AutoItalia Magazine Issue 357 Zurück Ausgabe

Supercar stories abound in this month’s Auto Italia. Classic four-seaters battle it out in our cover feature, as the Lamborghini Espada faces the Ferrari 400 GT. We reassess the classic Dino 246 GT and are proud to publish an exclusive feature on Dino prototypes – some previously unseen – from the 1960s. We also report on Italy’s secret supercars (how many have you heard of?), look at Ferrari’s new 849 Testarossa and revisit the Ferrari Purosangue. Coming down to earth, we interview the team behind Fiat’s new Grande Panda and match it up with its inspiration: the classic Fiat Panda Mk1. From Italy, we have stories on ultra-rare Fiat 600 coachbuilt cars, both saloons and sports cars. The 1960s Alfa Romeo Giulia GT coupe is reimagined as the Totem GT-inspired Alfa Zottola restomod, while the modern Giulia saloon gets a full grilling in our full buying guide. Of course, we also have all our regular show reports, book reviews, news, clubs and cars for sale.
