2nd Midlife Crisis? Anyone know if there are any commemorative coins or medals for this brand?

Yeah, I've had the itch for awhile to have another Sports Car. This one showed up and I just couldn't resist for the price, even though I know it's going to cost me a small fortune to keep on the road.

For those wondering. I blew the leaves off my driveway yesterday! The upside of living in the woods this time of year! :#

    I’d rather have a truck but nice car.
    No coins of that brand!

    If you know what it is, it wouldn’t be an exotic 😉

    Maseratti. The trident is their symbol. It is also in script on the rear.

    Thanks. I bet it'll be fun getting parts and service for it. :D

    I thought the same thing when I first saw it. :D

    Maintenance and upkeep are not something usually worried about. I believe it follows the axiom that if you have to ask then you probably should not own one. I would be willing to attempt 185 for you 😉

    My 1st jeep was 64 CJ2, 6 jeeps later my last jeep was a 1999 and after 234k miles I sold it last year. My only sports car was a 1961 MGA. Loved it but they are for young people(my opinion)

    Beautiful Maserati amwldcoin. Congrats. Hope you enjoy it, as I am sure you will.

    I don't have a license and have never owned a car. The advantages of living in the city.

    I must say that is a nice looking vehicle.

    You can get a rag top version, but instead of a Cambriocosa Coupe it's called a Spyder and is a 2 seater with same chassis and guts if I'm not mistaken.

    Edit to add: It's hard enough to get wifey in a ride like this, a rag top is a no go for her but I was on the fence about getting an open top!

    @Oldhoopster... Those must be new designs... I lived and worked there for three and a half years, and their coins were more British at the time. Cheers, RickO

    The Trident on those Barbados Coins sure looks like it the Spectre logo from the latest James Bond movie!
