Unique Giugiaro masterpiece to be sold at Chantilly, France
Story by Gijsbert-Paul Berk
In the same week that 78 year-old Giorgetto Giugiaro sold the remaining 9.9% of his shares in the Italdesign Giugiaro SpA to the Volkswagen-Audi group, the international auction house Bonhams announced that they will auction off one of Giugiaro’s icons, the unique Maserati Boomerang concept car. This auction will be held on September 5 during the Concours d’Elegance at the Château de Chantilly, near Paris, France. The Boomerang has participated at many world-class Show events such as the Bagatelle in Paris, Villa d’Este, the Concours Italiano, and Pebble Beach. In 2005 it was sold at an auction by Christie’s for €781,250 (US$1,007,005). [Read more…] about Giugiaro Retires, Boomerang at Auction
