Condition: UsedSeller Notes:"his Alfa Romeo Spider is a true gem and is in absolutely MINT condition throughout. It was purchased on California and completely stripped down. Entire car was rebuilt to specification using original Alfa Romeo parts by licensed Alfa Romeo technicians. The engine is an inline 4 cylinder with only 8953Kms – only driven in summer. Red exterior with black leather interior. This car has upgraded Momo rims and an upgraded Alpine Stereo system. Bumpers were also upgraded and original bumper are included as well. The vehicle was appraised at $35,000 (official documentation will be provided)."

This 1978 Alfa Romeo Spider was originally purchased in California over twenty years ago, 1990, and was meticulously restored to the pristine condition as seen in the pictures. The Spider was Alfa Yellow when purchased and was free from any rust. The Spider was restored from the ground up and the paint converted to the classic Alfa Red.  Each part was completely taken apart and was either restored or replaced with original Alfa Parts. For example the stainless steel performance exhaust system was purchased in Italy and brought over as nothing suitable could be found in North America. The bumpers were converted to European Bumpers, but NA ones will also be provided if purchased.  The interior was completely restored while preserving the interior components that were not blemished. The 2.0 Litre Engine was completely re-built by an Alfa Romeo technician and engine specialist.  The original rims were changed for Momo 5 Star rims.
 
This Spider is unlike any other Spider out there, as you can see from the others listed here on ebay. You will not find a better Spider out there. The appraiser who came to see the vehicle said, and I quote, "I've never seen a vehicle this well done. Not even if it rolled off the production lot of Alfa Romeo, or any brand, would a vehicle look this good."
 
So if you are looking for an immaculate Spider, look no further as this car is worth every penny.  You will never find a better Spider than this and you will not be disappointed when you sit behind the wheel and drive it.

Chrysler appoints new heads of Alfa Romeo and Ram

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

Chrysler has announced to two key appointments to its senior leadership, both of them taking immediate effect. First up is Reid Bigland, who has been named head of the Alfa Romeo brand for North America. Bigland has served until now as head of the Ram Truck brand, a portfolio he now hands over to Robert Hegbloom, who had served until now as its director.
As a result of the appointments, both Bigland and Hegbloom will take up seats on Chrysler's NAFTA Leadership Team, and Bigland will also join the Fiat Chrysler Group Executive Council - the highest decision-making body in the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles empire.
As per Sergio Marchionne's leadership style, Bigland will continue to serve in two major capacities, maintaining his role as president and CEO of Chrysler Canada. Other senior executives who hold multiple key portfolios include Harald Wester (who serves as the group's Chief Technology Officer and also overseas Alfa Romeo, Maserati and Abarth), Olivier Francois (group Chief Marketing Officer and head of the Fiat brand) and Michael Manley (head of the Asia-Pacific region and the Jeep brand).

Fiat Chrysler target 850k sales in China by 2018

Sun, 11 May 2014

Behind the vanguard of numerous Jeep models, two Chryslers, a smattering of Fiats and Alfa Romeos and local production through a joint venture with Guangzhou Automotive Group (GAG), Fiat Chrysler wants to increase sales in China more than six-fold by 2018. The group sold 130,000 cars in China in 2013, the aim for 2018 being 850,000 cars.
Ultimately it's expected that the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Wrangler, Renegade, the coming Grand Wagoneer and a sub-Renegade-sized crossover will either be built in or exported to the People's Republic. The Chrysler Town & Country and 300 will join the export list in 2016 and 2018 respectively, according to a report in Automotive News.
With a number of those vehicles not in production or perhaps even envisaged yet, and others not due on the local market until 2018, it will be interesting to see how Fiat Chrysler plans to achieve the target in the specified timeframe. The joint venture with GAG builds two products now, the Dodge Dart-based Fiat Viaggio launched two years ago - supposedly designed just for China - and the just-launched Fiat Ottimo, a hatchback version of the Viaggio. Fiat projected 300,000 Viagio sales in its first two years, that number has been adjusted downward to 94,000 and there doesn't appear to be an analyst alive that sees a good future for Fiat in China's overrun mainstream market. Still, last year's 130,000 group sales in China is a huge jump from 2012 sales of 66,000 units, but less than half the 300,000 units it projected.
