Maserati Mostro Barchetta Zagato (1 of 5).
Any Zagato has always been something extraordinary and has been so now for over 100 years, that the company has been in existence. The Zagato Mostro is no exception. The first Mostro to be introduced to the world was the Gullwing Coupe version, and no better way to reveal such a beauty than at Villa d’Este Concours d’Elegance in 2015 under 250 km away from the factory where the soul and spirit of the Mostro was brought to life, to the celebration the 100th anniversary of Maserati. Seven years would pass by before the presentation of the roofless version of the Coupe version, the Zagato Mostro Barchetta as it was given by name . This hyper exclusive car was limited to a production run of only five cars, of which all were sold. The Mostro coupe was made as a tribute to the Maserati 450 S which the late great racingdriver Juan Manuel Fangio drove in 1956 race in Buenos Aires. This very powerful race car had had been redesigned in 1957 by British designer Frank Costin to much more aerodynamic principles, and then hand built in Milan by Zagato. It was to be raced by Sir Stirling Moss in the 1957 24 Hours of Le Mans, which Sir Stirling then dubbed that car ¨The Monster¨, as the more aerodynamic lines were not conventionally more pretty. In this sense the Zagato Mostro Barchetta is truer in its nature as the original race car was a roofless car also. To keep the spirit as close to a race car as possible Zagato decided to use a genuine racing car chassis.
Therefore, underneath the lovely design from Norihiko Harada there lies a lightweight chassis built by Gillet. Gillet has been around since the start of the 1990´s, and is most known for building lightweight chassis, made from carbon fibre and formula 1 inspired materials. The Zagato Mostro Barchetta is not only incredibly successful in terms of design, but a true masterpiece of automotive engineering too. This is the type of a stunning supercar you can only achieve with a collaboration between two legendary Italian brands - Maserati and Zagato. The engineering performance of this car is not to be overlooked, as under the elegant bonnet of the Zagato Mostro Barchetta lays pure music to your ears: a 4.2-liter V8 Maserati engine that delivers a 420 BHP to the rear wheels via a manual sequential six-speed gearbox. When entering the Zagato Mostro Barchetta the driver is meet with a luxurious and comfortable environment with a spectacular combination of carbon fibre and aluminium. To sum up the Zagato Mostro Barchetta it is a modern masterpiece of automotive haute couture, with each one of the only five produced being hand-built to showcases the exquisite attention to detail and craftsmanship. It is not all about looks either as the Mostro not only offers great performance but also the now rare satisfaction of selecting the gears manually and enjoying the Maserati V8’s bark with each gearchange. Surely the Mostro with all its history and spectacular looks is a great collector’s car, that is also a very engaging drive.
