The first series of the Quattroporte is one of the rarest models of the brand, with just 776 examples built.

The car, designed by Frua-Alfieri, was presented at the Turin motor show in the autumn of 1963 and marked an epochal turning point for the trident brand.

The press praised its driving behaviour, the materials used, the elegant design, the technical solutions and the extraordinary performance, making it an object of desire for the highest social class. The exceptional 4,136 cc eight-cylinder engine, derived directly from competitions, was capable of delivering a power of around 260 HP, still noteworthy performance today, and was also appreciated for its sound and reliability.

The car offered very high standards in terms of driving comfort and habitability, clearly superior to its competitors, also thanks to the luxurious finishes and new optional. The car remained in production for six years, in which there were only minor updates, including the adoption of dual headlights in 1966.
