What’s special about this listing

Are you searching for an Alfa Romeo RZ that is not only exceptionally rare, but also delivers that unmistakable thrill reserved for the very best-preserved examples?
Then RZ number 162 is exactly that kind of car. With only 278 units ever produced, this particular example—finished in the spectacular combination of Nero over Burgundy leather—belongs to the most desirable configurations within the entire limited production run. With just 38,000 kilometers and a fully verifiable history, this RZ captivates from the very first moment you lay eyes on it.

This RZ is meticulously documented and fully verified; nothing has been left to chance. The comprehensive dossier includes service records, official documents, factory information, and supporting evidence confirming that this is a car with a traceable and authentic past. The original board folder is present as well—an increasingly valuable detail within such a rare series.

What has always made the RZ so compelling is its origin within the ES-30 project: a bold collaboration between Centro Stile Alfa Romeo, Centro Stile Fiat, and the craftsmen at Zagato. The sharp lines, the distinctive profile, and the unique composite body panels emerged from a period in which Alfa Romeo dared to experiment. Robert Opron sketched the original design, Antonio Castellana refined the interior, and final assembly was carried out by hand at Zagato’s facility in Terrazzano di Rho. As a result, no two RZs are truly identical—each carries its own character.

Under the hood lies the legendary 3.0-liter V6, affectionately known among enthusiasts as the Busso. Its reputation stems from its smoothness, unmistakable sound, and immediate throttle response. With 210 horsepower and a chassis derived from the Alfa 75 IMSA race car, the RZ offers a driving experience that encourages you to engage with the car—intentionally, attentively, and with genuine connection. Koni dampers, wide Pirelli tires, and the complete absence of electronic driver aids create a mechanically pure experience rarely found today.

The specification of this particular example—Nero exterior with Burgundy leather—accentuates both its exclusivity and its bold design philosophy. It feels like a car built for true connoisseurs: distinctive, focused, scarce, and entirely faithful to its origins.

If you are looking for an Alfa Romeo RZ that excels both mechanically and aesthetically, with a rare color combination, low mileage, and a history that is correct down to the smallest detail, then we warmly invite you to view number 162/278 in person. This RZ is not just beautiful—it is exactly what you hope an RZ should be. We export our vehicles worldwide; please inquire about the possibilities.
