Selling or Buying a 1981 Maserati Merak?

The Maserati Merak saw many evolutions throughout its production run, thanks to evolving engineering and change of ownership from Citroen to De Tomaso in the mid 1970s. As a result of this shift of ownership, conventional brakes and a ZF transaxle were substituted, as well as a new dashboard inspired by the one from the Maserati Bora. Wider wheels and tires were also fitted, which improved the handling of the car. Along with a better high-speed stability, performance increased with a boosted horsepower190 to 220 hp. A more powerful variant was introduced in 1976 as the SS, and a 2-liter model followed in 1977 but was only produced for the Italian market in very low numbers.
