1986 Alfa Romeo Graduate

Here's a great older Alfa that's recently received a bunch of work. It's been with the same owner since 1991 and comes with full records (if you call I can give you a rundown of what's been done over the years. A lot!) The acceleration is spot on. Brakes work well, as does the transmission. The car just got a brand new windshield ($900) and new soft top ($1,500). The current owner is getting on in years and has decided he shouldn't drive it anymore so the car is now up for sale.


The interior has signs of wear, but nothing awful; just wear and tear on the seats, mainly. All gauges work as they should, as do all the lights. The car was repainted a few years back and is a decent job: not concours quality but still shiny and smooth. The tires still have tread, but the car really deserves better ones down the road as these were put on to match a budget rather than for performance. One hubcap shows minor damage near one of the lug nuts; possibly from the nut being stuck at some point. Beyond the new windshield and convertible top, the car recently was in the shop for minor repairs to the trunk and gas door releases and a few other minor issues. While there the car was checked out and the mechanic gave it a thumb's up. A top-end rebuild was done a number of years ago and the car runs well (we're happy to go through repair receipts with you, if you'd like). It passes smog testing and has no apparent mechanical issues that need to be addressed. 

We know it's very hard to get a feel for a car without seeing it in person, but we are willing to help determine condition however we can. We are more than happy to give a comprehensive rundown of the car's condition over the phone, as well as a live walk-around Q&A if you so desire. We are also available to take the car to the mechanic of your choice if you'd like an independent inspection (we would if we were buying a car online.) You are also welcome to speak with the mechanic who last worked on the car (He is well-versed, being a top-notch mechanic and coincidentally restoring an Alfa Spider himself).

Share price falls on skepticism of Chrysler-Fiat five-year plan

Thu, 08 May 2014

Following 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.

Marchionne offers belated apology for 'wop engine' comment

Wed, 22 May 2013

Automotive News reports Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has issued a written apology for his comments regarding his decision to stick with an Italian engine for the upcoming Alfa Romeo 4C. As you may recall, back in January, Marchionne was quoted as saying, "I cannot come up with a schlock product, I just won't. I won't put an American engine into that car. With all due respect to my American friends, it has to be a wop engine." The CEO penned an apology to the Italian American ONE VOICE Coalition for using the racial epithet, saying that he made the comment in jest. Marchionne also said he realizes his remarks were unacceptable.
ONE VOICE, an organization aimed at fighting discrimination and stereotyping of Italian Americans, thanked Marchionne, Chrysler and Fiat for the apology. Marchionne is an Italian-born Canadian citizen, and he's gotten in trouble for other comments in the past. In 2011, he called high interest rates Chrysler was paying to the Canadian government "shyster rates." He apologized a day later.

CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over

After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.
