Alfa Romeo TZ3 Corsa
The Zagato-designed Alfa Romeo TZ3 Corsa has been unveiled at the Villa D’Este concours, and frankly, it’s spectacular. Driven by the Alfa 8C Competizione’s V8, the TZ3 is very much in keeping with its 60s-era predecessors, the TZ1 and TZ2, sporting similar detail elements and the same near-breadvan profile. Also like the originals, this is a legit racing car. Unlike its forbears, however, the new machine wears aluminum bodywork stretched over a tube frame and carbon-fiber chassis. Power, as indicated before, is also of thoroughly modern origin.
Zagato says the TZ3 was commissioned by German collector Martin Kapp as a special celebration of 100 years of racing from Scuderia Ferrari, Alfa Corse, Autodelta, and Scuderia Zagato.

I’m drooling. I loved my alfa. I wish they were available in the US.

I’m not that keen on the snake on the bonnet but that’s a minor gripe.
Leave it to Alfa to celebrate in style.
The Pininfarina, the Pandion, now this. The next hundred years of Alfa should certainly be interesting. Personally I’d like to see them produce more city cars.
