Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm Takes Quadrifoglio Ethos to Custom Heights on Nasty AL13s

This year is going to be booming for the Italian carmaker as the fresh Tonale CUV has joined its traditional Giulia sedan and Stelvio executive compact crossover SUV models, and we will also soon see the first proper supercar in more than a decade and a half emerge out of the shadows before the summer comes to an end. That's basically doubling the model range in just one year.

However, that does not mean there are not enticing Alfa Romeo models that could easily stand out in any crowd. For example, the Giulia sedan (Type 952) has been in production since 2015 and has gone through a host of improvements – most recently for the 2023 model year – along with premiering lots of derivatives.

You could snatch both gasoline and diesel-powered Giulias if you live in the right place, and the company recently introduced the 100th Anniversario model in celebration of a century of history for the high-performance Quadrifoglio branding. Now, the latest Giulia QVs are reaching the far corners of the Earth – including Australia.

Speaking of exotic territories, the good folks over at Anaheim, California-based AL13 Wheels Design + Technik acknowledge they do not work too often with the Alfa Romeo brand. But when they do, it seems they strike an absolute flagship pose – and there's no need to take our word for granted, as we have a proper example embedded in the first post below.

In case you didn't recognize it, that is an Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm rocking the 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6 with 533 hp and 600 Nm (443 lb-ft), a splendid green paintjob, plus some menacingly dark details. Some of them are simply made out of exposed carbon fiber – like the aerodynamic kit. Others only look like OEM fitment – and those would be the three-piece AL13 R110.6 alloy wheels dressed in full gloss brushed Triple Dark Tint attire!

Interestingly, they were not made for an Alfa Giulia GTAm residing in America but rather for one belonging to a Japanese customer by the Lager Corporation (part of the Bond Group). If you would instead check out something that resides within the great US of A and also stands out in any crowd (albeit we bet they are vastly differently targeted), then surely the Los Angeles, California-based forged wheel experts over at Forgiato Designs know how to stir a pot of outrageousness with just a hint of aftermarket greatness.

As such, alongside 713 Motoring, they prepared a purple-hued set of slant-lipped Forgis for musician Aaron May and his latest Mercedes-Maybach GLS luxury SUV. Never mind the Escalade-V in the background; that one is only sporting black Forgiatos…
