As such, it replaced the Sebring on the production line receiving a 4.2 litre 90\u00b0 V8 in place of the earlier model\u2019s straight six. In a road test from the time, German magazine Auto Motor und Sport confirmed the Indy 4.2\u2019s top speed at 246.7 kph (154 mph).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Indy\u2019s styling was the brainchild of Giovanni Michelotti, working for Turin\u2019s Vignale coachworks, and was especially pleasing due to a smooth front nose incorporating pop-up headlights and ample windows providing an airy feeling to the cabin. Besides ensuring a low drag factor and superior stability at high speeds, the aerodynamic fastback rear also provided the benefit of a tailgate, making access to the spacious loading area all the more convenient.<\/p>\n<p>The Indy prototype was introduced at the 1968 Turin Motor Show, where it competed with another proposal by Ghia, the Sim\u00f9n (see under One-offs and Concept Cars). Although penned by Ghibli designer Giorgetto Giugiaro, the Sim\u00f9n was rejected in favour of Vignale\u2019s creation which made its debut in production trim at the following Geneva motor show, in March 1969.<\/p>\n<p>The most powerful version of the Indy boasted 320 hp which pushed its top speed to 265 kph (165 mph). Power steering became standard on this version, as did the air conditioning system. Customers could choose between two different settings for the gearbox, with the shorter geared version intended for maximum usability in traffic.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the Indy\u2019s tempting looks and efficient package in terms of comfort, performance and aerodynamics attracted 1,104 customers, including Walt Disney junior, gentleman driver\/journalist Giovanni Lurani and German soccer ace Paul Breitner. Just 300 cars were sold with the new 4.9 engine, of which the last 200 received a new hydraulic brake system courtesy of parent company Citro\u00ebn.<\/p>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n

\u20ac33,376\u00a0<\/strong>According to the factory, this car was rolled out of the factory in September 1969, and was sold new in Italy. The car is still faithful to the original in its current configuration, apart from its color which was not red but Argento Auteuil (silver grey). The car was found at the bottom of a garden where it was covered with a makeshift tarpaulin that did not quite stop time ravaging the body. The car needs to be restored if one wants to take it back on the road. The black leather interior though has been preserved quite well, so the restorer can retain the upholstery after treating the leather. This Indy is a full-ledged restoration project, but it would be worth restoring these magnificent Maserati from the 1970s as prices are soaring.<br \/>\n<b>Auction Source: <\/b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.supercars.net\/gallery\/119513\/3210\/1.html\">R\u00e9tromobile 2015 by Artcurial Motorcars<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n                <a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/9427991.jpg' class='tipi-lightbox'>\r\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/9427991.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"1969\u21921975 Maserati Indy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/9427991.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/9427991-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/9427991-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/9427991-770x514.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/9427991-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/9427991-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/9427991-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n            <\/div><\/figure>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.supercars.net\/Pics?viewCarPic=y&amp;source=carGal&amp;carID=1119&amp;pgID=1&amp;pID=942799\">1972 MASERATI INDY 4,7L TYPE AM110<\/a> &#8211; sold for \u20ac35,382\u00a0<\/strong>Our car is an Indy 4.7 from 1972, with power steering, manual five-speed gear-box, air-conditioning, sun-roof (rare), tinted windows, Becker radio and &#8216;America&#8217; dashboard.
