This Afla originally belonged to the owner of Alfa Performance Connection in Orange County, California and acquired by the previous owner in February 2003 with 131,000 miles on the clock.  The new owner continued to maintain it religiously while putting on 30,000 miles.  In 2008 the new owner had moved out of the area and had the car stored in an enclosed garage until just recently.  The car just received fresh oil and filter, new plugs and new battery.  Due to religious maintenance this car is in very good condition even after sitting on side lines for over 5 years.  

CAR HAS CLEAN CALIFORNIA TITLE

NOTE TO CALIFORNIA BUYERS: The car was not declared "non-operational" from the time it was stored and as such there are DMV back fees due.  According to previous owner the amount is close to $1000.  Registration, smog and any back fees are responsibility of the buyer.

NOTE TO ALL NON-CALIFORNIA BUYERS: The back fees due are only if you plan to register and operate this car in the State of California.  

There is over $8000 in service receipts for work that has been performed by the previous owner.  This does not include work done by APC such as engine rebuild, installation of S Cams, etc.  I will only list what I have proof of:

The Alfa currently has just under 161,000 miles so the timing belt has just over 10,000 miles.  Thats another 20,000 miles before the next change.  There are receipts included with the car for all the work listed.

Pros:
- Religiously maintained and has documented history
- Solid Body
- Leather Interior in Excellent Condition, Back Seat is Like New
- Sunroof works perfectly in both modes
- A/C Stepper Motors, Auto Climate Control work including the digital indicators
- Power Windows, Power Mirrors, Power Door Locks work
- Front Seats move forward and back and recline
- Comes with extra set of 164 Q/S Tire and wheel set in very good condition
- Comes with Original Complete Owner Manual Pouch/Books/Manuals
- Headliner Tight (not droopy) 
- Operation Rear Window Shades
- Runs and Drives Great, Does Not Overheat - Temperature stays around 175
- Car cover (worn)
- Original AirBox - Car currently runs K&N high flow air filter
- VERY COOL Momo Steering Wheel
- Paint is in very good condition
- Dash is like new, no cracks
- All buttons seem to operate 
- Exterior moldings are in great shape and not warped

Cons:
- Brake are not working. Previous owner replaced all fuses - problem has been pinpointed to the relay under the dash. 
- Driver's Side Window regulator is making noise but the window does go up and down
- Tires on the car are dry cracked (look in to Pros for the additional set of tires and wheels)
- Minor Ding on the Hood
- Minor Rust area above windshield (surface rust about 1" across) treated but not painted by the previous owner

I would recommend replacing the tires with the included set and replacing the fuel filter - it was not replaced by the previous owner after taking the car out of storage.

Marchionne offers belated apology for 'wop engine' comment

Wed, 22 May 2013

Automotive News reports Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has issued a written apology for his comments regarding his decision to stick with an Italian engine for the upcoming Alfa Romeo 4C. As you may recall, back in January, Marchionne was quoted as saying, "I cannot come up with a schlock product, I just won't. I won't put an American engine into that car. With all due respect to my American friends, it has to be a wop engine." The CEO penned an apology to the Italian American ONE VOICE Coalition for using the racial epithet, saying that he made the comment in jest. Marchionne also said he realizes his remarks were unacceptable.
ONE VOICE, an organization aimed at fighting discrimination and stereotyping of Italian Americans, thanked Marchionne, Chrysler and Fiat for the apology. Marchionne is an Italian-born Canadian citizen, and he's gotten in trouble for other comments in the past. In 2011, he called high interest rates Chrysler was paying to the Canadian government "shyster rates." He apologized a day later.

Share price falls on skepticism of Chrysler-Fiat five-year plan

Thu, 08 May 2014

Following this week's Fiat Chrysler extravaganza, where the Italian-American manufacturer announced its plans for the next five years, the Autoblog staff was cautiously optimistic of the company's future. Investors? Not so much.
Fiat saw its shares tumble 12 percent in Wednesday's trading, falling from 8.67 euros ($12.06 at today's rates) to 7.44 euros ($10.35) as of this writing, with blame partly going to the Italian half of the FCA marriage, which recorded a pretty significant drop in profits during the first quarter of this year.
The plan, which will cost around $77 billion over the next several years, is facing criticism from investors thanks in part to a 1.4-percent drop in Fiat's first-quarter profits, to 622 million euros ($862 million). That figure is also short of Bloomberg analysts' projections, which predicted $1.18 billion in profits before taxes, interest and one-time items.
