The Graduate was the no-frills, driver-focused take on Alfa’s iconic Pininfarina Spider — the same elegant lines that ran for nearly three decades, distilled down to the essentials. This Series 3 example shows roughly 58k miles, finished in Alfa Red over black vinyl with a black soft top. Its 2.0-liter twin-cam four and five-speed manual deliver the analog, top-down character that’s kept these roadsters on enthusiasts’ short lists for years.
