Can anyone enlighten med about what was the special regarding the "Maratone" and the numbers of Spiders that was produced

I found the information about the "la Maratone Version on these French web paged.
I think it could be interesting to find out weather it was only a label version, or there was a real difference. If the Maratone really existed, or some misinterpretation from other models

ALFA ROMEO Spider de 4e série - Identification Guide d'achat Motorlegend.com


Les versions américaines présentent plusieurs spécificités : feux de position, faisant office de répétiteurs latéraux, sur les pare-chocs, troisième feu arrière sur la malle arrière, monogrammes aux positions inversés (les appellations étant par ailleurs différentes), etc.
Le Spider série 4 sera décliné en plusieurs séries spéciales. Sur le marché français est lancée en 1991 la série « Beauté » ; caractérisée par sa livrée bleue et blanche (avec intérieur blanc, roues blanches et capote bleue), elle est produite à 120 exemplaires. Deux autres séries spéciales sont présentées aux Etats-Unis : la Maratona (1992) et la Commemorative Edition (1994), produite à 190 exemplaires. Elles bénéficient notamment d’une présentation intérieure plus soignée

En très bon état, une Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 Europa se négocie environ 8600 euros.

I like that valuation.

the US did get 150 Maratona's but they where GTV6 models, and much earlier than 92

Thanks for you replay.
It seems as the French ,has got something mixed up.

Her are some pictures of the French special "Beaute"
It was made in connection with the French women magazine "Votre Beaute" for the celebration of the Fashion Couturier Jean-Louis Scherrer.
It was white with marine blue button and blue soft top. Interiors was those to reflect the colors outside, white leather and marine blue mats.
there was a plaque wit the number besides the clock.
15 inch dialing rims painted white.
Its certainly a color combination that catch the eye
