1969 Alfa Romeo Tipo 33/2 Coupe Speciale by Pininfarina

The 1969 Alfa Romeo Tipo 33/2 Coupe Speciale is a Pininfarina concept car designed by Leonardo Fioravanti. The Ferrari P5 concept shown a year earlier at Geneva influenced its design. The car looks like a futuristic masterpiece now, so imagine what it must have looked like in 1969.


The Prototype Coupe Speciale was a rotund coupe with a concave hood, ovoid rear wings, gullwing doors (hydraulically working butterfly doors), pop-up headlights, and the transparent roof going right to the back of the car. Put it all together, and get an incredibly sleek and sexy vehicle ahead of its time. Use the vehicle chassis No. 750.33.115. It bore a striking yellow paint.


The car was powered by a mid-mounted 2-liter V8 engine producing 245 PS (180 kW; 242 hp) at 8800 rpm and is based on the road going 33 Stradale. The car's top speed is around 250 km/h (160 mph).
