fiat 850 (#3)
I know I'm cruel, because Fiat used quite similar backgrounds for their press photos in those years, but you have to keep on searching as it is not an 850.

This is the Fiat (now Euphon) shooting theatre in Strada della Manta, Turin. It's till used today and is very common for Fiat pictures. I've my idea but... I must wait Limo.

Yes, it is. Did that little orange reflection on the wet pavement help you?

Yes, #3 is the Fiat 124 Sport Coupé.

Three invisibles left. Come on, at least one isn't that hard.  ;)

aaargh, it was a near miss indeed, it's even a Fiat 124...didn't get the hint.
nr.7 reminds me of Treser Hunter picture.. but i guess it will be a 4x4?

Some general hints:
The unsolved cars are contemporary with the solved ones, they all have a rather sporting image, and for at least one of the unsolved puzzle pictures it could help if you played car quartet when those cars were new.

You certainly have got the right picture. It is an Alfa Romeo, but neither a Giulia nor from 1962. Locked for you to find the right model.

In fact, it is a 2000 GT Veloce, as one can tell by the "scudetto" formed only by the horizontal chrome strips. But I'll accept this answer.  ;)

That leaves the two black/white pictures to be solved.

One hint for the last one: it is considered as sporting as the other ones, but it isn't a coupe or convertible.

Is #4 a Lotus Cortina, perhaps?
