About the Maserati 3200 GT
The 3200 GT marked Maserati's return to form under Ferrari ownership, replacing the boxy Shamal with elegant curves designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro. It is powered by a developed version of the 3.2-litre twin-turbocharged V8 from the Quattroporte IV, delivering explosive mid-range torque. The car is most famous for its distinctive LED 'boomerang' rear lights, which were a production first but ultimately led to the car's replacement in the US market due to safety regulations. It offers a more visceral, old-school turbocharged driving experience compared to the naturally aspirated 4200 GT that followed.

Maserati 3200 GT fun facts
- The 3200 GT was the first production car in the world to be fitted with LED taillights.
- Because the 'boomerang' LED lights did not meet US federal safety regulations, the car was never officially sold in the United States.
- The engine features two small IHI turbochargers designed to reduce lag, though the power delivery remains famously aggressive.
