RARE.... Maserati Khamsin

1974 Maserati Khamsin, one of 430 made between 1974 and 1982. Estimated 300 remain with maybe 60 of those in the US.













Clear plastic panel for easy viewing for backing up.........

Re: RARE.... Maserati Khamsin

That's got to be one of the best looking cars I've ever seen. What is something like that worth?

Re: RARE.... Maserati Khamsin

Wow, that car looks like it's brand new! (besides the styling of course)

It kinda reminds me of one of those weird looking older Lamborghini's in a way.

Great job!

Re: RARE.... Maserati Khamsin

I was reminded of this car when someone posted a Lambo recently (I think it was TH0001 on his Canadian escapade) with a similar clear panel in the back, then I got all confused. But this is the car that I saw, about 30 years ago, I was bringing a piece of electronics to be fixed by a guy that worked out of his house, and while walking me to his workshop we walk thru the garage and here's this Maser sitting there. His was a goldish color, IIRC.

Cool car, cool detail, thanks for the memory! Great Bertone styling.

Re: RARE.... Maserati Khamsin

Wow that looks good. It looks extremely similar to the DeTomaso Pantera. The interior is definetly different but the outside looks like it.
You left it very nice, great job.
