The 3500 GT is the first grand touring model produced in series by Maserati. Although initially offered as a Coupé, requests for a Spyder version quickly followed. Carrozzeria Touring proposed a Cabriolet version, produced in just three examples in 1958. Maserati then turned to Turin-based Carrozzeria Vignale, where renowned stylist Giovanni Michelotti created several proposals with subtle design variations.

This exceptional 3500 Spyder Vignale, is the second of four prototypes developed at the end of 1959. It was finished in Argento Metallizzato over Pelle Rossa interiors with cream piping and dark blue carpets.

In 1959, the car was displayed on the Maserati stand at the 41st Turin Motor Show before being sold in Miami. It underwent a first restoration in Modena between 1990 and 1994. In 2023, it joined the collection of an American collector known for meticulous research and dedication to authenticity, who commissioned a comprehensive second restoration by Modena-based specialists of the model.

Presented at Anantara Concorso Roma 2026 in its first public appearance since this latest restoration, the Maserati 3500 Spyder Vignale was awarded Winner Class X – Le Spyder di Viale Ciro Menotti, celebrating one of the most elegant and historically significant open-top Maseratis ever created

Some collect cars. Others collect moments.

Golden light across Roman piazzas. The sound of an Italian engine echoing through historic streets. Conversations that stretch long into the evening.

Anantara Concorso Roma is an invitation into a world where beauty, culture, and automotive excellence exist in perfect harmony.

Winner of CLASSE IV – LE COUPÉ DEL PRIMO DOPO-GUERRA, this 1949 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 SS embodies the timeless beauty of Italy’s post-war automotive design.

Derived from the Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Sport with a shortened chassis and three carburettors, the 6C 2500 SS represented one of the most desirable Alfa Romeo platforms of its era – blending elegance, innovation and performance.

This particular example is a unique one-off created by Pinin Farina for Giovanni San Giorgio Gualtieri of Catania and is believed to be the first car ever designed with the distinctive twin headlamp configuration.

Its influence would later extend far beyond Alfa Romeo, helping shape the design language of the legendary Lancia Aurelia B20, widely regarded as the first Italian Gran Turismo.

A remarkable example of post-war Italian craftsmanship and vision.

On 3 June 1954, Robert Wilkie wrote directly to Enzo Ferrari requesting a road-homologated racing car.

Ferrari supplied the chassis and engine of a 375 MM, while Carrozzeria Ghia was commissioned to create the bodywork. The final 375 MM ever built - and the last Ferrari clothed by Ghia.

Overseen by Luigi Segre, the project evolved through sketches, revisions and a distinctive two-tone paint scheme, resulting in one of the most unique early Ferrari grand tourers ever created.

Presented at the 1955 Turin Motor Show, the car later returned to Ferrari for final finishing before being shipped to New York aboard the transatlantic liner Andrea Doria.

Following a meticulous multi-year restoration, the car was honoured with the distinction of CLASSE VII - LE PRIME GRANTURISMO DI MODENA at Anantara Concorso Roma, further cementing its place among the most celebrated Ferraris of its era.

Winner of CLASSE V – LE BARCHETTE FERRARI, this 1951 Ferrari 340 America Barchetta by Carrozzeria Touring stands among the most significant early competition Ferraris of its era.

Delivered in June 1951 to Pierre Louis-Dreyfus, a decorated WWII veteran, chassis 0116 A was immediately entered into that year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans before returning again in 1952. Though it failed to finish on both occasions, the car quickly established its reputation for remarkable pace and endurance.

A few years later, the car was acquired by Pierre Bardinon, becoming part of one of Europe’s most important Ferrari collections, before undergoing a restoration focused on preserving its original configuration and historical identity.

The car would later return to Italy, participating in numerous editions of the Mille Miglia and continuing to build its legacy within the world of historic motorsport.

A remarkable Ferrari whose racing spirit and provenance continue to resonate decades later.

At Anantara Concorso Roma, the Alfa Romeo 6C 2300 Gran Turismo Pescara Spider, chassis 700635, was awarded first in class at CLASSE III – LE ALFA 6C 2300.

One of only two examples built, this remarkable automobile boasts an extraordinary history. The engine was prepared by Scuderia Ferrari at the request of the first owner, while the bodywork by Carrozzeria Touring underwent numerous modifications to its lines and configuration for both aesthetic and functional purposes.

Upon delivery, the car was admired for its beauty, although a rear seat was later requested, leading Touring to carry out further work over approximately ten days.

The car was subsequently entered in the Mille Miglia by Scuderia Parioli, where Ercole Boratto achieved a prestigious third place in class.

Hidden during the Second World War and rediscovered in the late 1960s, the car was later restored by Dr Luigi Fittipaldi. In the mid-1990s it was acquired by Giuseppe Calgaro, who commissioned a new restoration by Dino Cognolato. Since then, it has undergone a third conservative intervention, including the application of a special nitrocellulose paint formulated to reproduce the original finish.

The arrival was part of the ritual.

As engines fell silent in the heart of Rome, extraordinary masterpieces of Italian design made their entrance in Piazza della Repubblica. Carefully unloaded beneath the timeless elegance of the Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome Hotel, every curve, reflection and mechanical detail were slowly unveiled.

Moments that marked the beginning of Anantara Concorso Roma.

The 1933 Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Cabriolet is a true masterpiece from one of motoring’s most celebrated eras; conceived by the legendary Vittorio Jano for Alfa Romeo.

This third-series example is one of just 89 built in 1933 on the “long” chassis, featuring beautifully crafted open coachwork by Carrozzeria Castagna, one of only eight such bodies completed by the firm, each commissioned to individual specification.

A remarkably preserved example of Alfa Romeo’s pre-war excellence, this extraordinary 8C was awarded Winner of Classe II – Le 8C Alfa at Anantara Concorso Roma.

Roma calls once again.

The next chapter of Anantara Concorso Roma will take place in Rome from 1-4 April 2027.

The 1954 Fiat 8V Rapi Series 2 is a car that quietly redefined expectations of the Italian marque.
First registered in Rome, this example has returned to the city where it was originally delivered.

One of just 28 second-series cars designed by Fabio Rapi, and among only 63 Rapi-bodied examples, it is exceptionally rare. Having spent over six decades in the United States, it carries a rich transatlantic history.

Unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show as the “Otto Vù,” it remains the only V8 Fiat ever produced. Powered by a 2.0-litre V8 developed under Dante Giacosa, the 8V delivered remarkable performance for its era, capable of over 120 mph.

With period competition pedigree, including class success at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the 8V stands as one of the most unexpected and compelling performance cars of its time.
