I have a 1960 edition of the Observer's Book of Automobiles given to me by my maternal uncle when I was a child. Amongst the many other delights of that era - Abarth, Facel Vega, Bristol, AC come to mind - the 5000 GT was always my favorite. Sigh.

Yeah, you're right. It's probably my favorite car of all time.

Sigh.

Heh, you reminded me of a Clarkson quote.

I don't know Maseratis well, but that top one is...

Thank you for that video, Huntsman. I endorse what was done to the Biturbo. Seems like I have a kindred spirit in Clarkson. After the Bora it was all downhill. BTW, the only other car in the book that could vie with the 5000GT for my attention was the BMW 507.

Was there ever fitted luggage made for this car?

That would be simply outstanding.
