The Alfa Romeo GTV and Spider 916, produced from 1995 to 2005, represent a significant chapter in the storied history of the Italian automaker. These two-door, front-engine, rear-wheel-drive sports cars, internally known as the "Tipo 916," were penned by renowned designer, Enrico Fumia, and marked a return to Alfa Romeo's roots of sleek, elegant, and performance-oriented design. The GTV (Gran Turismo Veloce) was a coupe, while the Spider, as its name suggests, was a convertible. Both models boasted a sharp, wedge-shaped profile with distinctive, twin-headlamp arrangements, echoing the iconic Alfa Romeo design language. Under the hood, the 916 range offered a variety of engines, all known for their responsiveness and engaging character. The base models were equipped with a 2.0-liter Twin Spark four-cylinder, while a 3.0-liter V6 was available in various states of tune, culminating in the powerful GTA variant. The chassis, featuring MacPherson struts up front and a multilink independent rear suspension, was renowned for its precise handling and communicative nature. The GTV and Spider 916 quickly gained acclaim for their driving experience, blending Italian flair with a keen focus on performance, making them a popular choice for enthusiasts and collectors alike. Their distinctive design, along with the availability of various engine options and performance-oriented chassis, continue to make them a desirable and sought-after classic.
