Yet there it stands, parked by a trash can on Shishman Street, the V6 ticking in the heat under a psychedelic mural of a poem by the Hungarian revolutionary Sándor Petőfi. It is one of only 284 ever manufactured, which makes it three times as rare as a Lamborghini Miura. And when was the last time you bumped into one of those while nibbling on a piece of banitsa? … [Read more...] about How Alfa Romeo Waved Goodbye to Rear-Wheel Drive

At $3,500, Is This Kinda Rough 1986 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce Still A Pretty Slick Deal?
This 1986 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce QV hails from the year that the company was uncomfortably bundled up with Lancia by parent company Fiat. It arrived here in the States just nine years before Alfa pulled up stakes and left the U.S. market altogether. It would be almost 20 years before the company would be back here in force, but to date, Alfa has not offered a full drop-top here since that return. … [Read more...] about At $3,500, Is This Kinda Rough 1986 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce Still A Pretty Slick Deal?

But after driving the car more, James said “the owner decided he was going to keep it” rather than make the sale.

At $5,200, Could This 1993 Alfa Romeo 164S Turn You Into A True Enthusiast?
The engine here is a 3-litre edition of the legendary Giuseppe Busso-designed Arese V6. That sits sideways and looks pretty bad-ass with its chrome intakes and Alfa Romeo script cam cover. That cover could use some new paint, but aside from that and a warning label that’s been scratched to oblivion, it’s all pretty tidy in here. The seller says that … [Read more...] about At $5,200, Could This 1993 Alfa Romeo 164S Turn You Into A True Enthusiast?
