Alfa Romeo Spyder Quadrifoglio 1986, Excellent Condition, Low Mileage on 2040-cars

You are bidding on an absolutely beautiful 1986 Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio Spider that is in excellent condition with 73k miles. The car runs and drive absolutely beautifully. It fires right up and the throttle is extremely responsive, the brakes are powerful and has a firm pedal, the suspension is very tight and the car handles beautifully.  This car has a spectacular look that grabs everyone's attention.

 This car includes the original factory hard top which has rarely been on the car and looks fantastic.  Along with the hardtop, I have the original Alfa floor mats, the original Alfa bra and toolkit and owner's manual.  The leather is in very nice condition – no tears, cracks, fading or pulled stitching.  The dash looks great (no cracks).  The carpet is the original and in very nice condition, there is some staining of the carpet in the trunk.  I believe that the Robins vinyl top is original, and is still in decent shape.  The A/C does not work (blower fan does not run), but everything is there if you would want to get it back in operation. Likewise the defrost fan is not operating.   All of the gauges, signals, and electric windows work well.  The car has an aftermarket Nakamichi radio/cassette with CD in the trunk and four Kenwood speakers.

This is an extremely reliable car. The engine starts right up and runs smoothly with excellent oil pressure.  The transmission shifts smoothly in all gears and the clutch feels great and is not exhibiting any slipping whatsoever. The four disc brakes stop the car smoothly and in a straight line. Steering and suspension are tight.

I have maintained this car since I have owned it and know the previous owner who babied the car while she owned it.  I have replaced the exhaust (factory specs), four new tires (OE size Bridgestone) and four Bilstein shocks.  The body is in excellent condition with no rust anywhere.  There are couple of small dings. The paint is in good, but not perfect condition – a little hazing in a couple of areas.  This is a great driving Alfa that is truly turn-key and can just be driven and enjoyed.  It is clear from the condition of the car that this has been an adult owned vehicle and has been kept out of snow and in a garage.

Classic Alfa Romeos (and especially Quads with the factory hardtops) are getting more and more collectible and are quickly on the rise. This car earns lots of thumbs up everywhere I go and is a pleasure to drive.  If you are looking for a very reliable, well maintained low mileage Alfa that look and runs great and don’t want to spend $10,000, this car is a great choice.  I have set a low reserve so that it will sell in this first auction.  Don't hesitate to ask if you have questions.

Fiat reconsidering Mazda-based Alfa Romeo roadster? [w/poll]

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

Alfa giveth and Alfa taketh away. With apologies to Job (he has gone through a lot, after all), that's how things are looking at the Italian automaker - whether it's the promise of new products or its impending return to the North American market. But it's especially true when it comes to new roadsters.
While Alfa Romeo is expected to unveil the 4C Spider at the Geneva Motor Show this week, reports are now suggesting that its other roadster project is being called into question. That project is a joint venture between Fiat and Mazda, which was set to produce a version of its next MX-5 Miata as an Alfa Romeo, and was even changing the design to accommodate Alfa's requirements.
Now it appears, however, that the whole project in doubt. The problem seems to stem from Sergio Marchionne's pronouncements that, as long as he's in charge, there won't be an Alfa Romeo built outside of Italy.

Chrysler appoints new heads of Alfa Romeo and Ram

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

Chrysler has announced to two key appointments to its senior leadership, both of them taking immediate effect. First up is Reid Bigland, who has been named head of the Alfa Romeo brand for North America. Bigland has served until now as head of the Ram Truck brand, a portfolio he now hands over to Robert Hegbloom, who had served until now as its director.
As a result of the appointments, both Bigland and Hegbloom will take up seats on Chrysler's NAFTA Leadership Team, and Bigland will also join the Fiat Chrysler Group Executive Council - the highest decision-making body in the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles empire.
As per Sergio Marchionne's leadership style, Bigland will continue to serve in two major capacities, maintaining his role as president and CEO of Chrysler Canada. Other senior executives who hold multiple key portfolios include Harald Wester (who serves as the group's Chief Technology Officer and also overseas Alfa Romeo, Maserati and Abarth), Olivier Francois (group Chief Marketing Officer and head of the Fiat brand) and Michael Manley (head of the Asia-Pacific region and the Jeep brand).
