Alfa Romeo has revealed a singular version of its ultra-exclusive 33 Stradale supercar.

The Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale “Perla Nera” (or “Black Pearl” in English) was revealed at the Alfa Romeo Museum Monday, Sept. 28.

Unfortunately for Canadians, the museum is all the way in Italy, but the automaker was kind enough to share photos of this black-as-night beauty, which you can check out below – no flight tickets to Milan required. The museum is in Arese, just outside Milan.

About the 33 Stradale

Alfa Romeo’s 33 Stradale is a multi-million-dollar supercar that is limited to just 33 units worldwide.

It is the first project developed by Bottega Alfa Romeo, which is part of BottegaFuoriserie, the centre of excellence dedicated to the most exclusive creations from Alfa Romeo and Maserati.

The car was inspired by the 1967 Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 Stradale.

It features cutting-edge technology, including a carbon-fibre monocoque, active suspension and dihedral doors, and is powered by a twin-turbo 3-litre V6 engine producing 630 hp.

The car accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in less than three seconds and has a top speed of 207 mph (333 km/h).

About the ‘Perla Nera’

The singular all-black car was named and registered by its owner.

It was developed around the vision of its owner, whom Alfa Romeo called a passionate collector and profound connoisseur of the automotive world.

It was created as a result of continuous communication between the client and the team at Alfa Romeo Centro Stile.

The car’s matte-finish carbon fibre is an integral part of its design language. Up front, for example, the carbon fibre helps highlight the 33 Stradale’s V-shaped motif.

Alfa Romeo said the carbon-fibre elements were laid by hand within a mould and then positioned to follow the contours of the surfaces to enhance their shapes and volumes.

The automaker said meticulous attention was taken at every stage of the car’s assembly.

The car also rides on exclusive all-black wheels.

The dark design continues on the inside, which features carbon-fibre elements and full Alcantara upholstery.

The seat, by the way, was developed around the owner’s physique, having undergone dedicated fitting sessions.

If you happen to be around Milan, the car will be on display at the Alfa Romeo Museum until Oct. 18.
