Giorgetto Giugiaro designed it while he was at Ghia.One of the most beautiful cars ever, and one that still looks great on the road - 40 years after its design
Cars have progressed in those 40 years, of course. Until the SS model was released in 1969, this high-performance supercar of its day was slower (0-60 in 6.8 seconds; 155 mph top end) that a BMW 328i is today. https://youtu.be/9ayyndauWRc
The SS could reach 174 mph, impressive for the late '60s indeed. Only 25 were made. If you want one, they are available for a cool USD $1.225.000. http://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/dealer/maserati/ghibli/1873805.html
