Marc Deschamps, Bertone's design guide after Marcello Gandini, was the author of an original proposal for a GT derived from Alfa 6 (V6 engine, 2492cc). The car, presented in Geneva in 1983, was christened the Delfino. The proportions and lines respected the tradition and standard canons of a coupé. It is interesting to note how some solutions were taken up on the Citroen XM and the Subaru SVX.
