Design icon for sale: Maserati Boomerang

On September 5, the Bonhams auction house will put on sale one of the icons of automotive design of the early 70s, the Maserati Boomerang. The estimated price of this unique prototype dressed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and equipped with a V8 engine has been determined between 3 and 4 million euros… Make a game gentlemen!

El maserati boomerang It was presented in 1971 at the Turin Motor Show and then its angular lines walked through the Geneva one. As we have just said, it is a fully operational prototype thanks to its mechanics tridentine 300 hp capable of launching it at 300 km / h. Developed on the chassis of the Maserati Bora, in its day it was registered as a car and not as showcar; I wonder if it will be possible to enroll it, it would be great ...

Obviously, its lines would influence the designs of many production cars and especially those drawn up by the Master Giugiaro, as is the case with the Golf MKI, the DeLorean DMC-12 or the Lotus Esprit. Anyway, a prototype of this draft and characteristics is not auctioned every day and I couldn't help showing it to you with these colorful photos.

It will go on sale next September 5 during the Chantilly Elegance Contest, event whose quality approaches year after year to that of Villa d'Este and to which, incidentally, we will go to be able to tell you first-hand. Bursts!

What do you think?
