1957 Sprint Speciale: The Bertone-designed Sprint Speciale version of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta would debut in 1957 with streamlined bodywork and a truly sensational appearance. Bearing a resemblance to some of the legendary Italian brands earlier competition designs, the 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale is often compared to the Disco Volante sports car and the futuristic Berlina Aerodinamica Tecnica. It would become a stylish road car, adding more than a bit of grand touring flash and appeal to the entry-level Alfa Romeo line. All Giulietta Sprint Speciale models are equipped with a powerful 1.3L, Veloce-specification twin-cam engine, which offers twin Weber carburetors and approximately 100hp. For collectors and enthusiasts, the 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale is considered one of the most attractive Alfa Romeo classics of its era. A car that can find its place at any vintage rally, standing out even among the most elite sports cars, the Giulietta Sprint Speciale is an exceptional option for those looking to add a classic Alfa Romeo to their collection.

It is estimated that approximately 1,366 examples of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale were manufactured prior to 1963 when the model would become the Giulia Sprint Speciale. The only real change to the car at that time was the introduction of a new 1,570cc engine and disc brakes at the front. If youre thinking about buying a 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale, you can rest assured knowing this is an Alfa Romeo investment that is sure to stand the test of time, as enthusiasts and collectors alike find special interest in the classic Sprint Speciale. When purchasing, however, always ensure that the model you are interested in is as original as possible. While mechanics are typically straight forward and relatively easy to work on, bodywork for these particular models can be quite costly. Rust is an issue with early Alfa Romeos, and every example should be inspected for rot throughout the body. A qualified Alfa Romeo mechanic or classic car specialist can assist you in this process.

Your Sprint Speciale Selling Questions Answered

Q: Why is a 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale so historically important and valuable?

A: The 1957 examples represent the birth of the Sprint Speciale. They are the original prototypes or pre-production models shown to the world, embodying Scaglione’s B.A.T.-inspired vision in its purest form. These ‘low nose’ cars (Tipo 750 SS) are exceptionally rare, potentially numbering only a handful built before the slightly revised production versions commenced in 1959. Their unique features (like potential aluminum bodywork), direct link to the Turin Motor Show debut, and status as the first of their kind make them incredibly desirable to serious collectors and significantly impact their value.

Q: How do you establish 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale values?

A: Valuing a 1957-era SS prototype or pre-production model requires deep expertise due to their extreme rarity. Standard market guides often don’t apply. At Beverly Hills Car Club, our valuation considers:

Provenance and History: Documentation linking the car to 1957, its show history, or early ownership is paramount.
Condition and Originality: Assessing the preservation of its unique early features (low nose, specific components, lightweight materials) is critical. Is it restored, preserved, or a project?
Rarity: Acknowledging its status as one of the very first examples built.
Current Market for Elite Classics: Leveraging our 20+ years of experience and global network to understand the demand for such historically significant vehicles.

We provide transparent, well-researched valuations reflecting the unique nature of these early Sprint Speciales.

Q: What are the unique challenges if I want to “Sell my 1957 Sprint Speciale“?

A: Selling a car of this rarity and significance presents specific hurdles:

Finding Qualified Buyers: The pool of buyers with the knowledge and resources for a 1957 SS prototype is very small and specialized.
Valuation Difficulty: Accurately pricing such a rare vehicle without expert help is challenging.
Discretion and Security: Handling inquiries and the transaction for a high-value, historically important car requires careful management.
Condition Assessment: Buyers will need thorough inspections, which can be complex for unique, early-build cars.
Global Reach: The right buyer might be anywhere in the world, requiring complex logistics.

Q: For a rare 1957 model, is a specialist Sprint Speciale dealership like Beverly Hills Car Club better than auctions?

A: For a vehicle as rare as a 1957 SS, selling directly to a specialist dealership like Beverly Hills Car Club offers distinct advantages over public auctions:

Guaranteed Sale & Price: We make a firm offer and provide immediate payment. Auctions offer no guarantee of sale, and the final price is uncertain.

Expertise: We have the specific knowledge to accurately value and appreciate the nuances of a 1957 prototype or early example.
No Fees: Auctions involve substantial seller’s commissions and buyer’s premiums, which reduce your net proceeds and can deter bidders. We charge no fees.
Speed and Simplicity: Our process is fast and straightforward, avoiding the lengthy consignment and payout timelines of auctions.

Q: What is the “Best place to sell classic Sprint Speciale“, especially a historically significant 1957 car?

Recent Alfa Romeo Seller Reviews:

Julio A.

1974 Alfa Romeo GTV 2000

April 7, 2025

“My contact with Alex was unsolicited. I found his website by searching for persons dealing in the purchase and sale of Alfa Romeo GTV 2000’s. I asked if he was interested in purchasing my 1974 GTV 2000, he said yes, he sent his representative (David) out the following day. David took numerous pictures of the entire vehicle and texted them to Alex. David was courteous, respectful and professional. After his review, Alex and I agreed on a price and the deal was completed. It was that quick and that simple. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the entire interaction.”

1967 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider Duetto

January 31, 2025

“The experience was GREAT. Very easy, quick and professional vs “is it still available”. I put it in gear on Monday, on Thursday the funds were in the account and Sunday the Alfa was in a trailer heading to its new home. THANK YOU !!”

Dennis W.

1964 Alfa Romeo

December 20, 2024

“I acquired my Alfa Romeo Giulia 1600 Spider with thoughts of completing it’s restoration and getting it back on the road. But time went by, and the Alfa kept waiting. Now at 84 years old I’ve decided I need to let go of the Giulia so it can finally have another chance with someone who will also enjoy it. I sold it to The Beverly Hills Car Club. It was very easy, quick, and pleasant working with everyone there; their flatbed truck driver arrived at our home and worked with care to load the car and all its parts. I recommend them highly.”
