The Maserati 6C 34 is one of the Maserati entries the open record knows by name and by date — in 1934, and by little else. That is not nothing: a name in the catalogue is where a car's story starts to be recoverable. Its designer of record is Maserati.
How it came about
The Maserati 6C 34 is a 750 kg open-wheel Grand Prix race car, designed, developed and built by Maserati from 1934 to 1935.
The hardware
it is rated at 270 hp. Kerb weight is 750 kg. Power-to-weight lands near 360 horsepower per tonne, which is genuine supercar pace. The wheelbase is 2560 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
Family and rivals
Where it sits in Maserati's history is not in doubt: the Maserati 8CM came before it; the Maserati V8RI followed it. Its Maserati stablemates include the Maserati 150S and the Maserati 200S.
The money
There is no federal ownership record for the Maserati 6C 34 — it predates the complaint database or was never sold in the United States — so MotorJury publishes no running-cost figure for it. For a car of this age the price is set by the collector market and the condition of the individual example, not by a formula.
