In June 1909, Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft (DMG) registered both a three-pointed and a four-pointed star as trademarks, but only the three-pointed star was used. To DMG, the star symbolized Gottlieb Daimler's aims for universal motorization: on land, water and in the air.

The Godfather (1972) – Iconic Cars That Defined the Classic Mafia Film The Godfather (1972) – Iconic Cars That Defined the Classic Mafia Film When thinking about The Godfather , many remember the powerful performances, the timeless dialogue, the haunting score — but one subtle yet powerful element contributed significantly to its atmosphere: the cars. The vintage vehicles that drift, roll, or screech through the film are not mere props — they are silent storytellers. They set the era, signal wealth, class, danger, even betrayal.

It has become historically significant as the last Alfa Romeo to have been fitted with an inline six-cylinder engine with twin overhead camshafts. That had been the traditional Alfa Romeo engine configuration since the 1920s, but gave way to four-cylinder engines as the factory oriented its production towards more economical mass-produced car models starting in 1950. 1962-1976 Giulia Saloon Alfa Romeo Giulia (Italian pronunciation: [ˈdʒuːlja]) is the name of three not directly related models by the Italian car manufacturer Alfa Romeo. The first is a line of sporty four-door compact executive cars (Type 105) produced from 1962 to 1978, the second is an updated, mainly up-engined Spider, Sprint and Sprint Speciale Giuliettas, and the third Giulia is a compact executive car (type 952) unveiled in 2015. 1963-196...
