Engine: 4.9L engine
Colour: Blue 'Pervinca'

The Maserati Ghibli SS (chassis 1570) is a 1970 example of the high-powered 4.9-litre variant that represented the pinnacle of the Ghibli line, built in a total run of roughly 425 units. Ordered in late 1969 and completed in early 1970, it was delivered in Blue Pervinca over white Connolly leather to a Rome dealership. Its original engine remains in situ, and the car has since undergone a full restoration in the United Kingdom to its factory colour specification.
