Some cars leave a paper trail; the Maserati 250S left a name, a year — 1954 — and a place in Maserati's list. What follows is what can be said with a source behind it. Fantuzzi drew it.
Where it came from
The Maserati 250S, and its derivative and version, the 250 Sport, are sports racing cars, designed, developed and built by Italian car manufacturer Maserati, between 1954 and 1957. Only two models were produced.
In context
Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, the Chevrolet Corvette — show what else the money bought that year. Nearby in the Maserati catalogue sit the Maserati 150S and the Maserati 200S.
What it costs now
MotorJury scores cars on the United States complaint and recall record, and the Maserati 250S has none: too old, too rare, or never sold there. Its value today is a collector's question, decided by provenance and condition rather than by a class average.
