#915.858

This great de luxe convertible provided a new platform for the ideas worked out by Pinin Farina in the immediate postwar period.

Vehicle Overview

The Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 SS Spider, chassis 915.858, designed by Pininfarina, stands as an epitome of automotive innovation and elegance. Noteworthy for its unique design elements, this particular model showcases Pininfarina’s mastery in breaking away from convention and introducing groundbreaking features. One of the standout features of this Alfa Romeo is the arrangement of two pairs of headlights with different diameters, ingeniously positioned in the link between the grill and mudguard. This innovative approach was an absolute novelty at the time, disrupting the sweeping surface curve and creating a distinctive slimming effect. Pininfarina’s design brilliance is evident in this bold departure from traditional headlight configurations. The windscreen of the 6C 2500 SS Spider is notably flat and slopes steeply, contributing to the car’s aerodynamic profile. The side windows, segmented into two parts, add to the visual allure, emphasizing both style and functionality. A remarkable design aspect is the fully retractable hood, seamlessly housed in the recess behind the seats, ensuring a streamlined appearance when not in use. Adding a touch of sophistication, the wheels are adorned with chromium-plated, painted discs, further enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the vehicle. The attention to detail and the harmonious integration of design elements are indicative of Pininfarina’s commitment to creating automotive masterpieces. While the 6C 2500 SS Spider is celebrated for its convertible configuration, it’s worth noting that a berlinetta version was also crafted. This alternative version, housed in the prestigious Lopresto Collection, further demonstrates the versatility of Pininfarina’s design, catering to different automotive preferences while maintaining the inherent allure and sophistication that defines the Alfa Romeo brand. In the realm of automotive design, the Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 SS Spider stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of Pininfarina and the timeless beauty of Italian craftsmanship.
