Maserati A6G 2000: Frua, Pininfarina, Vignale, Allemano

By Walter Bäumer

Based on the first Maserati GT, the A6-1500, the Modena-based company offered its customers the second series, the A6G 2000, from 1951. After the more competitive version with the lightweight Zagato body, wealthy customers could choose between four design versions: the bulky design by Pininfarina, the muscular one from Allemano, the glamorous Coupés and Spyder versions by Frua and the eccentric Coupé by Vignale. All vehicles were slightly different and were among the rarest and most expensive cars of their time. The A6G 2000 was a landmark in Maserati history. This book describes for the first time the technical development of this type as well as the individual history of all cars in these four versions, chassis by chassis.

Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Calgary, AB Canada  
Interesting subject matter. Could use more photos of the subject cars, either contemporary or present day. Needed more careful proofreading; problems with dates and some omitted data making following the history occasionally difficult. Otherwise I enjoyed it.

Reviewer: G.G. Paul Hindle from Preston, Lancashire England  
An excellent book but a shame that current photos of existing cars were not commissioned and included. Then the book would have been perfect. Nonetheless it is an excellent addition to any serious motoring library.
