The Maserati Mistral is one of the great grand tourers of the 1960s, blending Italian elegance with genuine long-distance performance. Introduced in 1963 and produced in both coupé and spyder form, it was the last Maserati road car powered by the marque’s famous twin-cam straight-six, an engine family with roots in the company’s 1950s racing success. With fuel injection, disc brakes, a five-speed gearbox and a beautifully balanced chassis, the Mistral was built for fast, refined continental travel rather than raw aggression.

Styled by Pietro Frua, the Mistral featured a glassy cabin, long bonnet and clean, understated lines that still look sophisticated today. Its name came from a strong wind that blows through southern France, beginning Maserati’s tradition of wind-inspired model names such as Ghibli, Bora and Khamsin. Fewer than 1,000 examples were made, making it a highly desirable classic among collectors who appreciate rarity, craftsmanship and mechanical heritage.
