Love it or hate it, you can’t look away. 👹🇮🇹
Boxy, brutalist, and wildly ahead of its time, the Alfa Romeo SZ earned a nickname the moment it appeared: “Il Mostro.” The Monster. And this 1991 example closes on Bring a Trailer in just 24 hours. ⏳
Two things most people don’t know about it:
🔸 It says Zagato on the badge, but Zagato didn’t design it. The shape came from Robert Opron, the visionary behind the Citroën SM. Zagato built it by hand.
🔸 Only 1,036 were ever made, and every one wore Alfa Red with a grey roof. Every one except a single black car, built for Andrea Zagato himself.
Never officially sold in the U.S., the SZ pairs a soulful 3.0L Busso V6 with race-bred handling, and examples rarely surface stateside.
