Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Drivers side exterior door handle needs to be replaced (part included in sale, rear bumper is cosmetically damaged, speedometer works when it wants to, very small hole in passenger and drivers seat, dash cut for aftermarket stereo, SPICA light stays lit and car is hard to start due to a custom made fuel pump return by my mechanic. Once the car is started the fuel pressure is fine and the car will run to hell and back. Easy to start when engine is warm. Car has aftermarket driver side rear view mirror."

Overall the car is in Good condition in my honest opinion. It has been in my family for about 4 years now. The last 2-3 years were spent in WV and FL. I just recently had the car repaired, inspected, and titled here in Virginia to get her road worthy again. The rear pinion seal had gone, and it was leaking fuel. I had my auto mechanic at DIA Automotive in Virginia Beach, VA replace the rear pinion seal, all fuel lines, fuel filters, and fuel pump. There is a fuel pump return for these cars that he was unable to find a part for so he custom made one. It's a little hard to start because of the custom fuel return, but it runs great once it cranks over. The car has new spark plugs, a bunch of new parts in the trunk most of which I do not know what all of them are, but there is a new door handle (the drivers side is broken like most of these cars I have seen around). The wheels on this car are beautiful, and it has an Abarth exhaust. The top looks great and I've had no leaks since I took it out of storage, but it hasn't been driven in the rain either. I drive it 1-2 times a week mostly Sundays. The car will come with the toneau cover, and the Virginia inspection sticker is less than 30 days old. The car also comes with ALL of the original service documents, owners manual, and a few other random items the previous owners held on to.

I have added a stereo to the car (Pioneer DEH-4400HD,and infinity reference 6x9's in sealed boxes behind the seats The antenna works, but looks like it was broken off.... the car receives all the local stations though). The interior on the car is a solid 7.5 out of 10 in my personal opinion. The exterior is about a 9. I get more compliments driving this car than I do my 2004 WRX STi. My problem is I am 6'7'' and my girlfriend is 6'0'' we can't keep this car it's too difficult for either of us to drive regularly.

The car was gifted to me by my parents. They bought it in PA while they were living in WV, had it titled in FL when they moved down there, and I had it titled here in VA. Title in hand ready to go.

Please message me for any specific questions or further details. I can take pictures or videos of whatever you like. This car is beautiful and I hate to see it go, but honestly I'm not at a point that I can afford a fancy toy car like this and I'm just physically way too big for it. It has less than 58,000 miles on it right now I just listed the mileage higher because I do drive it around still and will until the day it is sold. It's not comfortable on my long legs and knees, but the waves, and smiles I get from people with the top down are too much fun. This car has TONS of life left in it and cruises on the interstate, lights up your face with a smile for every on/off ramp, and is going to make whoever buys it very happy! Please don't be afraid to ask me anything as I'm not trying to hide any details about the car.

Upon completion of the auction a minimum of a $500 deposit must be made, and I will not ship the car and sign over the title until I have received full payment for the vehicle. BUYER will be responsible for shipping or picking up the vehicle here in Virginia Beach VA. I will not pay for or be responsible for trailer transport of the vehicle, but I am willing to drive it up to 85 miles from Virginia Beach VA. US BIDDERS ONLY UNLESS YOU HAVE SHIPPING EXPERIENCE & PLANS.

Alfa Romeo 8C, Maserati Quattroporte and Granturismo models recalled over rust fears

Mon, 20 May 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced Maserati and Alfa Romeo are recalling certain Quattroporte, Granturismo and 8C models over potentially faulty tie rod ends. According to NHTSA, 2005-2008 Quattroporte, 2008 Granturismo and 2008 8C units may have been assembled with tie rod ends that have insufficient corrosion protection. As such, the components may rust, weaken and potentially fail. If that happens, the driver could lose control of the vehicle and cause an accident.
Maserati and Alfa Romeo will contact owners and replace the tie rod end assemblies once the recall gets underway in June. All told, 7,438 vehicles are impacted by the recall. You can read the full NHTSA notice below for more information.

Marchionne to make Alfa Romeo a separate company within Fiat

Mon, 28 Apr 2014

According to a report in Automotive News that quotes "people familiar with the matter," the next big play in Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne's plan for Alfa Romeo is to break it off from Fiat Group Automobiles and set it up as a separate company within the Fiat empire, giving it the same structure as Ferrari and Maserati. The idea, say the sources, is that a transparent, standalone Alfa Romeo that has to justify its every move could clearly prove its success in the public financial statements it would have to report, finally achieving Marchionne's aim of making Alfa Romeo "a credible business proposition."
That, of course, assumes that Alfa Romeo will make a success of it. The brand hasn't made a profit in any year of Marchionne's decade at the helm; sales last year fell to numbers not seen in almost half a century and its new product offensive might not include the two vehicles currently responsible for 99 percent of its sales. We're told that the brand's six new models will begin arriving in 2016 - a roadster, a midsize sedan and large sedan, a compact SUV and large SUV, and a large coupe.
Marchionne aims to expand Alfa's global appeal in several ways, the first by stressing that they are Italian products that 'belong' to Italy. This is the stance that appears to have put the kibosh on the roadster twinned with the coming Mazda MX-5/Miata. Alfa Romeos will all be made in their home country, and if they take off they'll help bandage Fiat's problem with underused plant capacity, a bugbear that is just as problematic culturally and politically as financially. Top-tier trims would use V6 engines developed by Ferrari, and global access would get a boost by selling Alfa Romeos in Jeep's 1,700 international dealerships.
