About the 1972 Maserati Merak

Giugiaro's Merak stands as one of the most beautiful mid-engine designs of the 1970s, offering Maserati ownership at a more accessible price point than the V8 Bora. The 3.0-liter Citroën-derived V6 produced 190 hp, delivering genuine sports car performance in a stunning Italdesign wrapper. While purists initially questioned the French engine, the Merak's lighter weight and better balance made it surprisingly nimble. Only 1,832 examples were built over its 11-year run, making it considerably rarer than contemporary Ferraris. The distinctive flying buttresses and aggressive stance have aged magnificently, and values have steadily climbed as collectors recognize its significance in Maserati's history. Clean examples are becoming increasingly difficult to find, particularly with proper maintenance records for the complex Citroën SM-derived hydraulic systems.
