Maserati 3200 GT

Tipo 338 — Giugiaro's return to Maserati, twin-turbo V8, and the boomerang LED tail lights.

Overview

Why this car matters

Tipo 338: Giugiaro's return to Maserati with Enrico Fumia's interior; the AM585 3.2 twin-turbo V8 quoted at 370 bhp — diplomatically below Ferrari's contemporaries during Ferrari's stewardship; the boomerang LED tail lights were among the first LED lamps on any production car, and their non-compliance with US visibility rules is why the 4200 replaced it for the American return.

The last Maserati twin-turbo V8 road car and Giugiaro's return to the marque. Specification, condition and documented service history are the defining factors.
