It was initially introduced as "Ginevra" at the Geneva Motor Show, later adopting the name "G.C." in reference to the initials of its owner, engraved on the doors as a nod to classic automobiles from the 1930s.
Built on an Alfa Romeo chassis with rear-wheel drive, the G.C. showcases bold, defining lines that emphasize its overall volume and proportions.

Under the hood, the G.C. is powered by an Alfa Romeo 3.2-liter V6 engine, delivering 260 horsepower at 6,600 rpm. The power is transmitted through a Selespeed gearbox, offering precise control and enhanced driving performance. The car’s dimensions align with its sporty character, measuring 4168 mm in length, 1728 mm in width, and 1280 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2513 mm.
Inside, the G.C. offers a unique, personalized experience for the owner. One of its standout features is the ability to recognize its owner through a wristwatch, which automatically opens the car’s doors. The interior’s leather trim is coordinated with the exterior, ensuring a seamless and luxurious aesthetic.
The G.C. made a significant impression at the Geneva Motor Show and went on to make waves at the prestigious Villa d’Este Concours d’Elegance.
