1976 Maserati Merak SS

Unveiled in 1974 and produced until 1982, the Maserati Merak is regarded as a light variant of Maserati Bora, equipped with smaller engines and with less advanced parts. Being built during the Citroen patronage, the Merak incorporated multiple features also installed on Citroen models, including the 3.0-liter engine, the dashboard and the hydraulic brake system, all of them used by Citroen SM. Similar to its bigger brother, the Merak came with a mid-mounted engine but packed the same bodyshell. The Merak came with a choice of three engines, a 2.0 V6, a 3.0 V6 and the sporty 3.0 V6 SS, which produced 160, 190 and 210 horsepower respectively.
