01 / THE STORY

History & context

The Maserati Ghibli Campana is a rare, one-off variant of the iconic Maserati Ghibli, built by Carrozzeria Campana, a specialist Italian coachbuilder known for customizing and restoring Maserati models. This unique version features body panels made of glass fiber, a material choice that significantly reduces weight while maintaining strength and durability. Carrozzeria Campana, based in Modena, has a long history of working on Maseratis, often creating bespoke designs and offering aftermarket modifications for enthusiasts seeking exclusivity. With the Ghibli Campana, the company took an already striking grand tourer and reimagined it with lightweight bodywork, giving it a distinct appearance compared to the standard steel-bodied Ghibli models produced by Maserati between 1967 and 1973. What made this project even more remarkable was that Campana allowed customers to order individual glass fiber body parts separately as aftermarket components. This meant that Ghibli owners had the option to replace original panels with lighter alternatives, enhancing performance without compromising the car’s aesthetic. The extent of customization and modifications available from Campana ensured that this Ghibli variant stood apart from factory-built versions, adding a layer of exclusivity to an already rare classic.Today, this one-off Maserati Ghibli Campana resides in Japan, where it is part of a prestigious private collection. Japan has a well-established community of classic car collectors, particularly those with an appreciation for rare Italian exotics, making it a fitting home for such a special vehicle. The car’s presence in a private collection means that it is rarely seen in public, adding to its mystique and desirability among Maserati enthusiasts and collectors worldwide. As a one-of-a-kind creation, the Maserati Ghibli Campana represents a unique chapter in the history of Maserati coachbuilding, blending performance, craftsmanship, and exclusivity. It stands as a testament to the artistry of Carrozzeria Campana and their ability to reinterpret classic designs while maintaining the essence of what makes Maserati such an esteemed marque.
