This 1991 Alfa Romeo SZ (Sprint Zagato) is one of approximately 1,036 examples built during a single-year production run and shows just 74k kilometers (~46k miles). Finished in signature Rosso Alfa over tan leather, this SZ is an unmodified, original example aside from a recently installed MagnaFlow muffler. Designed in collaboration between Zagato and Alfa Romeo’s Centro Stile, the SZ was based on the Alfa 75/Milano platform and featured unique composite bodywork, Recaro seats, and the revered Busso 3.0L V6 paired with a five-speed manual transaxle.

​

Originally sold in Europe, this SZ was imported to the U.S. under the 25-year exemption and is currently located in California. It is offered on a clean Vermont title. Recent maintenance in preparation for sale includes the replacement of the factory muffler with a MagnaFlow stainless unit, giving the car a more pronounced exhaust note while maintaining its road manners.

The recent muffler upgrade was done to enhance the driving experience while preserving the originality of the rest of the car. Underside photos and walkaround videos are available in the gallery.
