Castagna Milano, a small Italian coachbuilder, is proposing a stylish convertible based on the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio. The styling is drastically different, with sharp creases and fang-like LED headlights. The convertible is only a rendering for now, but Castagna Milano will build it as a one-off if a customer is willing to put up the cash. The Alfa Romeo Giulia is still among the most beautiful cars available. Despite being on the market mostly unchanged since the 2016 model year, the Italian sports sedan’s styling has aged remarkably well, its smooth curves and piercing headlights creating a timeless elegance. But Italian coachbuilder Castagna Milano thinks it can improve on the Alfa Romeo’s look, whipping up a design for a new two-door convertible based on the Giulia Quadrifoglio. Castagna MilanoThe assertively styled convertible is only a render for now, but Castagna Milano says that it wants to turn it into a one-off creation if it can find an Alfa Romeo enthusiast who is willing to pay. And while the hard edges and crisp lines are quite a departure from the typical Alfa Romeo finesse, the two-door is striking enough that we think someone will raise their hand.
