Opportunity Knocks..........  

You now have the opportunity to own what is currently The Most Visible Alfa Romeo In The World.  This Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce Quadrifoglio was filmed by one of the greatest motion picture Directors of our time, Martin Scorsese, for the new worldwide smash hit movie "THE WOLF OF WALL STREET".  This special, one-of-a-kind and near-mint Pininfarina  Quadrifoglio appears not only in the Movie  - -  but also in the award-winning Promotional Trailer; televised Award Shows;  Entertainment and News television shows such as Entertainment Tonight and CNN;  and is constantly visible on a daily/worldwide basis via mass media websites covering this hit film (NBC/CNN/Los Angeles Time/The Hollywood Reporter, Barrons, etc).  Scorsese uses this Alfa Romeo as an automotive icon representing 1987 Wall Street filming him in scenes featuring Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill.  In the award-winning movie trailer, Scorsese and Paramount use this Alfa as the main visual under Leonardo DiCaprio's debut character voice-over:  "My name is Jordan Belfort". Just last week during the Golden Globes Awards telecast on ABC, this Alfa was featured as the very first scene in the nominated "Best Picture" video presented by Jonah Hill  to a televised audience of 22 million US viewers (250 million viewers worldwide).  Two nights ago, this Alfa was seen on the CNN show Piers Morgan Live featuring a one hour interview with Leonardo DiCaprio's character, the controversial Jordan Belfort.  And just this morning, Alfa/Leo scene is seen in a Los Angeles Times feature on Jonah Hill. 

The Wolf of Wall Street has just received 5 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture.
 
This vintage Alfa Romeo is simply like "No Other" in the world now.

2nd Owner has pampered and babied this New York City-based "Rock Star" since 2000.  Serviced by the finest Alfa heritage service centers in NY, it runs flawlessly and turns more heads/draws more attention here than any car on the road - -bar none..  Not a day goes by when he doesn't receive smiles, accolades, compliments and cell phone/Instagram photos taken by the general public-- even while cruising on the highway!   

Current vehicle condition:  Mechanicals/Electricals all 100%. Interior, seats, carpets, instruments: all 100%.   Engine and Clutch rebuilt within past 3 years.  5 year old Pirelli's in great shape. A/C is cold!  Soft top fabric is dark black and still great, however rear window has some scuffs.  Leather Boot is fine, however needs hardware refastening to leather (best done when soft top is eventually replaced).  Factory hardtop has small corner crack from prior owner (see pix). Passenger side exterior "runner" has a 3" dia factory convex bump out (classic Alfa sheet metal issue, see pix). Front emblem is 1/4 dented "in" (Owner will try to fix prior to sale, see pix). Small, old windshield crack (3/8" in center" from first owner, not noticable). Original Radio works/Cassette doesn't.  Invisible rear crack in teflon gearshift handle (Owner will try to fix prior to sale).  Windshield washer motor is down (Owner will try to fix prior to sale).  Passenger side door lock cylinder is broken (Owner will try to fix prior to sale).  "Trying to Fix" means "if parts are immediately available" (these are all minor, relatively inexpensive repairs/parts fortunately).  Basically, 99% of the car is mint....the above 1% are simple fixes, general wear-and-tear stuff for New York City year 'round, garaged cars. 

Through visiblity in the hit movie; pre-release trailers/continuing high-visiblity marketing; and the worldwide internet media coverage; this Alfa Romeo has garnered at least 100 million visible impressions worldwide - - and counting (all numbers are 100% quantifiable). 

This Quadrifoglio was filmed in Fall, 2012 in scenes starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Jonah Hill and Jon Bernthal (see pix) at locations on Wall Street, Westchester NY and Northern New Jersey.  It is one of only 4 "exotic/collector cars" featured in the movie.  

THE WOLF OF WALL STREET has been nominated for FIVE Academy Awards, including:  Best Picture, Best Director (Scorsese), Best Actor (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Best Supporting Actor (Jonah Hill).  This is your opportunity to own a continuing classic, one-of-a-kind collectable who's value will only increase - - and quickly!!!!!!

Alfa Romeo takes Spider in-house, Mazda-Fiat roadster partnership not dead

Sat, Dec 20 2014

It's officially off. Following a report in March of this year that the marriage of Mazda and Alfa Romeo to produce a MX-5-based Spider was in trouble, the Italians have confirmed that it will take development in-house. "As far as the Spider goes, the final version is of course no longer the two-seater FCA co-developed with Mazda but a derivative of Project Giorgio," Maserati and Alfa Romeo brand boss Harald Wester told Car. For those not in the know, Project Giorgio is Alfa's codename for the rear-drive platform that will underpin the next-generation Spider, not to mention the replacement for the 159 sedan and a few other products. All is not lost for the Japanese-Italian partnership, though. "The Far East import will probably find a new home with Fiat-Abarth," Wester told Car. Yes, you read that correctly, Mazda is still working with FCA, and the result will eventually end up with Abarth's scorpion badge. If anything, we're more excited over this news than the idea of an Alfa MX-5. But we want to know what you think – would you rather Alfa build a new Spider on the Miata's bones, or does an MX-5 Abarth sound like more fun? Have your say in Comments.

Alfa Romeo's Super Bowl commercial is about dreams and reinvention [UPDATE]

Mon, Feb 6 2017

Update 2: Alfa Romeo keeps rolling out the Super Bowl ads. The post has been changed to include the third ad and information about it. Update: Alfa Romeo had not one, but two new Super Bowl commercials, and this post has been edited to include the second one. Alfa Romeo's Super Bowl commercial talks about the things we've dreamed of since we were kids, like riding on dragons and flying cars. It also covers the various life lessons many of us learn, including how to be true to oneself. All the while, images of childhood, growing up, and vintage Alfa Romeos are spliced together. It covers some heartwarming ground, but it's all a bit broad and borderline vague. The idea seems to be that Alfa as a company has learned the same lessons we do growing up, and that it all pays off with its new models. The second ad is much better, and is all about Alfa's strengths: driving enjoyment, passion, and other cliched Italian automotive characteristics. It shows a new Giulia Quadrifoglio cruising some gorgeous mountain roads, and the driver talking about being one with the vehicle and loving the experience. The bit about letting something go if you love it was cheesy, but this was a commercial that really showed what Alfa Romeo is all about, and we liked it. Check it out above. Alfa's third Super Bowl ad of the night continues what the second one started. This one focuses on the most powerful Giulia's beauty, and, well, power. It's apparently both breath-taking and breath-giving. Check out the commercial above. Related Video: Image Credit: Alfa Romeo / YouTube Alfa Romeo Super Bowl Commercials Videos super bowl li

Fiat 124 Abarth Spider spied, may get Alfa 4C power

Tue, Jul 14 2015

We've long been excited to see, hear, and drive the car that results from the in-process Fiat-Mazda partnership. The Italian brand has had access to the excellent 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata on which to base its own roadster, and the fruits of that labor will soon ripen. Spied here is not only the ensuing Fiat 124, but a hotter Abarth tuned version of the spider. At least, that's what we're hoping. Our spy shooters indicated that the car seen here not only sounded more aggressive than 'standard' 124 mules seen previously, but that it also accelerated away from their long lenses with a smartness. The 124 Spider is already rumored to make use of the 1.4-liter turbo I4 that makes 160 horsepower in the Fiat 500 Abarth, and this version may have a still-more-powerful engine. Another tell about the added output are the quad tailpipes in place of the lesser car's set of two. There's no hard evidence to support exactly which engine might be under the 124's hood, however. It's possible that the 1.7-liter turbo from Alfa Romeo 4C could be in play – with its 237-hp output – as the 124 was originally going to wear an Alfa badge. If that were to happen, however, the Fiat would almost certainly get a dual-clutch transmission instead of the purer manual box. In any event, more details about the car will no doubt crop up closer to the expected reveal this fall. Related Video:
