1958 Sprint Speciale:The Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale, also known as the Giulietta SS, was designed and offered as the more luxurious Giulietta in the range. While Alfa Romeo would design and manufacture the Berlina Sedan version of the Giulietta, Bertone designed the 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale with competition in mind. Clearly derived from the otherworldly Berlina Aerodinamica Tecnica and other show cars that had been created by Bertone in the mid-1950s, the Giulietta SS seemed a perfect solution to a competition version of the Bertone-designed Giulietta Sprint Veloce. Yet, the Sprint Speciale proved to be too heavy for the task, and instead became a stylish road car that added quite a bit of flair to the entry-level Alfa Romeo lineup. Manufactured from 1957 to 1962, the Giulietta Sprint Speciale would see approximately 1,366 models produced. If youre thinking about buying a 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale, or any model-year, the first task will be finding one in the condition you desire. Experts in the classic car industry, the team at The Beverly Hills Car Club can help you find the Giulietta SS you desire from those in need of complete restoration to those in mint-condition.

A: The 1958 Giulietta SS represents a crucial, ultra-rare chapter in the model’s story. These cars were built in very limited numbers during the pre-production or initial low-volume phase (Tipo 750 SS), still featuring the coveted ‘low nose’ design inspired by Scaglione’s B.A.T. studies. They often share unique characteristics with the 1957 prototypes, such as potential aluminum bodywork and specific early fittings, distinguishing them from the more common later production models (Tipo 101.20) that began in 1959. Their extreme rarity and position as precursors to full series production make them highly prized by discerning collectors and significantly influence their market value.

“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.”
“Jesse is a clear, prompt communicator–excellent and informed.”
“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 !!”
“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.”
