Stellantis Heritage is bringing the Alfa Romeo 4C back into the spotlight, this time with a motorsport twist that pays homage to one of the brand’s most iconic drivers, Nicola Larini. Following the release of the exclusive 4C Unica, Stellantis Heritage is now introducing three unique Alfa 4C Collezione GT "Nicola Larini" editions as part of their "Reloaded by Creators" series.

These cars aren’t brand-new builds but carefully selected, custom-spec models, revived to celebrate Larini’s legacy and his memorable 1993 DTM championship in the Alfa Romeo 155 V6 TI. In partnership with Larini, who worked closely with Alfa’s design team, each model wears distinctive livery inspired by classic Alfa shades from the ’70s.

The cars come in Pine Green, Plum Red, and Ochre Yellow—a subtle nod to the legendary Giulia GT colors. Alfa Romeo Design Project Manager Alessandro Maccolini, the original designer of the 4C, personally updated these hues to flow seamlessly with the 4C’s styling.

White bumpers at the front and rear, a vintage Alfa emblem graphic on the hood, and body-colored wheels add to the retro flair, while Larini’s autograph adorns the hood and dashboard as a final touch. Inside, the cabins are all about focus and function. Black microfiber with color-matched accents reduces glare and keeps the race-inspired theme alive.

The special 4C retains its carbon fiber monocoque and the signature 1.75-liter turbocharged engine with 237 horsepower—no mechanical tweaks, just pure Alfa. Larini himself praises the Alfa  Romeo 4C Collezione GT, calling it one of the easiest high-speed cars he’s driven and a future classic bound to thrill its lucky owners.

Stellantis Heritage will directly certify and sell each car in this rare collection, thereby enhancing its exclusivity. These Alfa  Romeo 4C Collezione GT special editions, despite their undisclosed pricing, will undoubtedly draw collectors who desire to possess a piece of Alfa Romeo's racing legacy—a tribute to a legend, preserved for the future.
