love the Amaranto red. i'd urge you to consider the dark blue, i think it's blue olandese, and the prugna (plum) color of Gary74tii's Giulia. any of those three is great.

Here's AR-525 Prugna. The literal translation is plum, which would be not too far off for a lighter colored example of the fruit. Raspberry would probably be closer in most people's minds or a mellow pink. This is a rare color because it was introduced in '72 late in the Giulia production run so depending on how original you want to go, it may not be acceptable for an early Giulia. Truly a '70's "period" color and I understand it is stretching the boundaries of "red". It's very cool though that Alfa had such a diverse color palette that often defied categorization into primary colors. Unfortunately, manufacturers today seem to have lost that uniqueness in the name of optimizing profit through reducing variation.

Here's a link with more pics of my Prugna Super: Belgium to Tacoma...

Remember that the shade of red depends on the base coat
