Alfa Romeo Giulia 101 Series (1957–1963) Price Guide

The 101-series Giulia was the original car to carry the name — a compact, advanced saloon that laid the groundwork for everything that followed. It bridged the gap between the Giulietta and the more famous 105-series.

The Car

Produced from 1962 to 1964, the 101-series Giulia TI used a 1,570cc twin-cam four-cylinder producing 92bhp in a monocoque body with all-disc brakes and a five-speed column-shift gearbox. The TI Super version raised power to 112bhp. The Giulia TI was a practical, four-door saloon that could outperform most sports cars of the period on a twisting road — the combination of light weight, responsive engine, and disc brakes gave it an advantage that few competitors could match.

Buying

The 101-series Giulia is rare and appeals to serious Alfa collectors who value the engineering purity of the early twin-cam saloons. Rust is the primary threat. Parts share some commonality with the later 105-series, though body panels are specific to the 101. The 101 preceded the more numerous Giulia Sprint GT Veloce and its siblings, which evolved the same twin-cam engine into a range of coupes, spiders, and lightweight racers that dominated their class throughout the 1960s.
