One of the most remarkable aspects of this particular example is its unique history and provenance. Carrozzeria Allemano, a renowned Italian coachbuilder, was responsible for crafting the bodywork of 22 vehicles.

In total, only 34 examples of the Maserati 5000GT Coupe were ever made, making it a highly sought-after and exclusive collector's item.
The Maserati 5000GT was originally conceived as a bespoke creation for the Shah of Iran. In a bold move to attract affluent buyers, Omar Orsi, son of Maserati owner Adolfo Orsi, personally reached out to potential clients with sales brochures showcasing the 3500GT and the 450S models. The Shah of Iran, intrigued by the Maserati brand, requested a meeting with the company's management after test-driving a 3500GT. Impressed by the car's usability and power, the Shah commissioned Giulio Alfieri to create a road car that combined the best of both models. To bring this vision to life, Carrozzeria Touring was selected to craft the body of the 5000GT Coupe, with chief designer Carlo Anderloni drawing inspiration from Persian Baroque architecture. The result is a masterpiece of automotive design, with a distinctive grille and interior that reflect the opulence and sophistication of the era.
This particular example boasts a formidable 4, 941cc DOHC V8 engine with Lucas mechanical fuel injection, delivering 325bhp at 3, 600rpm. Paired with a smooth 5-speed ZF manual transmission, this powerhouse of a car offers a thrilling driving experience that is sure to captivate any automotive connoisseur.
