THE ALFA ROMEO GT A NEW STANDARD FOR STYLE AND PERFORMANCE
Choosing a luxury performance coupe will become a lot easier on
1st July when Alfa Romeo launches its all-new Alfa Romeo GT, a remarkable blend
of style, performance and practicality that will prove
irresistible. Unlike many of its rivals, the Alfa Romeo GT is not a two
door version of an existing sedan; it is a unique car in its own right. The
GT has been designed to offer a level of eye-catching style and
breathtaking performance from the acclaimed 3.2 litre V6 Alfa Romeo engine.
It has a luxurious interior that manages to combine the intimate interior of
sports car, where all the controls fall naturally to hand, with a room for
five people and a spacious, easily accessible boot. With the same 300
Nm of torque as the 3.2 litre Alfa Romeo engine used in the lauded GTA
versions of the Alfa Romeo 156 and 147, along with 176 kW of power, the GT
has epic performance on call in every one of its six gears, despatching the
dash to 100 kmh in 6.7 seconds. Alfa Romeo will announce the final
pricing and specification of the Alfa Romeo GT when it goes on sale on 1st
July, but in line with all Alfa Romeo products, it can be expected that the
equipment levels will be lavish, the trim and fittings luxurious and the
price remarkably keen. "The Alfa Romeo GT could not be a more fitting
figurehead for the Alfa Romeo range," says Kevin Wall, General Manager for
Alfa Romeo in Australia. "It brings together everything that is expected of
an Alfa Romeo. Traffic-stopping style, awesome performance, an extraordinary
level of practicality, with sumptuous levels of equipment and all at a price
that will surprise all when we announce it on 1st July 2004."
