One of them is up on the auction block - maybe all the forum members can chip in, buy it and turn it into a time-share ?! Damn, this is one purr-dy car !, I did not even know it existed - Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 .

Only 18 ever made for the street and sold.

While you're in Monte Carlo see if you can spot any 968s , surely a fine rare car like ours MUST be there competing for attention next to the Tipo 33 , or a Miura , or a Dino ..

A replica with no engine? No thanks, although it is a stunningly beautiful car.

Being only a quasi-replica, with a majority of genuine components ( although not original to that particular vehicle ) I could definitely be swayed, in spite of my dislike of kit cars and replicas in general . I'm guessing it might sell for a couple of mil. , considering the price of a completely original Tipo 33 is supposedly in the $ 10 - 15 mil level . And talk about a car which, unlike its equally stunning peers ( Dino ) , has performance that matches its looks ! The 18 street versions produced had a V8 generatimg 230 hp in a feather-weight 1500 lbs body . Oof, even by today's standards that is a highly respectable power to weight ratio .
