Balena Bianca: 1994 Alfa Romeo 164LS

This next car comes as a tip from Erik202 who writes: Without looking at this car in person it's hard to say but my feeling is the seller is overly enthusiastic about it's condition. That being said, there doesnt seem to be any rust and the interior looks to be in great shape minus one shift knob. The fact that it appears to be parked in some type of car graveyard, however, makes me nervous about the mechanicals. Not so nervous I wouldn't take a chance for $2900 ($2100USD) if I was closer.  Find this 1994 Alfa Romeo 164 LS offered for $2900CAD ($2100USD) in Laval, QC via kijiji.net.

Verde, Bianco, Rosso, e Argento: 1974 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce

Today's next car isn't something that'll win some fancy prize at the next Amelia Island Concours D'Corpulence, or get you the front valet spot at some Michelin starred restaurant...but it could get you the front valet spot at your local Salsa Dancing spot (is dancing allowed during COVID19 crisis?) or spark a conversation with random folks in front of the gas pump.  You won't need to spend thousands of your hard earned stimulus money on restoring or maintaining this car, but you should be able to simply drive and enjoy...provided you have decent skills with a wrench, multi-meter, and the internet.

Twin Spark: 1996 Alfa Romeo Spider Tipo 916

The Alfa Romeo Spider built from 1995-2006 was a replacement for the aging Alfa Spider Giulia (1966-1993).  The Pininfarina designed exterior was a radical step forward in looks, but regrettably the car moved onto a transverse longitudinal front drive set up shaped with the contemporary GTV. The tipo 916 Spider was never sold new in the US of A, but you could get one in Canada...so now that they are 25 years old, import one yourself today. Find this 1996 Alfa Romeo Spider Tipo 916 here on eBay offered for $17,900 CAD ($12,811 USD) in Toronto, Canada.

Pininfarina Legacy for Pennies: 1991 Alfa Romeo 164

The Alfa Romeo 164 was designed by Enrico Fumia (designer of Grifo D'Oro Bertone, Siata Spring, Ferrari F90 & Lancia Ypsilon) when he worked at design house Pininfarina. The angular design was part of the Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Lancia and Saab cooperative agreement to develop the Type Four platform, which produced the Lancia Thema, Saab 9000, Fiat Croma and Alfa Romeo 164.  They are a cool sight on the road today -- equally stunning and stealthy, and I'd love to daily drive one if I didn't actually need to get to work each day.

Bella Macchina: 1993 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce

This next car comes as tip from Erik202 who writes: Forums have the best deals. I swear it doesn't get any better than forums. These cars continue to be criminally undervalued. I have to mostly agree with Erik202, because forums are places were diehard lovers of certain makes/models have a reputation, so they can't go asking insane money or selling something that isn't as advertised, but I've seen some ridiculous stuff on forums too.  However, when you find a seller who is more interested in getting his car to a qualified next owner, you can often get some of the best deals on the market..particularly with oddball marques like Saabs or Alfas.

Déjà Ewww: 2000 Mazda MX-5 Custom 60s Alfa Look

The Mazda MX-5 Miata is a fun little sports car wrapped in a boring exterior (sorry Miata fanboys, the shape is pretty blah...with maybe the exception of the newest model that brings some more style than the OG jelly bean) that is unfortunately slathered with a thick brush of innuendo about the driver and his dog.  Regardless, if you want the sweet driving experience of the modern Mazda platform with the classic looks of a 60s sports car 90s home-built-retro-custom, then I can imagine this next piece of Italiopanese sculpture might fit nicely in front of your Greco-Roman yard art. And if you get the vague sense of déjà ewwww...yes, we did feature this before. Find this 2000 Mazda MX-5 Custom 60s Alfa Look offered for $15500 in Temecula, CA via craigslist. Tip from Rock On!

Italian for Steal: 1988 Alfa Romeo Spider Quadrifoglio

This next tip comes from Erik202 who writes: Came across this cruising alfabb for sale listings. Seems like a great deal assuming the underside is even somewhat rust free. I had an 84 spider up until recently when I swapped it out for an e30 convertible (wanted the option of a rear seat for young kids) and absolutely LOVED it. This generation uses Bosch efi, are generally pretty simple mechanically and have awesome parts availability. I can't say enough about how much fun for the money these things are.  Find this 1988 Alfa Spider Quadrifoglio offered for $4000 in Chicago, IL via alfabb.com.

Mint Milano: 1987 Alfa Romeo Milano Gold

In June of this year, Alfa will turn 110 years old.  Over that period, as you would expect, a few different organizations have called Alfa their own. Alfa was first started and owned by a consortium of Milanese businessmen, then rescued by Nicola Romeo, then nationalized by Mussolini, then sold by the government to FIAT and now merged with Peugeot.  Some say the Milano/75 of the 1980's is the last of the real Alfa's, constructed in the Alfa plant outside of Milan, prior to its takeover by FIAT.  Here's your chance to own one of the last of the real Alfa's before the birthday celebrations drive the prices to the stratosphere.  Find this 1987 Alfa Romeo Milano Gold for sale in Berserkly, CA for $8,500 via craigslist.

Piccolo Progetto: 1979 Alfa Romeo Spider

This next car comes as a tip from Matt C who writes; If all this needs is carpet, it's a screaming deal. Might be a big if, but running sub-$2000 Italian cars aren't easy to find anymore.  Find this 1979 Alfa Romeo Spider offered for $1900 somewhere near Atlanta, GA

Double Cappuccino: 1993 Alfa Romeo 164

Is it a good sign or a bad sign when someone sells his entire fleet of cars? On the one hand you get a ton of spare parts to keep the "good" car running...but on the other hand...you NEED a ton of spare parts cars to keep the "good" one running....sheesh.   It is also an indication that the market for such a car has dropped to its low point and it can only go up...right?  Find this 1993 Alfa Romeo 164 + parts car offered for $3,500 in Woodside, NY via craigslist. Tip from Rock On! 

Italian Style: 1962 Alfa Romeo Giulietta TI Corsa

What could be better than a vintage Alfa Romeo with racing pedigree and bash/bumps to prove it?  If that same car was offered for a reasonable sum of money that didn't require a trust fun or the sale of your remaining good kidney.  You'll need that kidney for all of the booze your gonna drink when working on this car...because trust me, you won't want to take this to a mechanic.

Fiberfab Aztec 7: 1966 Alfa Romeo Carabo

The Alfa Romeo Carabo was a Marcello Gandini of Gruppo Bertone designed concept car that not only perfected wedge styling but also was equipped with wicked scissor doors..but you can't afford one if you could find one for sale, so why not get the Walmart version -- something called the Fiber Fab Aztec 7 that included most of the wedge-i-ness and a set of gull wing doors.  Find this 1966 Alfa Romeo Carabo Fiber Fab Aztec 7 offered for $6,000 in Sherman Oaks, CA via craigslist.

Resale Rossa: 1976 Alfa Romeo Alfetta GT

In the early 1900's before the days of mega sponsorships from international corporations, competitors worked from a standardized a list of racing colors that denoted the nation of the competing car.  Italy adopted it's famous Red or Rosso, after a red Italia won the 1907 Paris to Peking race.  Ever since, owners of used Italian cars have been repainting their cars red hoping for a quick sale - like our next car that left Arese in Rosso Amaranto (burgundy), and ended up a faded tomato.  Find this 1976 Alfa Romeo Alfetta GT for sale in Orange County, CA for $4,000 via craigslist.

Choco-Calzone: 1978 Alfa Romeo Spider

Last year, Porsche celebrated the 55th anniversary of the 911.  The 911 of 1963 doesn't share much in common with the 2018 911 other than maybe possessing four wheels and being rear-engined.  You definitely coudn't use parts from a 1963 911 on a 2018. In 1966 Alfa Romeo debuted their two seat Spider and changed very little over its 28 year production run. Meaning that you won't have too much trouble with parts for whatever year Spider strikes your fancy.  Find this 1978 Alfa Romeo Spider for sale in Astoria, OR for $6,300 via craigslist.

We Need Momo of This! 2000 Alfa Romeo 156 Momo Edition

Apparently, Canadians have a few major advantages over their neighbors to the South.  First, they are born with an extra set of chromosomes that makes them funny (John Candy, Mike Meyers, Norm MacDonald, Martin Short, Phil Hartman, Leslie Nielsen, Dave Foley, Rick Moranis...do I need to go on?) and, more importantly, they have a shorter 15 year import rule for grey market automobiles, so you can drive sweet 2000s Alfas without fear of the man storming into your house with concussion grenades.  Not sure the Mounties even use shape charges in their "knock and breech" protocol, but they'll certainly apologize if they forget to read you your the right to remain chilly.  Find this 2000 Alfa Romeo 156 Momo Edition offered for $6000 CAD ($4,479 USD) located in Vancouver, BC.

I Can't Drive 75: 1987 Alfa Romeo Milano

DT's Italian Week Continues: We all have hidden secret desires. Things that we like, but don't admit to our friends.  Yours, yes you dear reader, is watching that video of Britney Spears belt out Oops I Did It Again in her red vinyl body suit, but mine is worse.  Far worse. You see...I have a secret crush on a certain car that...well...not many people agree...but I happen to love the shape of the Alfa Romeo Milano. There, I said it.  I admitted it. And I FEEL GOOD ABOUT IT. IT'S LIBERAT---we interrupt this DT posting and bring in a new writer. The Alfa Romeo 75 was badged in the US market as the Milano between 1985 and 1992.  The Milano has the honor of being the last car released by Alfa before they were acquired by Fiat and the name 75 was in reference to the 75th anniversary of --LIBERATING.

1967 Alfa Romeo Giulia Super Berlina

Tipper Erik202 sent in a tip the other day and included the suggestion that DT does an "Italian" week special...and I thought to myself, this is a great idea, but I need to make sure that my team of editors agreed to this suggestion.  So, I turned to the teddy bear on my left and the bottle of Jim Beam on my right and then realized that I didn't need their permission to do an Italian week and I'm pretty sure the teddy bear is trying to horn in on my gal.  I might have to loosen his lips with a few pints of JB before he admits it, but I've got nothing but time...because, after all, it is Italian week.  Find this 1967 Alfa Romeo Giulia Super Berlina offered for $8000 in Escondido, CA via craigslist.
