Awesome Car Pic: Alpine A110

This beautiful blue berlinetta style sports coupe is something you don’t often see – at least not here in the States. French automaker Alpine manufactured various incarnations of its rear-engined, rear-wheel drive A110 coupe all the way from 1961 to 1977, building its custom cars using primarily Renault components. The cars gained notoriety after Renault bought Alpine, and selected to race the A110 in the World Rally Championship in 1973.

This restored A110 is the 1300 G model and was photographed by Lothar Spurzem as it drove through Germany a couple of years back.
