Maserati Celebrates 20th Anniversary of MC12 with Special MC20 Editions

Maserati marks the 20th anniversary of its legendary MC12 supercar with the introduction of two special editions of the MC20: the MC20 Icona and MC20 Leggenda. These special editions pay homage to Maserati’s rich racing heritage and the iconic designs of the original MC12.

In 2004, Maserati made a grand return to sports car racing with the MC12, a car that quickly became a symbol of the brand’s prowess in motorsports. The MC12 GT1 was renowned for its blue and black Vitaphone Racing livery, while the road-going MC12 Stradale sported a distinctive blue and white split color scheme.

Maserati MC20 Icona – A Nod to MC12 Stradale

The MC20 Icona draws inspiration from the MC12 Stradale, featuring the same striking Bianco Audace Matte and Blu Stradale colors. This edition includes the Maserati Fuoriserie logo in Bianco Audace on the lower side panels and proudly displays the Italian tricolore on its doors. The special edition’s chrome-plated wheels come with silver hubcaps adorned with the blue Trident logo, and the brake calipers are painted to match in blue. Additional features include auto-dimming mirrors and a carbon engine cover, enhancing both its aesthetic appeal and performance.

Maserati MC20 Leggenda – Honoring MC12 Vitaphone

The MC20 Leggenda pays tribute to the MC12 GT1 with its Nero Essenza and Digital Mint Matte livery. This special edition is equipped with trident wheels finished in Nero Lucido with Nero Opaco and Digital Mint hubcaps. The Trident logo in yellow adorns the grille, doors, and C-pillars, while the brake calipers are finished in black. These elements combine to create a visually stunning vehicle that echoes the bold design of its racing predecessor.

Interior and Features

Both the MC20 Icona and MC20 Leggenda feature racing-inspired interiors, complete with lightweight 4-way monocoque racing seats embroidered with their respective edition names on the headrests. The carbon fiber interior package comes standard on both models, ensuring a luxurious yet performance-focused cabin environment.

These special editions not only celebrate Maserati’s illustrious past but also signal the brand’s ongoing commitment to excellence in design and engineering. With the MC20 Icona and MC20 Leggenda, Maserati enthusiasts have a unique opportunity to own a piece of automotive history that blends classic inspiration with cutting-edge technology.
