Why it matters
The 2600 was Alfa Romeo's flagship through much of the 1960s, introduced at Geneva in 1962 as the successor to the 2000 series. It was the last Alfa Romeo to use a double-overhead-camshaft inline six. The Sprint was the Bertone-bodied coupe, sold alongside the factory-bodied saloon and the Touring spider.
