Although it has never raced, it is still race-ready.
Racing is a sport that requires a lot of money to succeed. Unfortunately, that old saying still holds true. Ferrari of Houston has just put up for sale a 2019 Alfa Romeo Giulietta TCR racing car at $180,000. It’s a large sum, but it is a good deal. But what is the car?
The TCR series is a race-prepped, production hot coupes that travel to the most prestigious race tracks around the globe. The cars are extremely close in terms performance so the racing is always competitive and entertaining.
The vehicle is available for sale at Ferrari of The Woodlands. It was originally prepared by the Risi Competizione race team. This car is only 50 miles old and can participate in the IMSA Michelin Pilot Series. It can also be eligible for the NASA, SRO TC America and Canadian Touring Car Championship.
The engine is a turbocharged turbocharged 4-cylinder engine of 1,742cc that produces 350 horsepower (261.9 kilowatts). The SADEV six speed sequential gearbox can shift gears in a flash – this is the same company that made the gearbox in the Hoonicorn. The Giulietta TCR comes with ABS braking, even though some racing series do not allow it.
Surprisingly, Ferrari of Houston has more than just an Alfa. They also have a 2017 Ferrari 488 Challenge. It’s not hard to see that this front-wheel-drive competitor wants to please, and is waiting to be the track day toy you dream of.
