My 164 Quadrifolio - just like she left the factory.

Thought I would share with the other 24V Q fans on the BB. Here is my Rosso/Tan 1994 Q. 1/35 imported in 1994. She is a very rare beautiful and very fast bella. Interior is just as she left the factory. Car is the most perfect Q I have seen. I have done slight upgrades, including 156 GTA intake cams, full Stebro exhaust, Eibach springs, balanced and flow benched stock injectors, new shiny intake, euro Q wheel, euro lights, new factory radiator, heater core, new belts, hoses, brakes and many other things to make her as perfect and as new as possible. I estimate about 250-260 hp. I drove this car up to Montery from LA and arrived in 4 hours flat! The drive up in this car was incredible and really impressed me more then I thought. I have a new respect for this car and what it's capabilities are. I turned away some nice offerrs in Montery to continue enjoying her. I just love this car. It was Alfa's last real car to come out of the factory as a "true Alfa Romeo". I just returned from Arese at the Alfa mueseum and archives. They have 1 almost brand new Q4 there, which was neat to see. Alfa is doing a 164 Q4/ 159 Q4 marketing campaign to show the cars pedigree. They asked me if I would be interested in having this car participate (even though it is not a Q4). They actully do not have a perfect Quadrifolio and are looking for one to add to the completeness of the mueseum from what was related to me. Not sure I can part with her though

Magnificanto!

A few weeks ago I went to a Conncours and purposely entered my 164 Q as a "do not judge" entry, since I would be judging. My engine bay was cleaner than any of the 164s competing, but it is not perfect... Yours is! Congratulations! It's a real pleasure to see a Q in such beautiful condition. Sounds like you got some great upgrades as well.

Best regards,

A beautiful and awesome car in every way!
Those are not the original floormats, right? The original ones would have been black? Where did you get those?
I have a 164S with tan interior and floor mats like those might match perfectly...
Thanks,

The engine bay really was the coolest part for me. The bay looked like the engine was just dropped in there. The only thing I could tell that was different was the valve covers had light, light, marks from the abbrasive cleaning, but there would be no other way to clean them to the degree he did!

Perfectly

In fact all electronics in the car work like new even the sunroof.
I will take a closeup for you.

Here is the 20 Yrs. of evolution campaign the Quadrifoglio may be in. She would be in good company.

Rosso, if you PM me with the persons name and city (and any other previous owners)that you got the car from I can check my records to see if its one of my 'never worry again' upgrades.
I have done quite a few for Qs and maybe this is one of them!

Dam that is a nice car! I am kinda jealous. I want a copy of that brochure where did you get it from?

Comparing the styling of the 164 and 159 in the photo, I would go for th 164 anytime. I has that timeless styling that is so hard to acheive. Except for the Alfa grill, the 159 could be one of many current cars.

Your's is a particularly clean example. Hopefully, someday, my nero/tan one will be half as good as yours!
