La 6CM è una autovettura monoposto da competizione costruita dalla Maserati dal 1936 al 1939.

Montava compressori Roots con a monte un carburatore Weber 55AS1 ed aveva un rapporto di compressione di 6:1. Il sistema d'accensione era a magnete Scintilla. Il propulsore erogava 155 bhp a 6200 giri al minuto . La vettura pesava 650 kg e raggiungeva i 225 km/h di velocità massima. La carrozzeria era in alluminio e il cambio era a quattro rapporti.
La vettura montava pneumatici di marca Pirelli.
Nel 1938 fu predisposta una seconda versione con un motore più potente (175 bhp a 6600 giri al minuto, sospensioni con molle a balestra di tipo semi cantilever. Nel 1939 ne fu preparata una terza, con piccoli aggiustamenti. Queste ultime due versioni avevano quattro valvole per cilindro, mentre la prima versione di valvole ne aveva due
Italian Art, Maserati was founded in 1914 in Bologna Italy.
Mario Maserati, a brother in the family, who was an artist and knew nothing about engines was called in to design the logo. Mario chose to use one of the most characteristic symbols of Bologna: the trident from the statue of Neptune in Piazza Maggiore, a symbol of strength and vigour........

This Maserati was originally built as a 1100cc 4CS and was raced in various Italian events during 1933. In 1934, the car returned to the factory to be upgraded to the latest 1500cc specification. It was subsequently sold to Swiss driver Ulrich Maag, who was sadly killed in a road accident shortly afterwards. The Maserati then passed to Maag’s friend Hans Ruesch.
The 4CS was registered WYM 44 in the UK in 2013, and was seen at the Classic Motor Hub.
The Ghibli SS is build from 1969 until 1973. Only 425 Coupes produced. I wondering I see one from this rarely cars in my small hometown.

The angular lines of this Maserati Medici Show Car typify the designs of Giorgetto Giugiaro, whose name is linked to many famous cars.
The first Volkswagen Golf, the Hyundai Pony, the DeLorean, the BMW M1, the Alfa Romeo Alfasud, the Saab 9000, the Audi 80 and the Lancia Delta all have one thing in common: they were designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro. The same applies to this Maserati Medici show car, in which, with a bit of imagination, you can detect elements of the cars listed above. The ‘Medici’ name was that of the famous Florentine banking family which had a strong influence on the development of the arts in the 15th and 16th centuries.
The Maserati, a luxurious four-door hatchback intended for official engagements, was first displayed at the Turin motor show in 1974. A striking detail is the steel-framed glass roof. The Maserati was displayed at the 1976 Paris motor show and is said to have been sold to the Shah of Iran.
Giorgetto Giugiaro began his career in the mid-fifties in Fiat’s styling department. He then worked for Bertone as well as Ghia. In 1968 he set up his own design company, which is now known as ItalDesign Giugiaro. This Maserati was acquired by the Louwman Museum directly from ItalDesign.

Production: 1 of 995 (1987–1994).
In 1986, Maserati launched the high-performance version of the Biturbo saloon called the 430 which was produced from 1986 to 1994. It was the flagship variant of the saloon range, which debuted the largest 2.8-litre version of the twin-turbocharged 90° V6 engine.
The 430 was distinguished by 15-inch 5-lug disc alloy wheels and a more rounded grille and hood, that later found their way to the rest of the lineup with the first 1988 facelift. The 430 was considered to be a full grand tourer, with standard leather upholstery and walnut veneered steering wheel rim, dashboard trim, door inserts, gear shift knob along with the handbrake lever.

Head on shot in the middle of a field at Beaulieu Supercar Weekend 2022. Managed to get the owner to position his beautifully maintained Maserati with a clear background to get some detail images of it.
