History and Development

The Giulietta Sprint Zagato, or just SZ, was built from 1959 to 1963. Alfa Romeo gave the Carrozzeria Zagato the task of completing a new model based on the floorpan of the Sprint Speciale, or SS. The Carrozeria Zagato turned Giulietta into a high performance car that proved to be great competitor on the tracks. Favored by those starting to race, the Giulietta SZ was actually the car that led many to professional driving. So, despite being a production car, Giulietta SZ turned out to be a very successful version on the tracks with few specifications changes.
