In great shape, fun to drive.  Bought in Santa Barbara  in 2006, always garage kept (carport in summer).  Top worn but in good shape ( only about $700 for a new one) and seats/upholstery also in good shape.  Comes with brand new wood steering wheel and new horn assembly as well as a cover for the top when it's open - I could not find anyone to install.  Maintenance records up until I bought it, since then - new exhaust and clutch work done.  Smoke free, and no accidents.  Air conditioning has never worked, new cable release frame for the door jamb not yet installed, and door seals are a little torn in places.  Small tear at the bottom of the back window.  Vehicle to be picked up, or buyer to arrange all shipping details.  More photos upon request.

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.
