Some cars tell a story. Others represent an entire era. This 1964 Maserati Sebring 3500 GTi undoubtedly belongs to the latter category. Created during a period when Maserati was evolving from a successful race car manufacturer into a producer of exclusive gran turismos, the Sebring represents one of the most elegant chapters in Maserati’s rich history.
This exceptional example is from the coveted first series and is finished in the rare "Acqua di Fonte" color, which adds to its exclusivity. The subtle shade highlights the refined lines of the bodywork designed by Carrozzeria Vignale.
The car's history is as impressive as its appearance. In 1964, it was purchased by Baron Toulo de Graffenried, a former Maserati Grand Prix driver and notable figure in international motorsports. It remained in Lausanne for many years before passing through a select group of owners, all true enthusiasts and connoisseurs of the brand.
An accompanying historical dossier includes invoices, photographs, documentation, and supplementary materials, providing an impressive overview of this Maserati’s history. The car also comes with official Maserati certification and related documents.
This Sebring is an exceptionally well-maintained example. The bodywork is stunning, with the paintwork perfectly showcasing the elegant design. The chrome trim is in excellent condition, complementing the refined body color. Inside, the high-quality leather and materials reflect the car’s distinguished status.
Based on the successful 3500 GT, the Sebring was developed under Giulio Alfieri’s leadership, combining racing-inspired technical expertise with long-distance comfort. It built upon those foundations, adding an even more exclusive character.
Ultimately, a Maserati like this cannot be fully appreciated through specifications alone. Its true character reveals itself when the engine roars to life and the first miles are covered. The steering feels lively, direct, and mechanical, creating an engaging driving experience that has become rare in modern cars. Everything works together as a classic Italian gran turismo should.
This Maserati Sebring 3500 GTi offers a rare opportunity to own an exceptionally well-documented and certified example with a distinguished provenance. A car for the true connoisseur—one that doesn’t demand attention but commands it effortlessly from those who understand its significance.
