Mostro Barchetta Zagato Powered by Maserati is the continuation of a long partnership with the Trident’s Home, started in 1931 with the model Maserati 8C 2500 Sport Zagato and, after ten prestigious realizations, followed in 1957 when the Italian Atelier realized the Maserati 450S Coupé Zagato. The special version, originally named “The Monster”, has been requested by Stirling Moss and constructed together with the precious support of the aeronautic specialist Frank Costin, to participate at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the most important Worldwide Championship of endurance.
“We decided the name of the project inspired by Sir Stirling Moss’s first reaction, who said: “Beautiful like a Monster” when he first saw the Maserati Coupé. It is the oxymoron itself which well expresses the union between the brutal powering and the philosophy of beauty,” said Andrea Zagato – Zagato’s President.
