Alfa Romeo is a brand that is renowned for some truly artistic creations, including the most beautiful car in the world.

The legendary Italian marque has produced some of the most aesthetically pleasing cars ever made.

Alfa Romeo recently continued the trend with its latest supercar offering.

And now, fans have realized where ‘the most beautiful car in the world’ actually ended up.

Alfa Romeo pays homage to one of its most iconic cars

The summer of 2022 saw Alfa Romeo unveil an incredible project that pays homage to its past.

It particularly pays tribute to what might be the most beautiful car in the world – the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale.

The original Stradale was produced by the Italian brand between 1967 and 1969.

Just 18 examples of the original Stradale were ever produced – which, in many ways, is a shame.

But Alfa Romeo decided to revive the nameplate – and create the world’s most beautiful car in the process.

Such a special, tribute-paying project requires the help of the very best coachbuilders one can find.

So Alfa Romeo outsourced the design to Italian coachbuilding firm Touring Superleggera.

This modern tribute actually comes with not one, but two powertrain options for its 33 units.

Buyers can choose a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged, 690T V6 engine – derived from the Quadrifoglio.

The other option one can choose for your 33 Stradale is an all-electric powertrain.

Modern 33 Stradale wows the masses in Monterey

Of course, the most beautiful car in the world just had to make its way to American soil.

And boy, oh boy, did it just do that – wowing the crowds at Monterey Car Week in California.

So, where exactly has this example of the most beautiful car in the world ended up?

Well, to quote Indiana Jones, it turns out that it belongs in a museum.

The Petersen Auto Museum in Los Angeles is the place now housing this 33 Stradale.

Visitors to the museum will get a close-up, hands-on look at what Alfa Romeo has described as ‘the most beautiful cars in the world.’
