Wind Design. To enlarge its market, Alfa-Romeo last month began producing a light Giulia 1300 TI (for Turismo Internazionale). Priced in Italy at $2,270, the four-passenger car is not quite the cheapest Alfa-Romeo. For several years, the company has had a plainer, less well-padded Giulia 1300 on the market at $2,080.
