What is a Quadrifoglio?

Simply, in Italian, a four-leaf clover. It's a symbol that dates back to 1923 and identifies only the highest performance Alfa Romeos. As the story goes, Alfa Romeo built four race cars for the 1923 Targa Florio road race. One of the cars was driven by Alfa pilote Ugo Sivocci, who was actually a very talented driver but was in the midst of a bad luck streak. He painted a white field with a green four-leaf clover on the front of his Alfa Romeo race car to ward away any further misfortune. While his teammate's car came in second, his four-leaf clover-adorned racer finished first, giving Alfa Romeo its first international victory.
