Originally Prototipi Bizzarrini s.r.l., the name was changed to Bizzarrini S.p.A. in 1966. The physical legacy of the marque is scarce and fragmentary, save for a few extremely well-known and incalculably valuable cars. Notable models include the 5300 GT Strada and 5300 GT Spyder S.I. the P538S. Attempts to bring back the Bizzarrini name resulted in a number of concept cars in the 2000s.
