Model history:

In 1965, an improved version of the Avanti was launched, the Avanti 2. Several designers teamed up to create a combination of American muscle car and European luxury car. The Avanti 2 was produced from 1965 to 1982, with a total of only about 2200 units made during that period. However, Avanti did not only focus on the design, but also improved the technical features. This way Avanti managed to deliver a great combination of looks and performance to its customers.
