Metallic grey ('Grigio New Market Metallizzato')

A 1962 Maserati 3500 GTi, one of only 441 fuel-injected examples produced between 1961 and 1964, bodied by Carrozzeria Touring in aluminium over a tubular steel frame and powered by a Lucas-injected six-cylinder derived from the 350S racing car. Delivered new in Milan in June 1962 in Grigio New Market Metallizzato over red leather — a combination it retains today — the car has been held in static storage within the Petitjean collection since 1996 and shows under 51,000 km on the odometer.

Are you the owner of this car?

This car's public record is built from its auction and competition history. Register your ownership and privately add your own records to make it a verified Legacy Metrics passport — provenance that backs your car's value at sale and gives your insurer evidence to price against. Roy reviews and verifies every registration personally.

Each chassis record is compiled from public auction archives and links to its source material. Ownership, competition and maintenance entries are extracted from those catalogue listings by an LLM, which can make mistakes — please contact us with any corrections. The summary is Legacy Metrics’ own writing; we do not reproduce catalogue text.

“Full” and “partial” documentation labels indicate how well each entry is corroborated in the underlying sources, not an audit of the car’s physical paperwork. Names of recent or living owners are withheld for privacy.
