do you use your milano a lot?Silver, Gold & Platinum have a 2.5 liter engine. The trim level is nicer as yu go up the "scale". The Verde (Quadrifoglio performance edition) has a 3 liter engine, and the body spoilers. Yes, the Platinum and Verde do share some of the upgrades, which are not found in the Gold and Silver editions.
Best regards,
i would love to see pics, thanks.automatic?!?!?!? ewww that takes the fun out of things imo
ive got pics of my milano platinum prior to editing if youd like
I'm not using it all right now, because it is waiting in line for a full paint job. This will be done by true Alfa restorers, and they have a lot of work, so I just have to be patient. When it's done, I'll be driving it sparingly, but one of its uses will be to take lessons on the track. The Milanos are excellent as dual purpose cars, and they are comfortable enough to drive out to the tracks. (As you know, around here we've got to go to CT or PA.) BTW, I bought my Verde from Giuseppe, from the AIC...do you use your milano a lot?
i would love to see pictures of it.
thanks.
thanks for sharing. i have always been a big fan of the milano. so i am just "thinking" about buying one if it comes along.here ya go...one thing i did love about the platinum is the combination suede and leather thruout interior
did you just recently purchase your milano? will you be getting the car painted in NJ or OH? as you know i have already done a lot of work on my near perfect spider. i would love to buy a milano in just as good shape which could be very hard to find. since milano's are very rare, i am not in any rush. if this was a perfect world - i would buy a late model milano, automatic, less then 15k miles, all original for about 15k. i am not one to buy a car and work on it myself - so the car has to be in excellent condition. is this realistic to find or am i dreaming?I'm not using it all right now, because it is waiting in line for a full paint job.

It's being painted in NJ, and it's already at the shop. It's anything but a low mileage example, but the engine was re-done, and the interior is also perfect. To me, the most important criteria is the reliability of the car. Any car I own must be able to go cross country anytime, so I'm fanatical about keeping the cars properly maintained. I also find that once an Alfa is sorted, the most inexpensive approach is to never skimp on its maintenance. If a $1k job is coming up, I don't try to cut any corners to get it done for less. I also won't buy a car from a seller that had his/her Alfa serviced by a non-Alfa mechanic.did you just recently purchase your milano? will you be getting the car painted in NJ or OH? as you know i have already done a lot of work on my near perfect spider. i would love to buy a milano in just as good shape which could be very hard to find. since milano's are very rare, i am not in any rush. if this was a perfect world - i would buy a late model milano, automatic, less then 15k miles, all original for about 15k. i am not one to buy a car and work on it myself - so the car has to be in excellent condition. is this realistic to find or am i dreaming?
i kind of figured that.yeah an auto 164 is by far easyer to find but finding ANY milano under 100k miles may be tricky
Figure again, as you look at this thread: 1989 Alfa Romeo Milano Gold valuei kind of figured that.
i am sure they are out there - i just have to find it.
