Celebrating a 90-year partnership in motor sport, Alfa Romeo and Zagato have unveiled the TZ3 Corsa, a tribute to the historic partnership between the two Italian companies at this year’s Villa D’Este.

Zagato has made it very clear that the TZ3 is not a design study - It’s a thoroughbred race car. The sleek and extremely lightweight Zagato bodywork clothes a mono shell carbon fibre tubular chassis and tubular frame, with power coming from the 8C Competizione's Ferrari-derived V8.

The TZ3 was commissioned by long-time Alfa Romeo enthusiast and collector Martin Kapp, who owns a large collection of Alfa Zagato models, spanning the 90-year partnership, including an SZ coda tonda, SZ coda tronca, TZ, TZ2, Junior Z and S.Z.

I just e-mailed this to my best friend. I am 62 and havve loved sports cars my whole life. my friend owned a 60's alfa and at that time he loved them as much as I loved ferraris. We loved the Zagato back then and got to see one at a very small used sports car dealership south of here..(Harrisburg,Pa) This current Zagato continues alfas excellent radition. I(we) love it!!!!!! Keep up the great work Octane!
