It's in Italian but a picture is worth a thousand words...

PS note the original Giulia aero innovation with the stepped tail...did you notice the new Giulia has a stepped tail spoiler...only 420hps difference...that's progress

Thanks for sharing that link.  Perhaps the reopening of the museum, presented in what looks like such great condition, is as big a deal as the new Giulia.

I agree aggie57, it seems to have slipped everyone's attention. But understandably as the Giulia will represent perhaps one of the biggest and most important "renaissance" in Alfa's history. Truly survival depends on it's success.

Actually I don't like the word "renaissance" it's should be referred to as "rinascita" as also the art period should...the word is French and they had nothing to do with the soley Italian art movement, as also with Alfa Romeo's new hope, the Giulia.

Perhaps not with the "New Hope" (the white one does looks a bit like a storm trooper), but Alexandre Darracq does figure pretty prominently in the beginning 


*rinascita. cheers, learned a new word today

Looking at all this it's astounding how close we were to the Museo being busted up and the collection sold off. Thankfully not!
