Red, you say?
Easy enough.
Behold, the 1985 Alfa Romeo GTV-6 Callaway. One of 35 ever built and one of only five factory prototypes. (This is the very car tested by Car and Driver, Road & Track, Autoweek, etc.)
Car and Driver said: The Alfa's stock[...]engine has been transformed into a hyperthyroid state by the addition of twin turbochargers and intercoolers. The resulting [horsepower] can hurl the Alfa from 0 to 60 mph in a mere 5.4 seconds and slingshot it through the quarter-mile in 13.6 seconds at 98 mph. Top speed is limited to 160 mph by the 6300-rpm redline , though the engine will willingly pull well past that figure. That's enough performance to let the Alfa keep pace with some of the quickest cars in the country. (Like, say, every Ferrari, Maserati and Porsche.)
Road and Track said: A supercar worthy of the Fangio and Nuvolari tradition.
Road and Track also said: A fire breathing dragon.
It is, easily, the very reddest thing I own. I love this car.
