This is the first of a new series we’re presenting, dedicated to those things which are among our favorites, and usually things we’d like to have ourselves.
We’re starting this feature with a car from Alfa Romeo, and while the legendary Italian automaker is renowned for many iconic cars, my own favorite is the simple and refined 2000 GT Veloce. Produced in Turin between ’71 to ’76 and designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro for Bertone, the 150 hp pocket sports car, had a fantastic engine that made an even better sound. Alfa, never being known for great reliability, meant that owners were always tinkering and improving under the hood, creating even more unique versions. The GTV was also a winning racing model, contributing to much of Alfa’s notoriety within racing circles.
