This is an excellent, well running car. I drive it once a week to our winery and it performs as it should, like a real sports car, on our twisty hilly roads. It’s just a blast to drive. This is very much the quintessential Italian driver's car. It's crisp and tight with no rattling or creaking. It's the "Real McCoy" with a high revving motor, rear wheel drive, 4 wheel disc brakes and a rewarding 5 speed manual transmission. It is in very good condition and could very easily be brought up to show standards. Everybody who sees this car, just loves it. You’ll get lot’s of comments, questions and requests for a ride. These are legendary cars not only for their beauty but for the genius of their industrial design. The Alfa Romeo, all aluminum engine was admired and copied by many manufactures for its durability and performance. I bought this car 6 years ago in Napa, CA. I am in Paso Robles, CA. So, it has been spent it's life in the dry climates of California wine country and the condition shows it. It hasn't been flogged in LA traffic… Most of the heavy work on this car has been done by either myself (an engineer), a certified Alfa Romeo mechanic in Thousand Oaks, CA or by British Motorsports here in San Luis Obispo, CA. These cars can have a lot of hidden issues and strange configurations made by previous owners. Not this car, it is dialed-in and set to factory specifications when possible. I've tuned it specifically to pass California smog. It's passed three times in 6 years. If you are in CA, I have about 30 days left on the smog certification, so if you buy it in August, you may not have to smog it for two years. If you are not in CA, you don't care, lucky you… I paid cash for this car and the pink slip is mine and clear. I will make myself available to the buyer for any technical support and advice, however I am selling this car as is. I will also train the new owner on proper operation and important maintenance tasks. There is a good network of Alfa owners, clubs and some very good on-line forums that I've relied upon quite heavily. Work Done: •

Slow Chinese market delays Maserati and Alfa Romeo models
Thu, Dec 3 2015We already told you that Alfa Romeo was delaying the Giulia sedan and an unnamed CUV, but now things are getting worse. According to Bloomberg, Maserati has delayed the Alfieri sports car. And it's all China's fault. The faltering Chinese domestic market, which is experiencing its slowest period of growth in nearly three decades, is forcing Fiat Chrysler to rethink its plans for its Italian models, Bloomberg reports. Rather than going for models that would likely be popular in China, including the Alfa CUV and a larger sedan, the company will shift its focus and bring out updated MiTo and Giulietta hatchbacks, both of which would play better in Europe, an unnamed source within FCA told Bloomberg. This news is notable because it shows that FCA boss Sergio Marchionne's ambitious product transformation is not progressing as smoothly as planned. In the MiTo's case, the company is willing to go back on its original strategy. The subcompact hatch wasn't supposed to survive beyond 2016, but Bloomberg is reporting an update is due by the middle of next year. As for Maserati, well, there's not much to say. The Alfieri was supposed to go on sale next year, and now it's not. There's no word on how (or even if) Maserati's priorities will shift to another vehicle, or if this is simply a matter of money being distributed away from one of FCA's brands and toward another.

Just 45% of Fiat dealers are profitable, and they're angry about it
Mon, 07 Oct 2013<
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.
