I've never heard of this model, but it's neat looking. Does anyone know anything about them?

The Merak is cool. In fact, Clarkson bought one for one of the Top Gear challengey episodes..

...and proved that you cannot buy a supercar for less than 5000 pounds sterling.
It's the 6cyl version (sharing a motor with the Citroen SM), the Bora being the V8, and its not really all that fast, but it looks great. They are VERY expensive to fix should something break. Most modern Maseratis are not all that popular, though some such as this one are known to be more comfortable drivers than say an equivalent Ferrari. Other than showing off the neighbors, you could pick up something like a 911, M3 or MR2 Turbo and run rings around it for a lot less money in the long run.
Of course it is great to look at sitting in the garage!
Flying butresses FTW.
I think I have a couple of sportscar books that have the Merak listed.
Sweet 70's oddity.
