Alfa Romeo TZ3 Stradale by Zagato Advertised for $700k

First presented back in 2010, the Alfa Romeo TZ3 Stradale by Zagato is a very special Italian grand tourer underpinned by an all-American drivetrain. Only 9 were made and this is #7 of the lot, for sale at a Californian dealership for an eye tearing $699,900.

This extremely rare beast shows a tad over 300 miles on the clock, so it seems like the original owner has driven it a handful of time to the shops and that was that. Finished in beautiful Metallic Brown and boasting an unmistakably Italian brown leather-wrapped interior, the TZ3 Stradale by Zagato is a coachbuilt masterpiece with American guts.

Peel off the Zagato skin and you're left with what's basically a Dodge Viper ACR: 8.4-liter naturally aspirated V10 powerhouse, 640 ponies, a six-speed stick shift transmission and rear-wheel drive for on-demand hoonage whenever you tickle the loud pedal.

Add those stats to a lighweight yet strong carbon fiber body heavily inspired by the old school Alfa Romeo Tubolare Zagato 1 and 2, including the classic Kamm tail, and what you get is a car just as pretty as the Alfa Romeo 8C, but with added grunt and as rare as hen's teeth.
