Description

The 1973 Maserati Indy America is often overlooked in favor of its more famous sibling, the Ghibli, but that only adds to its allure. While the Ghibli projected raw sex appeal and two-seat aggression, the Indy offered something more nuanced—equally Italian in spirit, yet with a 2+2 layout and a subtler sense of power. It was Maserati's answer to grand touring with a conscience: fast, exotic, and just as capable of crossing continents as it was at turning heads on the Riviera. And this example, originally delivered new to Belgium with the factory invoice still present, is a rare opportunity to own one in its finest mechanical form.

Beneath the long, angular hood lies Maserati’s classic 4.2-liter V8, a quad-cam masterpiece breathing through four Weber carburetors. It’s a dry, hard-edged engine that snarls with every touch of the throttle—more raw than a Jaguar V12, more alive than anything from Stuttgart. The factory claimed 290 horsepower, but the soul of the car lives in its delivery: smooth, bellowing, and unmistakably hand-built. This car has been upgraded with an electronic ignition system to bring sharper starts, cleaner combustion, and more consistent performance without compromising the spirit of the original mechanicals.

One of its most compelling features is the stainless steel exhaust, which amplifies that V8 signature with a sharper, richer tone. It doesn’t scream—it sings, and the sound is as much a part of the drive as the steering or throttle. It's exotic in every sense of the word: from the feel of the cabin to the smell of hot metal and fuel after a spirited run.

Over the past 11 years, approximately €45,000 has been invested into careful servicing, mechanical rejuvenation, and thoughtful preservation. This isn’t a car that’s been "restored" in the overdone, concours sense—it’s one that’s been kept alive and driven, as its makers intended. Everything about it feels dialed in and honest, from the firm brake pedal to the way it tracks straight and true at speed.

This Indy America doesn’t try to be a Ghibli, and that’s precisely the point. It stands apart—more rare, more usable, yet every bit as charismatic. It is an Italian V8 thoroughbred with the provenance, history, and mechanical integrity to back it up. For those who know, it represents the smarter, deeper cut of Maserati ownership. Not the cliché, but the connoisseur's choice.
