1973 | Maserati Bora 4900

Registration number: MA-94-82


*A Maserati That Blends Character and Comfort
*
A true Italian GT with a mid-engine layout, breathtaking Giugiaro design and engineering that impresses even today. That, in essence, is the Maserati Bora. Delivered in 1973, this example is one of only 275 ever built in the sought-after 4.9-liter version. What you see here is a Maserati with heritage and substance.

It comes from a private Belgian collection, fully restored, mechanically overhauled and accompanied by a thick binder of documentation, including official Maserati Classiche build sheets and certificates.


*Rosso Fuoco
*
The body is finished in the striking Rosso Fuoco, a deep, fiery red that gleams in the light. Everything is in harmony here: precise panel fitment, clean lines, and smooth metalwork. The original wheels complete the authentic 1970s aesthetic.

Inside, a beige leather interior typical of the era: wide, low-slung seats with sculpted contours, fine materials and a dashboard that feels more like a cockpit than a conventional cabin. The smell, the leather, the gauges—every detail captures the essence of its time.

And then there are the touches that make it personal. In the documentation, you’ll even find an old letter from the Maserati Club dating back to the 1980s. Pure automotive nostalgia.


*Engineering with Edge
*
The 4.9-liter V8 was originally developed for Maserati’s legendary Birdcage Tipo 63–65 race cars. In this configuration, it delivers an impressive 320 horsepower, pushing the car to a top speed of around 174 mph. Acceleration to 60 mph? Just about seven seconds, and all in a car that can just as easily cruise down to the south of France in style and comfort.

With fully independent suspension, a rigid tubular frame and a ZF five-speed manual gearbox, the Bora offers balance and composure. Add in Maserati’s signature suspension tuning and the Citroën-sourced hydraulics, and you get a supercar that was truly ahead of its time. Electrically adjustable pedals, power seat sliders, and a ride quieter than most Ferraris or Porsches of the day.


*Quiet Confidence
*
The Maserati Bora isn’t the kind of supercar that shouts. It whispers, but with unmistakable confidence. From behind the wheel, you can sense it immediately: this is a car built by engineers who dared to dream.

A Bora in this condition, with this engine, this color combination and such thorough documentation is an exceptionally rare find. It’s a reminder of when Maserati led the pack, not followed it.
