The 1956 Maserati A6G 2000 Berlinetta Zagato – A Masterpiece of Italian Craftsmanship

It is our opinion that Maserati company is an Italian luxury car manufacturer that we shouldn’t teach our readers.Although you may often remember the Ferrari and Lamborghini brands as Italian cars, the Maserati brand is a world-renowned luxury and sporty car manufacturer with a history of over a century.

Once the revolutionary of the 1960s as one of the fastest car manufacturers as well as the fastest car makers, they always tried to compete side by side with Ferrari’s cars, which were the forerunners of the automotive industry at the time.

Among them, the A6 series, built in their 1947 to 1956 years, was a fast and comfortable car series. The 1956 Maserati A6G 2000 Berlinetta Zagato, our title today, as one of the most unique vehicles made in this A6 car series, shows a rare and attractive car.

The vehicle was priced at at least $ 4.25 million, according to American auctioneer RM Sotheby’s estimates. This specific model competed at the Mille Miglia competition in 1956 and is one of the 20 cars ever built. It was restored for two years and went through and won two awards at the 2014 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.

The original engine and gearbox issued by the factory is still on hold, which is made with unique charm, including a single fancy grill (singularly ornamented grille) and its own unique design.This is the out of twenty rare vehicles built with a special lease of Zagato 4-speed manual gear system with a 2.0 L Inline 6 engine that can be produced in 160 horsepower.

Here Zagato is an independent car body manufacturing(coach-building) company in Italy and a complete design center located in Milan, Italy. The company is renowned for creating and developing specialised super lightweight bodies for sports cars to various car manufacturers worldwide.

Zagato Sportsmanship is born here with round headlights and a big trident logo like a two-piece chrome bumper that’s sure to bring glitter to the eye. Its Borrani wire wheels, small ovary back lamps and split chrome bumper makes the elegance even more.

Its race-inspired interior (race-inspired) retained seats, leather on door boards, and a wooden edge features the steering wheel adds very competitive to its generation’s indigenous rival, Ferrari 250 SWB.
