📜History:
This Maserati Mexico is a unique prototype created by Carrozzeria Frua. Presented as a world premiere on the coachbuilder's stand at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1968, it embodies stylist Pietro Frua's most elegant vision, notably evoking the lines of the legendary 5000 GT belonging to the Aga Khan. After being displayed as an exhibition model at Frua, it returned to the Maserati workshops to be mechanically finalised
Delivered new in March 1970 to the Spanish importer Auto Paris, based in Barcelona. The car remained in Spain for 50 years in the hands of two owners, including a Catalan collector who kept it for 33 years.
In 2013, it joined a major Belgian collection and then benefited from a
complete restoration: The bodywork was fully restored by the Philippe Vilain workshop in Brussels, while the mechanics were handled by a marque specialist.
The current owner bought it from Bonhams in 2015 and has continued to carefully maintain this unique example.
Extremely rare for a prototype, the burgundy leather interior is entirely original and superbly preserved. It features an authentic patina, with its specific instruments and horizontal clock between the front seats
