The Alfa Zagato is a brilliant car.

The name of the car is Alfa Romeo GIULIA TZ2 carrozzata da ZAGATO CN.AR750106, and It's the only Zagato car in GT5, so I guess is okay to call it like that.

Also, this car is brilliant. Great handling, great looks, great sound. Could be faster.



carrozzata da ZAGATO = Zagato's bodywork
CN.AR750106 = Construction Number AR750106

On-topic: The car is beautiful
 
Hopefully they'll make other classics like this car. Such as a Ferrari and I'm not sure what it's called.

Has anyone run around with this car at night on Nurburgring? It's really fun. :)

What do you mean? :confused:

Its name is Alfa Romeo Giulia TZ2 not Alfa Romeo Zagato.
Do people call the Ford Focus, Ford Ghia ? Nope.

You do know what the TZ in TZ2 stands for don't you? Tubolare Zagato so there's a clear direct link between the Zagato name and this car unlike a Focus whereby the Ghia-name (once a famous independant Italian styling house similar to Zagato, Pininfarina and Bertone, etc. until becoming part of Ford) is only used to indicate a slightly upmarket version of that car which was designed in Germany.

About the colour, there are actually different coloured versions in real life of this car (although with different decals and numbers obviously), I've got 2 of them in GT5 (one won, one traded), one in the original colour (and keeping it that way) and one I painted Bianco Gardenia (a chip coming from a Giulia Sprint Speciale).
Found one real life example and 2 scale models of real versions painted another colour so I think the word sacrilege is a bit extreme in this context, I'm even tempted to buy a third one to paint yellow.

Remember only 14 TZ2's were ever build......

Not that one.

Trying to found my hotwheels car of it and I can't seem to find it. But what cars I did find that would be nice are the Ferrari 250 LM and the Ferrari 512M. especially the 512. I'll get back to this once I've found this car I'm looking for.
 
Got it. You're interested in another GT5 wishlist. :rolleyes:

I'm guessing you're looking for a Ferrari that looks similar to the TZ2, perhaps it's the Ferrari 250 GTO '62:

Yes the 250 GTO! I knew it had GTO in it's name. I'd love to see that car in the game.
 
Great car. A joy to drive and it sounds nice and unique. The car feels light and very capable with friendly handling. One of my favorites in GT5 for sure.
 
I just called it Zagato because I couldn't remember the rest of the name.

Absolutly nails the Porsche Curves at Le Mans, even a Blitz Skyline that left me for dead on the straights was mine through that section...
 
It is a dream car to drive, see and listen to.

I'd love to drive it more but for online racing its PP rating is too high so not really competitive online in PP matched races. All really light cars have a bit too high PP rating. They might have an x power to weight ratio but since that is with less HP they are trounced by higher HP cars with same PP.
