When it was launched, the Alfa Romeo 8C-2900 was the fastest road car in the world, so it demanded equally dramatic bodywork.
The 6C-2500 was as close as Alfa Romeo got to an off-the-shelf high-end coupé, with bodywork from Touring the default choice.
The lines were very similar to the 1900 Super Sprint’s, but the Giulietta was a marginally more practical car with more space for its two occupants and their luggage.
Alfa Romeo offered two coupés based on the same underpinnings, with the SS (Sprint Speciale) version featuring a body by Bertone.
It used the same mechanical base as the SS version but, as the name suggests, this car had bodywork from Zagato. This brought a chopped-off Kamm-tail rear rather than the SS’s more sloping shape.
Alfa Romeo built a 2000 Sprint model but only managed a production run of 700 compared to 10 times that for the 2600.
Using the pugnacious Giulia Ti saloon as its starting point, Alfa Romeo came up with the delicate Giulia Sprint coupé.
One of the most exotic coupés produced by Alfa Romeo, the TZ was a follow-up to the delightful SS and SZ models.
Alfa Romeo updated its Giulietta coupé in 1966 to come up with one of its most popular and defining cars with the GT 1300 Junior.
Another variation on the 105 Series range of Alfa Romeo coupés, the 1750 GTV distinguished itself from its smaller-engined siblings with its quad headlights.
