1973 Alfa Romeo Spider on 2040-cars
Gervais, Oregon, United States
|
This is a beautiful late 1973 Spider. It is in excellent condition. Drives like a dream. Transmission is smooth with no grinding in any gear. Handles great with plenty of power. It was completely repainted several years ago and still looks great. Upgrades include HEAD LIGHT COVERS, like new. Koni shocks on all four corners and.....WEBER CARBURETORS. 5 spoke alloy wheels. The seller is in need of a more user friendly car with power steering and an air bag, so she is looking for a 91 spider. That means someone is going to get one heck of a wonderful 1973 spider.
We are not asking for top dollar, book is $17,500. However the follow things should be addressed. 1) the top looks great but has three spots that will necessitate replacement of the top. Don't get me wrong, the top will keep the rain out but it has been patched. It looks fine but I need to point out that it is not perfect. A new top installed is around $1,200 for a stafast cloth. 2) there is some torque steer due to weak trailing arm bushings. New bushings will solve that problem. Cost is about $500. 3) the dash has a large crack in the center extending to one of the vents. This car has a cloth cover and looks just fine. A plastic glue on dash cap is available and can be put on by the new owner. It's a do it yourself thing. A new dash would cost around $1,800. Those repairs would lower the value to $14,000. The reserve is less than $14,000 so bid with confidence, You are going to love this car. |

Fiat Chrysler target 850k sales in China by 2018
Sun, 11 May 2014Behind the vanguard of numerous Jeep models, two Chryslers, a smattering of Fiats and Alfa Romeos and local production through a joint venture with Guangzhou Automotive Group (GAG), Fiat Chrysler wants to increase sales in China more than six-fold by 2018. The group sold 130,000 cars in China in 2013, the aim for 2018 being 850,000 cars.
Ultimately it's expected that the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Wrangler, Renegade, the coming Grand Wagoneer and a sub-Renegade-sized crossover will either be built in or exported to the People's Republic. The Chrysler Town & Country and 300 will join the export list in 2016 and 2018 respectively, according to a report in Automotive News.
With a number of those vehicles not in production or perhaps even envisaged yet, and others not due on the local market until 2018, it will be interesting to see how Fiat Chrysler plans to achieve the target in the specified timeframe. The joint venture with GAG builds two products now, the Dodge Dart-based Fiat Viaggio launched two years ago - supposedly designed just for China - and the just-launched Fiat Ottimo, a hatchback version of the Viaggio. Fiat projected 300,000 Viagio sales in its first two years, that number has been adjusted downward to 94,000 and there doesn't appear to be an analyst alive that sees a good future for Fiat in China's overrun mainstream market. Still, last year's 130,000 group sales in China is a huge jump from 2012 sales of 66,000 units, but less than half the 300,000 units it projected.
Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.
CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over
Mon, 03 Sep 2012
After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.
