Here is a family owned Alfa Romeo that has been a member of our stable since 1993. I surprised my wife with the car and she enjoyed it for many years, I even was allowed to drive the car occasionally! My sister then bought the car in 1998 and it moved to Arizona where it has lived ever since. She used the car and enlisted my help refurbishing it. We installed Koni shocks, bigger swaybars, 1in lower springs, sump guard, roll bar, as well as many bushings and rubber parts, brake pads etc. Then about 2002 it went to an Alfa Specialist near Phoenix and had the top end overhauled, and the Trans rebuilt. Many small bits were included in the work like the engine and trans mounts and all hoses. The car became a weekend toy and was always garaged. A sudden change in fortune brought the car to us again in a trade for a pick up truck. I was delighted and ready to continue the project. First was a down to bare metal body restoration, much time and energy was lavished on making the car as near perfect as could be. Mike Love in Lake Havasu did the work, the quality is evident and the cost was breath taking. The interior was next and the pictures show the condition clearly, new seat skins were done and a beautiful cloth top fitted. The carpets are in good condition, not new, but very nice. The fuel system has been recently serviced with new fuel pumps fitted to ensure continued reliability.
I do want to mention the following known issues, the top of the dash does have cracks in it, as many do, the heater is not plumbed in as the core began leaking, these would be the only flaws I know of.
Since 2008 the car has been driven infrequently and stored in my garage in Lake Havasu, kept on a battery tender. It's a shame to have this beautiful car sitting unused, so it is up for sale.
1985 is the last year for the two binnacle Tach and Speedo. It was the first year for Bosch fuel injection, which brought greater reliability and better driving manners. My wife has another collector car and I suffered an injury that does not allow me to drive a stick any longer. This is an enthusiast owned car that has had much to much money spent on it, my loss will be it's new owners gain as I doubt you will find many Alfas in this condition.

Alfa Romeo bringing 4C Spider to Geneva
Wed, Feb 26 2014With the Geneva Motor Show fast approaching, we're receiving news left, right and center of various debuts lined up. And the latest bit of intel suggests that Alfa Romeo has prepared an open-top version of the 4C for debut at the Swiss expo. The 4C Spider is tipped to incorporate several changes over the fixed-roof coupe version. For one, it'll have a removable roof panel (Porsche's people might call it a "Targa") along with a pair of carbon-fiber roll hoops affixed behind the bucket seats. That'll give the Alfa 4C a wind-in-your-hair driving experience to go with its high-output 1.75-liter turbo four. We don't know at this point if the car will debut in concept or production form, but word from Italy has it that the 4C Spider will also feature a different headlight design (in place of the controversial fly-eye headlamp units on the coupe) and, of course, a different set of wheels.

Alfa Romeo 8C and GTV: Classic names revived as high-powered hybrids
Fri, Jun 1 2018BOLOCCO, Italy — There were grand plans for Alfa Romeo at FCA's last five-year plan. By 2018, we were supposed to get eight new products, including a new "specialty" vehicle. In reality, we've gotten the Giulia and Stelvio. At this year's follow-up, Alfa Romeo brand head Tim Kuniskis called the last plan ambitious, but he offered a new vision that was both more realistic and more far-reaching. Beyond doubling down on utility and electrified vehicles, by 2022 Alfa has plans to revive both the 8C and GTV names as high-performance hybrids. Since 2014, Alfa sales are up 160 percent, with an estimated 170,000 vehicles to be sold in 2018. The North American market counts for 16 percent of that, up from nothing back in 2013. Future products will focus on Alfa's current strengths: styling and performance. Look for new compact and full-size utility vehicles to slot on each side of the Stelvio. Plans for a larger sedan seemed to have been nixed, though a long-wheelbase version of the Giulia will make it to the ever-increasing Chinese market. The most exciting news obviously comes from the return of the 8C supercar and GTV sports car. We have few details, but what we do know looks promising. The 8C will use a carbon-fiber chassis with a mid-mounted twin-turbo V6. More than 700 horsepower will be sent to all four wheels thanks to an electrically-driven front axle. The car should hit 62 mph in fewer than 3 seconds. The GTV will be slightly more tame, though Alfa is promising more than 600 horsepower from its hybrid powertrain. The four-seater will also have all-wheel drive, torque vectoring and a 50/50 weight distribution. The brief teaser image shows a car that looks like a two-door Giulia, though it's unclear if we'll actually get a new coupe. Electrification, autonomy and connectivity are coming, too. Obviously, the 8C and GTV will get electrified powertrains, but look for each Alfa Romeo model to have some sort of electrification available. Look for six plug-in hybrids with all-electric ranges of more than 30 miles. Level 2 and 3 autonomous systems are coming, too.
