Think I've got it - Fiat 130 Coupe - what a beauty

Can't be.

The film was released in 1969, the 130 Coupe wasn't launched until
1972.

_Sold_ in '72. The body for the 130 coupe (the square one) had already
been exhibited before the film was made.

A bunch of motoring favours were called in from various makers for that
film, including the Miura

And Fiat were more than helpful for the film, which is why the roof of
the factory was used for the shoot, and why they were able to literally
gridlock Turin, for real.

Well, it's on the telly now, and it's a Dino Coupe.

They defnitely have a 2300 Coupe as a mafia car later in the film.

Yes, it seems to be the Dino Coupe, another beauty :-)) looks a bit like a
small Aston v8

Thanks to all on the input - most amusing.

I think it must be
a Lancia, Fiat or perhaps an Alfa.

Well batted, Einstein.

You are not very friendly, there are other Italian Marques you know.
