 Very Reliable, All Common Alfa Ailments Fixed. Alfa Romeo 1st Edition Quadrifoglio: 


This is one the nicest and cleanest Spider on the market today. Well Over $17,000 spent (I have the reciepts) on all the improvements and upgrades, and hundreds of hours of my time. Plus an additional $8,500 purchase price a few years back.

Most all work was performed by Auto Veloce a highly regarded and rated professional Alfa Specialist / Shop in Miami. I have receipts and pictures for most all of the improvements. The paint( Correct Alfa Silver) and interior were redone prior to me purchasing. I had the Center console, that always cracks, redone in Genuine Leather. This car drives, looks and still smells like new. The engine is smooth, runs strong, burns and leaks no oil. She Runs at temperature all day and is extremely comfortable and reliable. The car drives straight, does not pull, is tight and does not vibrate at high or low speeds. The tires are in good shape with little tread wear and the rims are in good condition. The car shifts beautifully and the infamous 2nd gear Synchro is good.

This car is a definite head turner! Also everything that needs to be accomplished to make an Alfa Spider a reliable and comfortable everyday driver has been done.  All the known flaws that are in inherent to late model spiders have been addressed and fixed.

Recent (less than 14mo. and 5k miles) Updates & Upgrades Include:

  • New High End Convertible Top (The Frame is also new)and Rear Window.
  • New top of the line Carpet (including Trunk) and Alfa Floor-Mats.
  • Any rust on the floor-panels (common flaw to all 1980- 93 late models) was cut out and new metal was welded.
  • Floor panels were primed and painted with rust proof paint.
  • Heat and Sound Deadening Insulation was installed throughout.
  • New spare tire wheel housing .
  • Custom Center Console wrapped in Real Leather.
  • New Wood Shifter knob, Leather Shift Boot and Rubber Gasket.
  • New Leather Brake Console Boots as well.
  • Digital clock was replaced with the much classier Dial Version.
  • Nardi wood steering wheel.
  • New Windshield and Seal.
  • New Windshield Inner Trim.
  • Custom Alfa Logo Graphics on the hood.
  • High end Window Tinting.
  • Door Gaskets were reinforced with weatherproofing (common problem to late models) so no leaks.
  • New Dash Cover.
  • New Exhaust System and Catalytic Converter.
  • Rear exhaust angles down to eliminate fumes ( a very common problem to all spiders).
  • All Fuel Condensation Lines and Canisters (front and back) were replaced, all Vacuum lines ( including a new line from back to front) as well. No More Fuel Smells.
  • New In Tank Fuel Pump and sending unit.

  • New Alfa Romeo and Quadrifoglio Emblems Front and Rear.
  • New A/C Compressor, System blows ice cold. Also the center vents work (These vent lines come pinched from the factory, this common flaw was also fixed)
  • New A/C Belt. In order to replace you need to take the compressor out.
  • Custom fitted car cover.
  • Many,many, many more small Items and Flaws were Addressed, Repaired or Replaced.
  • Includes Original Owner's Manual, Technical Service Manual and one set of keys.
This Quadrifoglio shows to have been adult owned and properly maintained. It spent most its life in VA. NC. and FLa. This car is stored indoors in my climate and humidity controlled one car garage at my Residence in Bal-Harbor, Florida. I will gladly show the Car live via skype to any serious buyer. I will also send a video of the undercarriage to any interested party. Prior to sale I encourage the owner to come with me and meet the mechanics that performed all the work. Im an Alfa Enthusiast however this was a hobby for me, therefore the mechanics can offer much more detail.

The car has about 47k on the odometer as cable was broken when I purchased this car about 2 years ago. The Engine runs perfectly.The paint job is a 6 out of 10 and the car has some minor / miniscule dings here and there but as its my daily driver im fine with that. To the untrained eye the car looks like new. The car fax shows no accidents but the left front fender did have some bodywork performed in the past. Prior to and then post purchase the car was closely and professionally evaluated and this car has no frame damage whatsoever. This Spider has a Florida State Title with no liens.

I inherited a 1978 Ferrari 308 and must now part with this Gem of an Alfa. My loss is your gain! $17,500 very firm. Note im taking a $8,000 loss not to mention countless hours of my time. Luckily I Dont need the money whatsoever, so please dont waste your time with low ball offers. You always get what you pay for. No other Alfa in the market today has had this kind of work done.

If you buy another one, sooner rather than later you will have to do all of the above and it will end up costing you a lot more than it did me. I intended on keeping this car till the end so i did everything that commonly goes wrong with these cars and more. Feel free to call me at (917) 684-6993 w/ any questions.

Compare to other Alfa's on the market, and this is the one you will want to own! Thanks for looking and good luck with your Alfa Quest. Remember luck is the crossroads when preparation meets opportunity.

We're not getting the Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce, and that's fine

Wed, Sep 21 2016

Alfa Romeo revealed today that a special edition of the Giulia sports sedan called "Veloce" will make its debut in Paris. It's only slated for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, but before you start lamenting that the US will once again miss out on a cool Euro-spec sedan, we have some good news: it's nothing special. The Giulia Veloce is just a normal Giulia with an appearance package and a fancy name. It comes with either the 280-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder gas engine, which we will get in 276-hosepower trim, or the 210-horsepower diesel four-cylinder. From there, Alfa throws in options like Q4 all-wheel drive, 19-inch 5-hole wheels, a tweaked front bumper, sport seats and steering wheel, rear diffuser and black window trim. That's it. Well that, and one of the Veloces at the show will sport a new color of blue, but it's not clear if that's a package-exclusive color or just another option. Many of these components will be available in the US, including the all-wheel drive, wheels, and, based on the American Alfa website, probably the black window trim. It's just that they won't all come in one package. And even if a few pieces of vehicle flair don't make it here, we're still not going to lose sleep over an appearance package. If you really need to be upset about something, perhaps consider the fact that we probably won't see Giulias on dealer lots until early next year. And that's just our best guess since we don't have an official launch date yet. Now that's something worthy of some frustration. Related Video:

Watch 14 hot rides take over concept car lawn at Pebble Beach

Sun, Aug 16 2015

The Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance is an annual celebration of the beautiful, old cars that grace Monterey Car Week. But Monterey – and Pebble – features lots of newer metal, too, and that includes the concept lawn at Pebble Beach. Now, "concept lawn" isn't a totally accurate name anymore, and you'll see why in the list below. This year especially, plenty of production cars can be found in the area once reserved for the conceptual. Still, we're happy to see them. Here's what's featured this year: Alfa Romeo 4C Spider Audi R8 BAC Mono Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6 BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage R Buick Avenir Galpin-Fisker Rocket Speedster Hyundai HCD-16 Vision G Coupe Icona Volcano Infiniti Q60 Lamborghini Asterion LPI 910-4 Maserati Ghibli McLaren 570S Rolls-Royce Wraith By our count, that's seven concepts out of fourteen cars. But it still makes for one hot group of metal. Check 'em out in the gallery above.
