The Maserati Mistral, introduced at the Turin Motor Show in 1963, marked a significant departure for the Modenese manufacturer. Penned by Frua, its clean, elegant lines represented a fresh aesthetic compared to the more ornate designs of its predecessors, setting a new design language for Maserati that would influence models for years to come. Named after a cold northerly wind of France, the Mistral was initially offered as a coupe, with the Spyder variant, a truly exclusive offering, following in 1964. Only 125 Spyder examples were ever produced, making it one of the rarest open-top Maseratis of its era and a highly coveted prize for collectors worldwide. It was also notable as one of the last Maseratis to use the brand's iconic straight-six engine, a direct descendant of the legendary 250F Grand Prix car's powerplant. This exceedingly rare 1964 Maserati Mistral 3.5 Spyder, chassis number 25284, is a matching-numbers example that has undergone a comprehensive, concours-level restoration. Showing 0 miles since its meticulous refurbishment, this stunning convertible presents in its original, elegant dark blue exterior, perfectly complemented by a magnificent light brown leather interior. This particular Mistral Spyder boasts the seldom-seen factory hardtop, a desirable original option that enhances its versatility and classic profile. Furthermore, it retains its original air-conditioning system and the factory-ordered passenger grab handle, underscoring its authenticity and attention to detail. This is a chance to acquire a meticulously restored example of Maserati's rare and beautiful open-top grand tourer.
