With an extremely low weight and an incredibly low drag coefficient of 0.28 (the same as a C6 Corvette), the car’s all alloy 1.3L Inline-4 was capable of propelling the car to around 125mph – much higher than its siblings managed. It is estimated that no more than 1,366 Giulietta Sprint Speciales were produced between 1959 and 1963. With its limited production and BAT-concept-inspired design, Giulietta Sprint Speciales (and the similar Giulia Sprint Speciale) are highly regarded by enthusiasts and critics alike. Precise handling and brisk acceleration ensure every journey is memorable, while its rarity ensures values are only likely to continue appreciating over time. The stunning 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale Coupe featured here is finished in stunning Rosso Alfa (Red) over a Nero (Black) leather interior. The 304th Sprint Speciale produced (by its chassis number), this exquisite motorcar has been beautifully restored by marque specialists and is now ready to be shown or driven by its next caretaker. We are proud to offer this investment-grade Alfa Romeo to the most demanding collector, investor, or enthusiast who desires to own one of the very best at an investment price!
