Never Seen One Before, But Really Cool

1947 Alfa Romeo Other 6C 2500 Freccia d'Oro

I wouldn't call it pretty, as I would with most Alfas, but it's quite a handsome thing.

I want to own that building.

Well I didn't say it was pretty, just cool. Although I'm of the opposite opinion as I think it's prettier than most Alphas I've seen.

Looks pretty neat

There was one of those in The Godfather movie - it's the car Michael Corleone's Sicilian wife was driving when it blew up.

No doubt. Both the car and building are gorgeous.

Good call Stuart!

Cooper Technica in Chicago has a couple of 1942 Alfas under restoration that look very similar to this. Imagine the pull you must have had--- to have a car like this built when WWII was raging, and the military needed every bit of raw material available. From what I understand a high-ranking German officer got one--- I'm not sure who ordered the other---- Mussolini?

Isn't that what Michael Corleone's wife was blown up in?

Are those VW headlights on the original one posted?

Yup. You can look it up on the internet movie cars database. http://www.imcdb.org/
