Maserati Indy
Introduced in 1969, the Indy was aimed at customers who wanted ultimate comfort and space. It was imperative to have more room and better equipment than the Ghibli. Under the hood was a V8 engine ranging from 4.2 to 4.9-liter in size. It got its name after Maserati’s two victories at the 500 Miles of Indianapolis in 1939 and 1940, which added a sense of prestige and history to the car’s name (via Maserati).
The Maserati’s desire for a luxury car with space for four occupants resulted in hefty weight compared to other models. However, Indy could still cruise at high speed, providing its passengers with remarkable comfort and stability. The prices for excellent examples are high but not astronomical.
