The Ghibli debuted at the 1966 Turin Motor Show featuring steel bodywork styled by Giorgetto Giugiaro during his time with Carrozzeria Ghia. This example was delivered from the factory in Rame Metallizzato and received bodywork before it underwent a color change to its current metallic blue in 2007. Equipment includes pop-up headlights with round-edge covers, dual hood vents, fender vents, a retractable antenna, and dual locking fuel doors.

The Ghibli debuted at the 1966 Turin Motor Show featuring steel bodywork styled by Giorgetto Giugiaro during his time with Carrozzeria Ghia. This example was delivered from the factory in Rame Metallizzato and received bodywork before it underwent a color change to its current metallic blue in 2007. Equipment includes pop-up headlights with round-edge covers, dual hood vents, fender vents, a retractable antenna, and dual locking fuel doors.
The 15″ Campagnolo cast alloy wheels wear chrome hubcaps and are mounted with 215/70 Michelin XWX tires showing 2021 date codes. A matching spare wheel and tire are stowed beneath the rear cargo floor. The suspension was reportedly overhauled during the 2000s refurbishment, and it incorporates a coil-sprung double-wishbone front setup and a leaf-sprung solid rear axle with telescopic shock absorbers and anti-roll bars at each end. The car is equipped with power-assisted steering as well as power-assisted four-wheel ventilated discs at each corner.
The cockpit features bucket seats that were retrimmed in light beige leather during the 2000s refurbishment. A matching headliner, lower dashpad, and door panels are fitted while dark blue carpets with white piping line the floors. Equipment includes power windows, air conditioning, and a heated rear window. A Becker Mexico Classic Bluetooth stereo was installed in 2022 and is connected to Infinity speakers, and the air-conditioning system was also reportedly recharged at that time.
The wood-rimmed steering wheel is mounted on an adjustable column ahead of Veglia Borletti instrumentation including an 8k-rpm tachometer, a 300-km/h speedometer, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows under 79k kilometers (~49k miles). Total mileage is unknown.
The SS variant’s 4.9-liter V8 is a higher-displacement evolution of the standard Ghibli’s powerplant and was factory rated at 335 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 355 lb-ft of torque at 4k rpm. Features include an aluminum block and cylinder heads, dual overhead camshafts on each cylinder bank, dry-sump lubrication, and quadruple Weber 42 DCNF carburetors. A replacement battery and spark plugs have reportedly been installed since 2022.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a ZF five-speed manual transmission. A replacement stainless steel exhaust system, headers, and hangers have been installed since 2022.
