This 1960 Maserati 3500 GT Spyder Vignale Is A New Start [Petrolicious]

Cruising through the desert back roads just outside of Scottsdale, Arizona, behind the wheel of his gorgeous blue over red leather 1960 Maserati 3500 GT Spyder Vignale, Phillipe Reyns retells the history that lead Maserati to infuse their racing roots into production cars.

Originally focused solely on racing, like many automobile manufacturers Maserati was faced with serious financial limitations post-war. It was decided building production cars would greatly benefit its competition program.

“The history of the Maserati 3500 GT started, really, in 1957—the banner year for Maserati. They won the Formula One championship with the 250F, and then they had success with their sports racer, the S350.”

Maserati continued racing and the world benefitted from some of Italy’s most beautiful creations, the rest is history.
