Up for sale is a 1991 Alfa Romeo 164L with a desirable 5 speed combination. It has spent last 5 years in enclosed storage and has just recently been revived.
It has practically every option available that year model including Rear Heated AND Reclining Rear Seats! This Alfa Romeo 164 hes everything you can wish for:
-Leather Interior
-Heated Front AND Rear Seats

This Afla originally belonged to the owner of Alfa Performance Connection in Orange County, California and acquired by the previous owner in February 2003 with 131,000 miles on the clock. The new owner continued to maintain it religiously while putting on 30,000 miles. In 2008 the new owner had moved out of the area and had the car stored in an enclosed garage until just recently. The car just received fresh oil and filter, new plugs and new battery. Due to religious maintenance this car is in very good condition even after sitting on side lines for over 5 years.
CAR HAS CLEAN CALIFORNIA TITLE
NOTE TO CALIFORNIA BUYERS: The car was not declared "non-operational" from the time it was stored and as such there are DMV back fees due. According to previous owner the amount is close to $1000. Registration, smog and any back fees are responsibility of the buyer.
NOTE TO ALL NON-CALIFORNIA BUYERS: The back fees due are only if you plan to register and operate this car in the State of California.
There is over $8000 in service receipts for work that has been performed by the previous owner. This does not include work done by APC such as engine rebuild, installation of S Cams, etc. I will only list what I have proof of:

The Alfa currently has just under 161,000 miles so the timing belt has just over 10,000 miles. Thats another 20,000 miles before the next change. There are receipts included with the car for all the work listed.
Pros:
- Religiously maintained and has documented history
- Solid Body
- Leather Interior in Excellent Condition, Back Seat is Like New
- Sunroof works perfectly in both modes
- A/C Stepper Motors, Auto Climate Control work including the digital indicators
- Power Windows, Power Mirrors, Power Door Locks work
- Front Seats move forward and back and recline
- Comes with extra set of 164 Q/S Tire and wheel set in very good condition
- Comes with Original Complete Owner Manual Pouch/Books/Manuals
- Headliner Tight (not droopy)
- Operation Rear Window Shades
- Runs and Drives Great, Does Not Overheat - Temperature stays around 175
- Car cover (worn)
- Original AirBox - Car currently runs K&N high flow air filter
- VERY COOL Momo Steering Wheel
- Paint is in very good condition
- Dash is like new, no cracks
- All buttons seem to operate
- Exterior moldings are in great shape and not warped
Cons:
- Brake are not working. Previous owner replaced all fuses - problem has been pinpointed to the relay under the dash.
- Driver's Side Window regulator is making noise but the window does go up and down
- Tires on the car are dry cracked (look in to Pros for the additional set of tires and wheels)
- Minor Ding on the Hood
- Minor Rust area above windshield (surface rust about 1" across) treated but not painted by the previous owner
I would recommend replacing the tires with the included set and replacing the fuel filter - it was not replaced by the previous owner after taking the car out of storage.

We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.

On average, Fiat dealers have only been selling about 17 cars a month.
We've been wondering for some time how Fiat dealers in North America have been getting along with just one model range in their showrooms up until recently. Franchisees spent millions building, stocking and manning sleek new 'studio' showrooms, only to have but a single model to sell, the cherubic 500. And even with its many derivatives, the Cinquecento is still an inexpensive model with its attendant lower margins. Perhaps it should come as no surprise then, that just 45 percent of US Fiat dealers are said to be profitable.

Episode #360 of the Autoblog podcast is here, and this week, Dan Roth and Jeff Ross discuss the 2015 Ford Mustang, reports of the latest plan to bring Alfa Romeo back to the US, Chevrolet leaving Europe and Holden closing down in Australia, and the price barrier that's holding down potential EV buyers. Dan also interviewed Jacques Brent, Ford's marketing manager for the 2015 Mustang and Sebastian Ruta and Joe Oh from Blipshift. We start with what's in the garage and finish up with some of your questions, and for those of you who hung with us live on our UStream channel, thanks for taking the time.
