Black 164L (I think L) on the westbound PA Turnpike near the Mid-County exit just the other day....soldiering through the NE winter! Made me want one myself. If it's anyone here, I was ogling your car from my white SHO.

I'd still like to know who was driving the sweet looking red S4, tan interior, top-down a few weeks ago on Valencia road west of Tucson....near Ryan field. I don't know too many Alfisti's around here.

Truely! I've had one or another since I got my license. You can usually pick up a nice one for a few $k which puts them in he same fun/$ bracket as many Alfas. Lately I find myself interested in trading to a 164 though.....it's just infinitly more Italian.

What Gen did you own? Mine have all been Gen 1 (1989-1991).

I Had a 91 black SHO wi all the options- bought it used but knew the owner- -very trouble free but bad paint- bought it wi 30K on it, sold it wi 100 K-

Got the funds in last week. May take the car down to the paint shop tomorrow. First time I've had off to do it! Appraised at $2600 damage. It was one freaking expensive log!

Best Regards,
John M

Thats not as bad as I thought. Our Suzuki was over 1,000 bucks just to replace the front bumper cover and paint it.

WOW! Here's one I didn't expect to see! It looks like the car is known to people in Texas... a silver Alfa Romeo 166 Super! Incredible... had Texas plates, too. Anyone know more details? I saw it by Mockingbird Station in Dallas.

(sorry for the poor photo... shot with my camera phone)
