50-year Anniversary Of The Maserati Boomerang

Avatar photoReggie

On March 9, 1972, the Maserati Boomerang was first introduced at the Geneva Motor Show. It demanded attention. It was futuristic and extreme, illogical but stunning. It was the embodiment of the dream car we never knew we wanted. It was a concept car borne from Giorgetto Giugiaro’s expertise and created by Italdesign.

Maserati Boomerang was a mockup which made a shot appearance at the 1971 Turin Motor Show. They only made one model, and it was the same one that they presented at the Swiss event in 1972 as a registered vehicle which ran perfectly.
