Alfa Romeo DTM Style
Alfa Romeo DTM Style
Style of this modification is different from what we use to present on our pages. Sporting character, which can be find in majority of tuning styles, is little different in case of Marsiglio Car. Don’t expect jewelly discs, massive bumpers, look at this car with eyes of lover of fast wheels. DTM races – that’s what the Italian tuner was inspired by. This Alfa Romeo was modified into the shape of full-blooded racing car. The word racing describes the purpose and the essence of this modification.
The ExteriorSuch over-elaborate modification of exterior of a production car could not be seen for a long time. First to catch the attention is shifty white-red paintwork complemented with plenty of stickers of sponsoring and tuning-engaged companies. The character of race is fully present here. Massive front bumper with integrated robust opening of interesting design make us feel, that purpose of this modification is profound. The filling made of black expanded metal is a matter of course. In connection with braking efficiency improvement, at the sides of bumper were implemented openings a la shark gills – their function is to bring the air to rear brakes. In the lower part of bumper is located a large diffuser, which handles the correction of flowing air under the car.
Maybe the most interesting change in the front part of the car is removal of the typical Alfa Romeo mask in exchange for longer hood. If this was the right step made by tuners – this is a matter of opinion. First „suspicious“ thing on this car were the front headlights. I don’t remember, Alfa Romeo used to equip its cars with lights of these dimensions and shapes. The tuners knew well what they are doing, and thanks to his initiative, the original lights were replaced by headlights from Mazda 6. Smart or useless? Depends on ones taste again. Also the front hood was endowed by two vents a la Mitsubishi EVO embedded in nicely shaped projection on the hood. It is really difficult to find words to characterizes side sills Marsiglio Car. Such number of openings, which handle the intake of cold air and off-take of hot air from and to the disc brakes, cannot be found on every car. The seriousness of this racing body kit starts to be evident. Together six openings conduct the hot air off the front brakes and four openings serves the purpose of bringing the cold air to the rear discs. The top of the milk are two round exhaust tips embedded in the rear part of these sills. The rear part of the Alfa Romeo 156 is not worse than the rest of the bodywork. Huge dark diffuser implemented into the rear bumper strikes the eyes and indicates, that resemblance with DMT cars is not an accident. Two more openings were added to take the hot air away from rear brakes. Pleasantly shaped bumper really fits the robust rear part of the car. the cover of the trunk is characteristic with adjustable razor wing, which is known from various racing cars. Certainly, it‘s not there just to show off ;-). All these parts of the body kit (the bumpers and side sills) continuously interlock with the aid of extended fenders, thanks to which the car gained 10 cm at every side. That’s not bad. In order to give the whole the final jazz, the popular system of vertical door opening (aka Lambo Style Doors) was installed. Do you need anything more?
The whole is finalized with stylish racing 17-spoke 19-inch alloy wheels shoed in low-profile tires Yokohama, behind them are disk brakes with holes TarOx B350 with 348x26 mm in front and 340x26 mm in the rear. The last ingredient is the sporting suspension, which consists of springs Eibach and dampers with shock-absorbers Bilstein. This system lowers the clearance height by nice 35 mm. This is professional attitude! InteriorAlso the interior was Italian-affected. Its modification is work of native specialist Simoni Racing, which really enjoyed the interior adjustment of this beau. Red and black colors (mostly leather) are dominating the whole interior. This pair of colors can be found on adjusted sporting seats Simoni Racing and three-leg sporting wheel X-Race and on the gearshift lever handle made by the same manufacturer, and there are also new carpets. This two-color combination is supplemented by chromic elements – gear lever, pedal set and fire-extinguisher.

The marque Alfa Romeo is one of the most important names in the history of the automobile..."Alfa" (Sociètà Anonima Lombardo Fabbrica Automobili) was founded in the year 1910. The company was given the name Alfa Romeo after Mr. Nicolo Romeo bought the firm in the year 1915.

Logo of Alfa Romeo from year 1909 - Today
Alfa Romeo started building small automobiles for "everyday" passenger transportation. In the early 1920'ies Alfa Romeo also started engineering and building sports- and racing-cars.The automobiles built by Alfa Romeo were all technically refined and far ahead of their competitors; New inventions and technical discoveries were engineered, tested and introduced in the production models right away. A good example is the introduction of the double overhead camshafts (DOHC), all Alfa Romeo engines from 1929 up to today are fitted with this superior overhead valve operating principle.
During the thirties and in the end of the forties of the ninetieth century Alfa Romeo was the dominant marque in racing competitions. Alfa Romeo racingcars were able to win all racing competitions which they competed in like Le Mans and the Mille Miglia. In the early thirties Enzo Ferrari was racing for "scruderia"Alfa Romeo and was promoted to be team manager in the late thirties. Alfa Romeo decided to put an end to the racing activities in 1938 and Enzo Ferrari decided to start his own racingcar business in 1940...
Before the second world war Alfa Romeo produced primarily rolling chassis as technical base for passenger automobiles. These rolling chassis were in most cases fitted with body designs created by the famous Italian bodywork artists like Touring and Zagato.The rolling chassis type being manufactured by Alfa Romeo during these prewar years was the 6C. The 6C chassis/engine combination through the years: 1750/55 bhp. (from 1929), 1900/68 bhp. (from 1933), 2300/68-95 bhp. (from 1934) 2500/ 87-110 bhp. (from 1939).Next to the Alfa Romeo 6C chassis/engine-combination Alfa Romeo introduced the 8C in the year 1931. The 8C chassis/ engine combination was primarily used for racing- and sportscars. The 8C engine featured eight cylinders-in-line, dry-sump engine lubrication and a blower (compressor) giving the engine a power output of 150 bhp.!All Alfa Romeo models built before the second world war were fitted with the steering wheel on the right hand side of the car.
After the second world war Alfa Romeo started producing the 6C 2500 again which had been in production for over ten years already. Just in time the people in charge of Alfa Romeo realized that the industry had changed and that the market for large, expensive "tailor made" automobiles was increasing rapidly.To survive they decided to reconsider their position and started preparing for standardized industrial automobile production as other manufacturers did before following the ideas of Henry Ford.
In the year 1949 the first result of the new Alfa Romeo era saw the light of day; the Alfa Romeo 1900!The Alfa Romeo 1900 was the first Alfa Romeo built with a unitary bodywork construction (without separate chassis). The car was also the first fully industrial -mass- produced car to come out of the Alfa Romeo factory. In the early fifties of the ninetieth century Alfa Romeo started to compete in racing-events again...racing their old prewar competition-cars and WINNING with Fangio behind the wheel!Soon thereafter Ferrari, Jaguar and Mercedes were back in winning position.
1954 was the year of introduction of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta series. The Alfa Romeo 1900 was still in production then but production was ceased in the year 1958. The Giulietta series included some very fine classics like the Bertone Sprint, Giulietta SS (Sprint Speciale) and the Pinin Farina Convertible.The year 1962 saw the introduction of the Giulia series with a handsome, modern and sporty, four-door saloon, a Giulia Spider Veloce (successor of the Alfa Romeo Duetto), a Giulia GTV coupe model by Bertone and an impressive Zagato 1300 junior. The Giulietta SS was prolonged and renamed Giulia SS...
All Giulietta and Giulia models were characterized by their unitary bodywork construction, their powerfull aluminum alloy engines, double overhead camshafts and five speed gearboxes (with floor shift!), excellent roadholding capabilities and excellent body designs...The post war glory days of Alfa Romeo...

There is no other marque in automobile history (Mercedes Benz comes close) with a more important sportscar and racing history as Alfa Romeo. Regretfully it was that in the 1980'ies not very much was left that symbolized that great history.The cars coming out of the factory those days (Alfetta series) were more or less dull (many saloons), not very inspiring - except the Alfetta GTV, quality was poor and no one at Alfa Romeo was thinking of racing anymore for decades...
The Alfetta series was not the bestseller the Giulia has been for Alfa Romeo. Alfa Romeo did have a potential best seller; the Alfasud (a tremendous driver with boxer-engine!)... over one million were sold but overall quality was so bad, the car already rusted during production, that the Alfa Romeo name was crushed. In the mid-eighties Alfa Romeo was ready to shut the factory gates as it was reluctantly taken over by Fiat. It took Fiat/ Alfa Romeo almost fifteen years to rebuilt the old Alfa Romeo image by good marketing and by building better Alfa Romeo cars every generation. It started with the Alfa 33 (with boxer-engine), 75 and 164 (both with rear-wheel drive). Then the new generation 145, 146 and 155 followed (all front wheel drive) Specials were introduced at the same time which hit bulls eye; the GTV and the Spider!The third generation put Alfa Romeo really back on the map of modern motoring; the Alfa Romeo 156, the 166 and the 147. All well designed by Alfa Romeo former chief designer Walther de Silva.
Now the Fiat group (Fiat, Ferrari, Alfa Romeo, Lancia) is working together with General motors (a.o. Opel and Saab as European GM companies).
