GT platform traded Touring's reserved elegance for more dramatic styling, featuring distinctive side vents and flowing lines that would influence future Maserati designs. The convertible's slightly more powerful 235-hp engine and improved aerodynamics delivered marginally better performance than the coupe. Originally priced nearly $1,400 above the hardtop, these Spyders commanded serious money when new and remain blue-chip collectibles today. Their extreme rarity, combined with Vignale's masterful coachwork and the model's historical significance as Maserati's first series-production convertible, makes them among the most desirable 1960s Italian convertibles. Finding a good example requires patience and deep pockets.
