The Alfa Romeo 155 V6 TI is an Italian touring car raced by Alfa Corse in the Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft and the International Touring Car Championship, predecessors of today's Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (DTM) Championship from 1993 to 1996. The car was powered by a very high-revving (11,500 rpm) 2.5L naturally-aspirated V6 sending power to all four wheels. 1993 would see the car's greatest success, with Nicola Larini and Alessandro Nannini at the wheel of cars 7 and 8, Alfa Corse would see 13 wins, 11 of which by Larini alone, allowing Alfa Corse to clinch their only championship in the DTM. In total, the 155 V6 TI scored 38 wins in the hands of seven drivers; Larini's 11 wins in the season as well as the 38 total wins of the 155 V6 TI remain series records.
The first livery of the casting replicates the record-breaking #8 car driven by Nicola Larini for Alfa Corse in the 1993 Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft season.
