The Alfa Romeo GTV, introduced in 1995, marked a triumphant return to form for Alfa Romeo in the compact sports coupe segment. Penned by Enrico Fumia at Pininfarina, its striking wedge-shaped profile and distinctive quad-headlight treatment were a bold statement, immediately setting it apart from its contemporaries. Internally designated as the Type 916, it shared its platform with the Alfa Romeo Spider but was engineered for a more focused, sporting drive. While initially offered with a range of four-cylinder engines, the ultimate expression of the 916 GTV arrived with the legendary Busso V6. This engine, a masterpiece of engineering and acoustic delight, became synonymous with Alfa Romeo's sporting heart, and its inclusion in the GTV cemented the model's status as a future classic. This particular 1997 Alfa Romeo GTV exemplifies the pinnacle of the 916 generation, featuring the revered 3.0-liter 24V Busso V6 engine paired with a precise manual transmission. With a remarkably low 34,500 original miles, this example presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a meticulously maintained piece of automotive art. Its Pininfarina-designed lines are beautifully preserved, complementing a stunning interior that speaks to its cherished life. Recent work includes a fresh oil change and new tires, ensuring it's ready for its next enthusiast owner, and it comes with a clean USA title. For the discerning collector or the enthusiast seeking the soulful wail of the Busso, this GTV represents a rare acquisition.
