Maserati Ghibli GT (1996)

2.0L Twin-Turbo V6 · 6-Speed Manual · Blu Sera over Beige · Fully Serviced

The Ghibli GT Experience

The Maserati Ghibli GT represents one of the most charismatic and underrated performance cars of the 1990s—combining compact dimensions, twin-turbocharged performance, and unmistakable Italian character.

Developed under the Biturbo lineage but significantly refined, the Ghibli GT delivers a far more focused and mature driving experience. Its 2.0-litre twin-turbocharged V6, producing an impressive 303 horsepower, makes it one of the most powerful engines per litre of its era—particularly in its Italian-market configuration.

Paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox, the Ghibli GT offers a highly engaging and analog driving experience: responsive, lively, and full of character, with strong turbocharged acceleration and a distinctive Maserati soundtrack.

Model Context & Positioning

Introduced in the early 1990s, the Ghibli marked Maserati’s transition toward a more modern and refined product while retaining its traditional performance DNA.

Key characteristics include:

• Evolution of the Biturbo platform, with improved chassis dynamics

• Compact, lightweight configuration compared to contemporary GT cars

• High-output twin-turbo V6 engines

• Strong motorsport and performance pedigree

The 2.0-litre version, developed specifically for the Italian market due to taxation laws, is notable for:

• Exceptional specific output (over 150 hp per litre)

• Sharper, more rev-focused character compared to larger-displacement versions

Today, the Ghibli GT is increasingly appreciated as:

• One of the last compact, analogue Maserati performance cars

• A highly usable modern classic

• A model with growing enthusiast recognition
