2016 Maserati Ghibli S - Silver - 60,445km - 3.0L Turbo V6, Automatic (Repaired Write-Off)
Overview
The Maserati Ghibli S represents the Italian marque's entry into the compact luxury sedan segment, combining Trident heritage with accessible performance and everyday usability. The M157 generation Ghibli S, introduced in 2013 and refined through 2016, pairs a turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 engine with an 8-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel-drive dynamics, delivering 257kW of power and 500Nm of torque. This particular example, finished in silver, presents as a compelling proposition for buyers seeking Maserati ownership at a realistic entry point. The Ghibli S sits between the base Ghibli and the more powerful Ghibli SQ4, offering a genuine balance of performance, luxury appointments, and Italian design language without the complexity of all-wheel-drive systems.
This 2016 example displays the characteristic Maserati design language with its distinctive grille, sculpted bodywork, and proportioned sedan profile. The silver metallic finish presents well across the visible panels, with the paint holding good gloss and colour consistency. The four-door configuration provides practical access, whilst the five-seat interior layout offers genuine usability for daily driving or weekend touring. At 60,445 kilometres, this is a relatively low-mileage example for the model year, suggesting measured use rather than high-intensity driving. The rear-wheel-drive platform delivers the dynamic handling Maserati is known for, whilst the automatic transmission provides the refinement and convenience expected in this segment.
The Ghibli S occupies a unique position in the luxury sedan market. New, this model carried an RRP in the region of AUD $180,000 to $200,000 depending on specification and options. In the current market, comparable 2015-2017 Ghibli examples with similar mileage typically range from AUD $45,000 to $65,000 depending on condition and service history. This example, offered as a repairable write-off, presents an opportunity for buyers with mechanical knowledge, panel-beating contacts, or access to specialist repair facilities to acquire a genuine Italian luxury sedan at a significant discount to market value. The Ghibli S remains a desirable proposition for Maserati enthusiasts and those seeking distinctive European performance.
Condition
Exterior presentation is clean and straight. The silver paint displays consistent colour across all visible panels with minor stone chipping evident on the bonnet leading edge, consistent with normal highway use. Panel gaps appear even and body lines are straight with no obvious dents or creases visible. The alloy wheels present well with minimal kerb marking, and tyres appear to have reasonable tread depth remaining. The vehicle's overall external presentation suggests careful ownership and measured use.
The interior is appointed in black leather with contrasting red stitching detail, presenting a purposeful and sporty aesthetic. The leather seats show light wear consistent with the vehicle's mileage, with no obvious tears or significant bolster damage visible. The dashboard is clean and free from cracks or damage. The instrument cluster displays the odometer reading of 60,445 kilometres. The Ghibli infotainment system is visible with a touchscreen interface, and climate control is present. The steering wheel is leather-wrapped with red stitching detail, and the overall cabin ambience reflects the luxury positioning of the model. The five-seat configuration provides genuine accommodation for driver and four passengers.
The engine bay presents cleanly with the 3.0-litre turbocharged V6 engine clearly visible. Engine cover badging confirms the V6 configuration. Fluid levels appear appropriate and the bay shows no obvious signs of major leakage or neglect. The turbocharger installation is standard Maserati specification. The 8-speed automatic transmission is the factory unit for this model.
