1984 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce on 2040-cars
Seymour, Indiana, United States

I have had the privilege of owning this Italian work of art since October 2003. Now it's time for me to offer the beautiful car to a new owner, who hopefully will appreciate her as much as I have. It's not a "show" car, but a very sound and attractive vehicle that still turns heads when you drive by. It needs to be driven and unfortunately I no longer have the time to devote to her.
I am by no means a mechanic and this is a 30 year old car. It is very sound and drives well but like any car that's been on the road for 3 decades, it is not perfect. The synchro in 2nd gear is a little touchy....a very common issue with this model. The blower for the defroster/heater does not work. Until recently, both power windows worked fine, but now the driver's side window has stopped working (the window is up). Additionally, the driver's side door won't lock -- not sure if that's related to the power window problem. The levers for the vent windows are not attached but I do have them in the glove compartment. (Same as when I purchased the car!) On the "good" side: the car has Michelin tires with almost no wear. The radiator core has been replaced within the last month. The canvas top is in excellent condition with a clear rear window. I replaced the aftermarket radio that was in the car with a Pioneer receiver/CD player with a detachable face plate. I am including a copy of Pat Braden's Alfa Romeo Owner's Bible, a 1984 Owner's Operational Manual (50 state version) and an Alfa flag that I briefly flew on my garage. SUMMER IS NOT OVER YET! I'm offering a rare opportunity to own the Italian sports car you always wanted, at a very reasonable price. The car is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early. Local pick up only, but I will work with a buyer that wants to ship the car at the buyer's cost. |

Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.
Share price falls on skepticism of Chrysler-Fiat five-year plan
Thu, 08 May 2014Following this week's Fiat Chrysler extravaganza, where the Italian-American manufacturer announced its plans for the next five years, the Autoblog staff was cautiously optimistic of the company's future. Investors? Not so much.
Fiat saw its shares tumble 12 percent in Wednesday's trading, falling from 8.67 euros ($12.06 at today's rates) to 7.44 euros ($10.35) as of this writing, with blame partly going to the Italian half of the FCA marriage, which recorded a pretty significant drop in profits during the first quarter of this year.
The plan, which will cost around $77 billion over the next several years, is facing criticism from investors thanks in part to a 1.4-percent drop in Fiat's first-quarter profits, to 622 million euros ($862 million). That figure is also short of Bloomberg analysts' projections, which predicted $1.18 billion in profits before taxes, interest and one-time items.
Next Mazda MX-5 Miata headed for 2015 Chicago debut
Fri, 17 Jan 2014Twenty-six years after it was introduced at the 1989 Chicago Auto Show, the much anticipated fourth generation Mazda MX-5 Miata will meet the press at the 2015 Chicago show. A piece in Autocar refines some of the details on the larger, lighter Miata that a Mazda insider has said will be "our best-looking car ever."
The company has relented on the quest for the metric tonne, the 1000-kilogram (2,200-pound) target too difficult to achieve in light of cost constraints. You can still expect it to lose a generous dollop of weight - Autocar says a curb weight of 1,100 kg (2,420 pounds) will still make it the lightest in its class. And Mazda will be stressing a fun driving experience through light weight and a modest amount of naturally-aspirated horsepower. Engine capacities of 1.5 and 2.0 liters are expected. Sounds familiar (and good), right?
The Miata's interpretation of Kodo design will be veer from that found on the Mazda3 and Mazda6, with "very clean and simple" lines marking out "more muscular proportions" and elongated bodywork on a longer wheelbase. A stretched engine bay will make room for the current Skyactiv engine and perhaps the future Skyactiv 2 powerplants, initial reports suggesting there could be a 30-percent increase in fuel economy from the moment it arrives.
