Alfa Romeo took centre stage at the 2025 Sydney Harbour Concours d’Elegance, with one particularly stunning example of the Italian brand’s heritage claiming top honours.
Named Best in Show Overall was a 1933 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 GS Figoni, crafted by the legendary coachbuilder Joseph Figoni, cementing its place as one of the finest examples of classic automotive artistry.
Additionally, a 1948 6C 2500 Freccia D’Oro on show for the second year in a row was honoured with the Pre-War Passion Award as a testament to its enduring elegance and historical significance.
Alfa Romeo also showcased the Giulia Quadrifoglio at the event as a display of the brand’s modern high-performance engineering, Italian styling, and lasting brand value.

Over 40 cars from all Australian states, along with three different continents, were judged at the event by an international jury led by Alessandra Giorgetti from Italy.
Giorgetti herself was born in Milan and has deep ties to Alfa as a third-generation collector. She owns a 1960 Alfa Giulia Super which she describes as “magic”, although her 1947 6C 2500 Aerlux Touring Superleggera is the car she claims as her favourite in her collection and the 33 Stradale by Scaglione as her all-time favourite.
“Old cars move emotions when you drive them around,” Giorgetti explains, and that driving her 1947 6C is “like a box that opens an emotional chain reaction of a jump to the past”.
