Alfa Romeo Classic Cars

Giorgetto Giugiaro's crisp, perfectly proportioned coupe — one of the most influential and imitated sports car designs of the 1960s.

Built on the well-regarded Giulia sedan's platform and mechanicals, the Sprint GT wrapped genuinely capable underpinnings in bodywork designed by a 25-year-old Giorgetto Giugiaro at Bertone — a design so clean and well-resolved that its basic proportions influenced coupe design for a generation afterward. The combination of a free-revving twin-cam engine, all-independent suspension, and disc brakes made it a genuinely serious sports coupe, not just a pretty shape over ordinary mechanicals.

Pininfarina's "boat tail" roadster — an elegant, long-lived open-top Alfa immortalized by Dustin Hoffman in The Graduate.

Styled by Pininfarina with a distinctive rounded "boat tail" rear that gave the original cars their Duetto nickname, the Spider paired genuinely engaging twin-cam performance with open-top Italian style across an unusually long 27-year production run. Its starring role opposite Dustin Hoffman in The Graduate gave the car lasting cultural recognition in America that few contemporary European roadsters achieved.
