The Ghibli II is ready for release. In order to clear stocks and continue to make news, Maserati decided to graft the 24-valve V6 destined for export onto its Biturbo. Externally, the 222 4v was no more and no less than a rebadged Maserati Racing. The differences are limited to the number of colours available, as with the Racing model the choice was limited to red and black. The 222 4v, on the other hand, comes in a full range of colours. The more observant may notice that there are a few black models with smoked rear lights, as on the Racing and Shamal. Unfortunately, no-one is able to confirm whether all the black 222 4vs had this feature or whether these were personal modifications.
