 In celebration of Alfa Romeo’s rich 100-year history during which more than 70 models have been created, the Italian company is pleased to welcome a very special version of the Alfa Romeo GT 3.2, aptly named the GT Limited Edition.

A fitting swan song for this iconic model, only 30 of these Bertone-designed masterpieces are destined for South Africa, each one branded with a number to mark its individuality.

At  the heart of this model is Alfa’s powerful and sonorous 176 kW 3.2-litre Quadcam V6 – this catapults the GT to 100 km/h in just 6,7 seconds and on to a top speed of 243 km/h, while maintaining a more-than-respectable combined fuel consumption figure of 12,4 l/100km.

At a glance, here are some of the main spec highlights that the GT Limited Edition shares with its standard GT 3.2-litre sibling:

• Six airbags
• ABS with EBD
• Traction control (ASR) and Stability Control (ESP)
• Remote central locking
• Fully adjustable steering wheel with remote audio controls
• Trip computer
• Ski tunnel
• Front armrest with recess
• Dual-zone climate control
• Cruise control
• Rear PDC
• Front passenger seat height adjustment
• Bose Hi-Fi system

On top of the already impressive equipment found in the GT, the GT Limited Edition comes with this extra kit as standard:

• 18-inch “Limited Edition” alloys (5-spoke design)
• Sports leather seats with red stitching (leather seats are standard on the normal 3.2 but    the design is new for the LE)
• Blue&Me (handsfree Bluetooth, media player with USB port and voice commands)
• Red brake calipers
• Satin metallic finish mirrors, rille and door handles
• Visibility pack (auto headlights and wipers)
• Internal pack (aluminium sports pedals and sports instrument cluster)

Brimming with additional content and available at the same sticker price as the standard 3.2 – R395 100 (including VAT, excluding Co2 emissions tax*) – owning a true collector’s item has never been so enticingly accessible. (As is applicable to the rest of the GT range, the new Alfa Romeo GT Limited Edition comes with a 3 year / 60 000km maintenance plan and features service intervals of 20 000km.)
*Including emissions tax = R410 063
