Alfa Romeo Spider

Automobiles

The Alfa Romeo Spider is an Italian two-seat roadster whose original "Duetto" generation, styled by Pininfarina, launched in 1966 and remained in production with evolving bodywork for a remarkable 27 years. It gained international recognition after a Duetto was featured prominently in the 1967 film "The Graduate," cementing the car's image as a symbol of stylish, carefree Italian sports motoring.
