The Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione is a limited edition Gran Turismo car that pays tribute to the brand's storied past of racing and advanced technology, and was presented at the Paris motor show. Drawing on the acclaim the concept car garnered at the 2003 Frankfurt Motor Show, Alfa Romeo and Maserati joined forces to combine their design and production departments - ultimately creating the 8C Competizione.
The car's name alludes to the former Alfa Romeo models of the 1930s and 1940s that used an 8-cylinder engine designed by Vittorio Jano. It is also reminiscent of the '6C 2500 Competizione', a 1950s sports coupe that was raced by the Fangio-Zanardi duo at the Mille Miglia.
The '8C Competizione' name is a symbol of Alfa Romeo's racing heritage, honoring the men and their passion for motor racing and engine development, as well as their pursuit of fresh challenges.
