The car’s striking appearance features a two-tone grey body with black fenders, exemplifying the aerodynamic styling that was avant-garde at the time. The interior is equally distinguished, featuring red leather seats that add a vibrant contrast to the exterior. Under the hood, the Alfa Romeo 6C 2300 Coupé Aerodinamico is powered by a robust six-cylinder engine, although no engine number is recorded.
