Alfa Romeo TZ3 is coming

This was announced in 2003...

http://www.italiaspeed.com/news_2003/news_2003_122sportiva.html

The version you speak of was announced over a year ago. To bad they didn't stuff an Enzo engine into it as they spoke of in 03.

 

i hope it is befitting of the "tz" designation...

 

I also hope that the new car will be befitting of the TZ name...but fear that it'd just another marketing exercise. For a starter, I highly doubt that anyone would seriously contemplate using a tubular chassis!

The 8C, the Brera and the Mito all show (IMO) that Alfa can design and build gorgeous modern cars.

 

Great to see another performance Alfa on the way and even better to see one from Zagato.

 

Just curious if this car was developed with Messr. Bogaerts or with Jack Habits, or did you have any input as to its gestation?

 

this picture is actually the Zagato Perana with a Corvette V8 engine:

no news on a TZ3 yet......but who knows maybe they will be showing something at the Geneve Show 2010 ?

 

Is this the 8C Competizione GTA or a new car ?

 

Yes, and there is a third that should be added the Iso Marella, also designed by Zagato.

Marella Zagato is Piero Rivolta's daughter, Both Marella and Andrea run Zagato.

That Zagato is one of the best looking cars Ive seen in over a decade...just gorgeous (except for that one inlet in front of the front wheels)

I wish Ferrari could design something like that

 

Alfa is on a roll with their 'newer' designed cars!!!

 

That last couple of photos are probably more in line with what the next Ferrari Zagato will look like, not the Alfa. Atleast it is getting more of a classic Kamm tail now, more Zagato than the last all rounded tail.

Very nice but I think the Z06 & ZR1 are already great looking cars

Alfa Romeo TZ3 Corsa, Zagato (2010)

With Alfa Romeo midway through its centenary year, Zagato adds its voice to the celebrations with the TZ3 Corsa – a symbol of the historical cooperation between the two brands. The idea of “utilitarian beauty” is rooted in a philosophy of functionality and inspired by the tradition of motor racing shared by Zagato and Alfa Romeo since 1919. The TZ3 is the latest Zagato creation to be given its world premiere at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este.

 

First teaser from Zagato!

Does it look like it has gull wing doors?

 

Just realised where they must have gotten the inspiration for the backend of the Bertone Mantide in that last pic you posted.
