This 1969 Alfa Romeo GTV 1750 has a very interesting history, originally owned by the Malaysian diplomat to The Netherlands. His son brought the car to Canada in the 1970s, and it has been an important part of my own life for the past 13 years. This car culminated my obsession with Alfa Romeos, and now most of my free time is spent racing them as part of the VARAC racing group. Unfortunately, with my limited time these days, I have to sell my beloved GTV. It is a great car and someone out there will love it and baby it.
Car History I have an incredible amount of documentation on the history of this car, dating back to the original purchase and service records. This car was originally purchased by the Malaysian diplomat to The Netherlands (*see photo of original dealer service booklet). The original owner to this car is a member of a prominent family from Malaysia. I have further detail on the car having spoken with the original owner at length through emails earlier this year. The car was purchased in The Hague, The Netherlands and resided there for several years. He was part of the Rob Slotemaker racing school (*see photo of decal on rear windshield) and had spent some time at the Zandvoort race track. A car with the same exact decal in the same location on the car was restored and documented on the Alfaholics website (Google "Rob Slotemaker Alfaholics" - see first link). When the original owner went to university in Canada, the car was shipped to Montreal, Quebec, wherein he drove it for 4 years. After graduation, he reluctantly had to sell the car before moving overseas. Many of the original service receipts/records are still with the car (*see photos) showing everything from oil changes to new tires to major services. One important thing to note is that the original owner had extra gauges installed on the front dash, angled towards the driver. This was done shortly after the purchase of the car. Service records indicate that the car spent time in New Jersey around the mid 1970s to the mid 1980s. The car was purchased by an Alfa Romeo Club enthusiast in the 1990s. I purchased the car from him in 2002. Personal History with this car I first saw this car when I was 14 at Mosport Racetrack and immediately fell in love. I continuously followed this exact car to Alfa Romeo club meets. During a weak moment, the previous owner decided to sell this car to me when I was 17. I babied this car the best I could for the past 13 years. I met my wife in Dairy Queen while driving this car! However, unfortunately in the past 3-4 years this car has seen little to no use (children!). It has sat in my garage while I work on my Alfa Romeo race car beside it. My small amount of free time is mostly spent on racing these days, and I am unable to give this car the love that she deserves. Car Condition BODY:

Alfa Romeo's limited Quadrifoglio Carbon Editions start at $86,470 this fall
Fri, Oct 6 2023Alfa Romeo, which is generally fairly conservative about offering upscale “special” editions of its mainstream cars, is giving its customers in North America an exclusive opportunity to order a limited-edition 2024 Giulia or Stelvio Quadrifoglio Carbon Edition. Limited to 130 units combined (!), the Carbon models are essentially a bit of decoration: on the exterior, thereÂ’s a carbon fiber V scudetto grille, mirror caps, gold calipers and black badging. Interior enhancements include sporty interior design touches, such as exclusive red leather sport seats and carbon fiber interior trim. Paint color options are Vulcano Black, Alfa Red or Rosso Etna. Engine specs are borrowed from the recently updated standard models, featuring a turbocharged 2.9-liter six-cylinder engine with 505 horsepower, routed through an eight-speed automatic transmission and standard adaptive suspension. This suspension technology is designed to read the road and quickly adjust shock valving to deliver greater handling characteristics at speed while maintaining a comfortable ride. The models will begin arriving in Alfa Romeo dealerships this quarter with a manufacturerÂ’s suggested retail price (MSRP) of $86,470 for Giulia sedan and $93,870 for Stelvio SUV, including a destination fee of $1,595. “WeÂ’re excited to offer our North American consumers further customization with the new Alfa Romeo Carbon Edition, which enhances our sporty-Italian style with a unique and head-turning appearance on top of an unrivaled driving experience,” said Larry Dominique, head of Alfa Romeo, North America. “This limited edition elevates the passion of Alfa Romeo with a beautifully crafted design combined with the unsurpassed performance from our legendary Quadrifoglio models.” Related video: 2020 Alfa Romeo #Giulia Quadrifoglio vs. 2013 Dodge #Challenger SRT8 392 #exhaust comparison
Alfa Romeo to launch eight new products by 2018, increase sales to 400K units
Tue, 06 May 2014
Alfa Romeo will go back to being the brand people admire, according to CEO Harald Wester.
After a few streams of news on the various brands in the Fiat Chrysler family, here's the deluge we've been waiting for - Alfa Romeo. The legendary Italian brand is being pointed towards a renaissance, as shown by the brand's five-year plan.
Alfa Romeo franchises 86 dealers across North America
Tue, Jun 10 2014Alfa Romeo's return to North America has been a long time coming, which has given us plenty of time to wonder: Will the now-merged Fiat-Chrysler let Fiat dealers sell Alfas, or will the shapely Italians be available in Maserati dealers? The answer we've been waiting for? Both. Auburn Hills has just released the list of 86 initial dealers that will be authorized to sell the Alfa Romeo 4C (Autoblog senior editor Seyth Miersma is driving one today in San Francisco, incidentally), setting the groundwork for a larger Alfa Romeo lineup to follow. The list includes 82 dealers across 33 states and four more in Canada. Though the vast majority are expanding upmarket from Fiat studios, a few are branching downmarket from Maserati dealers - not a one of them, in case you were wondering, having expanded from a Ferrari showroom. The highest concentration of dealers will be found in California, Texas and Florida, but while you might have thought Little Italy would be a prime location, there won't be a single dealer in Manhattan. Not in any of the five boroughs, in fact, so if you live in New York, you'll have to trek out to Larchmont in Westchester or Somerville, New Jersey, to place your order. Of course, that's at least the case for now, as Alfa plans to eventually expand to over 300 dealers in North America. In the meantime, you can check out the full list in the press release below to see how close you are to a new Alfa dealer. ALFA ROMEO FRANCHISES AWARDED TO 86 DEALERS IN U.S. AND CANADA - Alfa Romeo dealer network established in U.S. and Canada - Initial pool of 86 dealers drawn from existing FIAT and Maserati brand dealers - Additional Alfa Romeo franchises to be awarded later this year June 10, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - An initial group of 86 dealers have been awarded Alfa Romeo franchises in the United States and Canada. In the U.S., 82 Alfa Romeo dealers are located in 33 states, with California, Texas, and Florida having the largest concentration of dealerships. There are four Alfa Romeo dealers in Canada in this first group. These 86 dealers will be the first to sell the all-new 2015 Alfa Romeo 4C coupe and limited-edition 4C Launch Edition when the iconic Italian sports car brand returns to the North American market this year. "This group of dealers represents the first phase in the Alfa Romeo dealer network selection process," said Peter Grady, Vice President of Network Development, Chrysler Group LLC.
