Frank Sinatra's 1970 Maserati Ghibli

[@KeenanStyles]

Holy crap! The history of previous owners of this car is amazing!

[@FerrarisOnline]

If only the cars could talk!

[@markhealey9409]

Beautiful car & interesting history! 😍😍 Great review!

[@SC-yx6wr]

Very nice vid. Following a two year search I bought a '72 SS (4.9 coupe) back in 2002 and restored it over ten years, and sold at auction in 2015. The first owner of my car was "Universal Studios Burbank". I remember twenty+ years ago seeing a Sinatra Ghibli being for sale for a while, and being in pretty rough shape. It was generally thought the ownership provenance did not justify the high cost for that example in the shape it was in (they are super expensive to restore - hand made tubular unibody) but parts were available through MIE. Nice to see it restored. Also, fellow rat-packer Sammy Davis had a fly yellow Ghibli 4.7 with an automatic. Many celebs at that time had Ghibli's, including Peter Sellers, George Harrison, Richard & Karen Carpenter, Henry Ford II, Wilt Chamberlain, Elvis Presley, to name a few.

[@TheEmpfindungsamkeit]

Ghibli's designer was Giorgetto Giugiaro, for Ghia coachwork; Daytona's designer was Leonardo Fioravanti, for Pininfarina. In any case, two masterpieces.

Girl keep rocking! Such to rockstar classic car content! Love your vids

[@albertseabra9226]

Fabulous, Magic Car. Formerly owned by Sinatra ? Wow!

[@jjefferyworboys8138]

My favourite Maserati, irrespective of value I prefer this to a Dayton and think the Ghibli is a better looking car. Enjoyed your review.

[@FerrarisOnline]

Driving it has a very similar feel to the daytona. Glad you enjoyed the review, thanks!

Frank Sinatra and a vintage Maserati Ghibli. Life doesn't get much better.

[@patrickb1982]

Thanks coleen always nice too listen to you

[@FerrarisOnline]

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video.

[@rodneymercerchannel]

Nice to see this classic featured. Fantastic work! 🙌💯

[@lukeskywalker1840]

The personal ride of "The Chairman of the Board." I'm not surprised he drove a classy vehicle like that. The guy was 100% class himself. Excellent presentation as always Colleen. Can you tell us where this was filmed?

[@hectorrivera2785]

Love you videos, if looks like the Daytona, beautiful design and the condition of the car is just amazing. Thanks for the video!

[@swedishmansion8262]

It´s the best car in the world..

[@energyasylum997]

What a cool list of previous owners!!

[@ciscovip1]

Like what you are doing with the way you deliver the information. I am not a big Ferrari fan but have learned a lot from you. I am a subscriber now. You are on to something with your approach.

[@FerrarisOnline]

Thanks!

[@FstopPicturesByAlunDavies]

I miss my 77. Fiat 124 spider

[@sw651]

I had a 1973, a lot of fun

[@Marie579]

You know your stuff gal.

[@pauldavies9464]

Great video very well presented with a nice relaxing style,I saw a Ghibli drive slowly past me and the V8 sounds awesome and in the same month I saw a Muira this was back the 70s and to be honest I prefer the Ghibli .

[@mohamedbenferha3665]

i'm very very very jealous Claude François had a Ghibli too , you can see a maserati on moovie la Piscine with Delon and Romy Scneider

[@thomasheitmann1804]

Super Presentation Maserati Ghibli and Maserati Merak my favorits 🔱

[@andybroer651]

Just a comment on reliability, I have an 1986 Maserati QPIII with the 4.9L V8 and it has been bullet proof. The 4.2, 4.7 and 4.9L motors have always been very reliable and anyone that tells you otherwise hasn't owned them or didn't care for them properly. Maserati won races by finishing! Keep that in mind. Anyone that bashed them inquire which model they owned, and that usually shuts them up pretty quickly. The N/A V8s were very reliable and powerful cars. That's been my experience. The biggest problem I have had is with mechanics.

[@samuelseager6785]

It is currently for sale at Ferrari of Salt Lake City.

[@sollows44]

RE: Adjustable steering column not available in that period. I had experience with a '67 Plymouth Fury that had wide ranging tilt and telescope adjustment. I think it might have been standard equipment.

[@cornishrider]

Wow just needs the period Alloys. Great video!

[@upsidedowndog1256]

Wow, there is a new one in my town in AR. I had no Idea it was called a Ghibli and only figured it it wasn't a Tesla by the trident grill. Reminds me of a long Intrepid! That example is quite nice, great presentation.

[@zerocool82x]

Nice shifting👍👍👍

[@johnbutler4235]

Coleen does a PERFECT job, your videos make my day

[@FerrarisOnline]

Thank you, glad you are enjoying them. We will be making many more. 😁

[@InTheNow2020]

Nicely done video. I am reminded about these famous collector cars, that you really don't ever own it (if you should be so lucky) but you merely a temporary custodian of it.

[@dylanrc2994]

What are these rear lights?

[@gabef2760]

Is this car for sale? Thanks

[@FerrarisOnline]

Yes it is, feel free to send us and email at [e-mail]

you cacn view this car on our website at ferraris-online.com/cars/1970-maserati-ghibli-coupe-1564/

[@Coolbeans1492]

The ghiblis engine was larger and heavier than the daytonas.. what made the steering light was the power assistance that the daytona never had but the gtc did. Maseratis were more expensive than ferraris back then for a rzn. They made more luxurious cars that were really made for long distances not race cars on the street. Youll notice these are not small on rail handling sports cars.. these are long low wide track cars that are quite large bc these were made to blast through an open road and not a small tight mountain pass. Handling on these is vague and its either a fast 2 lane road with long sweeping bends or highways. By comparison a daytona is a track refugee forced to live on the street.

[@Giancarlo-di2jm]

I understand it's a regular 4.7 litres Ghibli, not a 4.9 Ghibli SS. Is it? I know that Blue Eyes also had a Lamborghini P400 Miura. In the past I had the opportunity to drive several new Maserati. My favorite was the Ferrari V8 4.7 powered Granturismo S. At that time (2009) there was a strong cooperation between the two former rivals Modenese brands and Maserati used Ferrari engines. Nowadays Maserati is part of Stellantis Group, such as Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Citroen, Fiat, Opel, Peugeot, Alfa Romeo etc. And yes, the new Ghibli saloon a complete different car. The old one is better.

[@timgosling6189]

Do you mean the 'famous' GT40? Wiki: "infamous" - well known for some bad quality or deed. eg "an infamous war criminal". Although Enzo might have regarded the GT40 as infamous, we look at it as a triumph of Ford money and English expertise.

[@Tophet1]

That's what you want under you, a chassis that won't break.

[@lucaraneri8439]

Very dice the car and very nice the girl

[@sdc8547]

He had good taste. (We'll ignore the nylon toupees)

[@Bojanmarsetic]

i guess the car is 'in tune'

[@johnvega2528]

Does she even know she’s sitting in a million dollar car

[@FerrarisOnline]

Well considering she sold it... pretty sure she knows what its worth.😁

[@mrporsche4236]

Now thats a car and thats a woman

[@RandyJM21]

Wow , 1970 Maserati accelerates like a 2019 Hyundai Gt N line with a 1.6t . I wonder if the quoted 0-60 is partially because of garbage 60s 70s crappy / thin tires from factory and with modern wheels and tires if it would get to 60 closer to 5 seconds . Many big block muscle cars ran 0-60 at a similar quote being so traction limited . 0-60 I under 7 seconds is just on the threshold of feeling powerful and " fast" even if not like a Tesla or something from Sweeden with a Ghost logo on it .

[@heavenstomurgatroyd7033]

Maserati means "large heavy Imoveable piece of art" in Italian...........

[@byronalien]

Sorry, Colleen. Although you are an accomplished presenter, I could not look at that auto without reflecting on (and smiling at) the classic Jeremy Clarkson appraisal of the Biturbo (where the awful thing gets smashed to bits at the opening of the show). Nice drone shots of southern Cali.

[@jjefferyworboys8138]

More elegant car than a Daytona. I like originality, just can't recreate it.

[@josephjewellers]

design looks like American muscle car

[@batuksri]

“Top speed of 155 miles per hour”. Joe Walsh’s Maserati is faster.

[@dragonarms77]

Maserati Khamsin IS MORE BEAUTIFUL

[@bngr_bngr]

The car sounds horrible. Hopefully that’s not the way it’s supposed to sound ;)

[@FerrarisOnline]

The mic was tapping on the license plate. If that is what you are reffering to. We have the be careful how we mount our equipment on these cars as we do not want to damage them in any way.

[@bigdaddy934]

I had one of these and I had the factory option ANSA quad tip exhaust installed and it sounded fantastic! Stock sounds good, too, but the one I had was amazing!

[@bngr_bngr]

Ferraris Online I'm a glad to hear that. Suction cup mic holders work for record exhaust with damaging the car. Gaffer tape also work with it leaving residue on the paint.

[@YOLOnyc]

@@bngr_bngr I would never apply gaffers tape to a classic car, painters tape from a high quality brand like Scotch or FrogTape is much safer for the car's finish.

[@bngr_bngr]

✔️ YOLO NYC by Eric David (watch my channel!) gaffer tape doesn't leave a residue. You must be thinking of duck tape. Painter tape dry if left on to long would never secure a rig with paint tape.

[@solomongrundy1618]

Old blue eyes had taste I'll give him that

[@DavidM-mb1vx]

This girly girl lost me when she crapped on the modern Ghibli. Stick to ironing shirts.

[@FerrarisOnline]

All im reading is you got your feelings hurt so you resulted to sexist insults. Mature.

[@redmr2na]

Seriously, I'm with Colleen here. As a true Car Enthusiast I'm pissed off they dared call the modern car the Ghibli at all. The modern cars are merely a pile of shoddy built, terribly assembled Stalantis BS parts.

[@DavidM-mb1vx]

@@redmr2na have you owned one? Driven one? They’re not shoddy. They’re actually quite attractive, and fast. They sound glorious. A buddy of mine works at a Alfa Maserati dealership. I see, touch, drive these all the time. The QP as well.

[@DavidM-mb1vx]

@@FerrarisOnline I don’t have feelings. I don’t care what someone else thinks frankly. Just because the original was a badass coupe GT and the new one is a very sexy 4 door, why crap on it? No one buys coupes. In fact now no one buys sedans. Just SUVs. Perhaps I went overboard with the iron comment but….
