At the time the Alfa Romeo 2000 Sprint (1960) and Spider (1958) variations were released, many believed they represented the best of Italian styling, despite the rather conservative design. First debuted in Berlina form, the introduction of the Alfa Romeo 2000 launched the Alfa Romeo into the larger saloon car category. Around the same time, a Spider version built by Touring would be released. At the end of 1960, the Alfa Romeo 2000 Sprint would debut. It was effectively a slightly longer Spider chassis and engine with a new two-door, four-seat body by Bertone. Of the three body styles available for the Alfa Romeo 2000, the Alfa 2000 Sprint is the hardest to find today, as only an estimated 704 examples were produced before the model was succeeded by the Alfa Romeo 2600. Mechanically, however, collectors love the Alfa Romeo 2000 for its obvious racing influence. With their twin-cam engines, large Alfin brakes, well-developed suspension and quick, responsive steering, they are simply a joy to drive. But at 2,596 pounds for the Sprint, the power-to-weight ratio is sometimes pointed out as the classics one downfall.
