quoting the NY Times article:

"Alfa withdrew from the American market in 1995 amid slumping sales brought on by a reputation for poor quality."

Well, then, why didn't all the US automakers fold during the 80's when they had NO quality :shock:

Beautiful looking car Stephan, I agree you need it!

Too bad they are making a big splash with these models this Spider and the 8C COmpetizione are going for 250K and the quota for USA has already been all absorbed. However these models to not really reflect the day to day Alfas: 159, GT, Brera, and even the GT Junior lurking around to compete with the Mini. This is Alfa!
Can't wait for them to come back to the USA.
Many are saying the old and new Alfa owners could clash. I say Non e vero (not true).
