Resale Outlook

Marque analyst note

The Maserati Merak market in Australia is showing significant weakness, with the current median price of AUD $82,227 down 17.8 percent year-over-year, signalling deteriorating sentiment around the model.

Liquidity in the Australian market is severely constrained, with zero recorded sales over the past 12 months and no active listings currently tracked. This absence of transaction data makes price discovery difficult and suggests buyers and sellers are disconnected on valuation expectations.

The Merak carries a collectibility score of 6 and classified status, positioning it as a moderately desirable classic. However, desirability remains low in the current market, which combined with the illiquid trading environment indicates limited collector demand at present price levels.

Base projections suggest further contraction ahead. The model is forecast to reach approximately AUD $52,733 within three years (a 35.9 percent decline from current levels) and AUD $46,033 within five years (44.0 percent decline), reflecting sustained downward pressure on values.

The depreciating trajectory and lack of trading activity point to a buyers' market with little urgency. Sellers holding inventory should consider realistic pricing adjustments to stimulate interest, while prospective buyers have time to wait for stabilisation before committing to acquisition.
