Single-family ownership for the past 17 years, the Giugiaro-designed body is finished in Rosso Alfa (530) over a Black upholstery. Special edition Balocco graphics salute Alfa Romeo's Balocco test track in northern Italy and retains its original black leather seats with red piping. A dashboard plaque designates this GTV6 as number 145 of 350 special edition Balocco cars, and additional equipment includes air conditioning, red carpets, and power windows. The interior has the factory steering wheel with a 140-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and a quartz clock, while gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, and oil pressure reside in the center of the dash. The six-digit odometer shows 12,237 miles and the true mileage is unknown. Black 15? Campagnolo alloy wheels with Alfa Romeo center caps and Yokohama tires.

The 2.5-liter Busso V6 is equipped with Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection, rated at 154 horsepower and 152 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a rear-mounted manual 5-speed transaxle. This is a turn-key running and driving car that is in need of a full service. An excellent opportunity to acquire the limited edition Balocco that can be used as-is or restored in the future.
