  • Zagato Alfa Romeo TZ3 Stradale [video]

    Zagato Alfa Romeo TZ3 Stradale was shown at the 2013 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este. The rare sports car was developed to celebrate Alfa Romeo’s 100th birthday and is based on Dodge Viper ACR, which was the fastest street legal car around Nurburgring.

    Only nine TZ3 Stradale were produced and all of them have a carbon fiber body with a “Kamm-tail” paying tribute to the classic TZ and TZ2. The engine is coming from the well-known 8.4 liter naturally aspirated V10 with 600HP (450 kW) and 760Nm (560 lb-ft) of torque. 0-100 km/h in less than 4.0 seconds and ¼ mile in mid 11-second range. The engine is mated to 6-speed sequential gearbox.

    The sound is really sensational (check in the video below)!

  • Zagato Alfa Romeo TZ3

    The next Zagato Alfa TZ3 will be based on the Dodge Viper, which seems a better choice instead of 8C Competizione.

    The new TZ3 will be powered by the same engine as the Viper – 8.4 liter V10 with 612PS (450 kW) as opposed to the 4.2 liter V8 with 420 PS (309 kW) of the initial design study vehicle.

    The extra power will be needed to because of the extra weight – 600 kg more than the 850 kg (1874 lbs) TZ3 Corsa.

    The TZ3 will be presented at Pebble Beach in August with production set to begin in 2012.

    We can’t wait to see some videos of the new TZ3 on the race tracks.

    Stay tuned for further details!
