RELATED: Here's What Makes The Alfa Romeo Tipo Stradale 33 Special While the sound of a GT with a V8 under the hood sounds like a viable option, it wasn’t for the Montreal. The heavier engine at the front affected the car’s handling with under steer, and despite double the cylinders, the 2.6-liter V8 produced a mere 200 hp and 173 lb-ft of
The combination of a 1,543-lb body and 250-hp engine was always going to result in a quick car. The 33 Stradale needed less than 6 seconds to accelerate to 60 mph and had a top speed of 160 mph, enough to make it one of the fastest cars of the '60s. Some examples could reportedly hit 180 mph.

Along with impracticality comes exclusivity. As only 18 were made and only 10 were sold outside of Alfa Romeo, they are as rare as a classic Alfa can get. A 33 Stradale will hardly ever come up for sale so the value estimate is almost unknown, although when presenting the new 4C in 2015, the head of North America at Alfa Romeo estimated theAlfa Romeo CEO Jean-Philippe Imparato promises the 33 Stradale will not be the brand's last special car as additional highly bespoke models are planned.

Riječima Jean-Philippea Imparata, izvršnog direktora marke Alfa Romeo, dočekali smo premijeru novog modela.
Alfa Romeo has brought the iconic 1967 33 Stradale back to life with modern tech and performance upgrades, representing the first custom-built car from the brand since 1969 and it looks stunning.
Alfa therefore chose to call the car the 33 Stradale, also because of the Tipo 33 concept they showed the same year. Like many other supercars well over 50 years ago, only a few examples of the 33 Stradale were made, and more precisely they settled for only 18 such cars. And the new one that will pay tribute to the classic follows the same recipe.
