Auto Avio Costruzioni Alfa 159

[a.m.alfa]

If you are a frequent Carscoop reader, you may recall a story that we wrote in October about Laurent Muller, the man who bought the rights to the Auto Avio Costruzioni trademark in 2004.

Muller’s original goal was to build a supercar based on the Ferrari 430, but with a V12 engine instead of the production version’s eight-cylinder unit.

However, as soon as he announced his plans in 2008, Ferrari filed a lawsuit against him claiming that it still owned the rights to the Auto Avio Costruzioni name, as it was used by Enzo Ferrari for a short period after leaving Alfa Romeo and before founding the car company that carries his name.

While Muller couldn’t proceed with his initial project, he decided to buy a used Alfa 159, tune its 1.75-liter turbocharged engine to 240HP and 370Nm (40HP and 30Nm up from the factory version) and give the bodywork a two-tone finish.

Now Mr. Muller has once again contacted Carscoop to show us his latest creation: since the first car was sold, he decided to make another two-tone 159, this time with dark grey bodywork complemented by matte black strips and an orange, Lamborghini-sourced paint for the roof. The car also features a 240HP version of Alfa's 1.75-liter turbocharged four.

As Muller told us in his e-mail, the legal battle with Ferrari, the outcome of which will decide who has the rights to the AAC brand, will commence in March 2012.
