Alfa Romeo : Milano Verde Quadrifoglio 1988 alfa romeo milano 3.0 l verde rwd 1 of 800 made rare italian car

$11,000

Willoughby, Ohio

**Contact me at 440-339-4341** This is my 1988 Alfa Romeo Milano Quadrifoglio Verde 3.0 sedan with only 94,000 miles. This is a pretty rare car, as only about 800 of these were made and sent to the USA. The Milano was Alfa's last RWD sedan sold in America. In Europe this car is known as the 75, celebrating Alfa Romeo's 75th anniversary. This is actually a transaxle car, as the transmission/differential and even the clutch are in the rear of the car to achieve a nearly perfect F/R weight balance. The standard Milano had a sweet-sounding 2.5L V6 and was considered a very good performer. However, Alfa saw fit to give us Americans something even better, the Verde model. This car uses a 3.0L all-aluminum V6 with a manual transmission, limited-slip rear differential, inboard rear disc brakes, gorgeous factory Recaro sport seats among a whole host of upgrades. This was by far the top-of-the-line Alfa Romeo sold in the USA at the time. Unfortunately, the high price meant only a few hundred were sold. This Milano Verde has an impressive (for 1988) list of luxury and technology equipment including power moonroof, ABS brakes, heated seats, power locks and windows, A/C, etc.The sound of the Busso Alfa V6 engine in this car has been described by Jeremy Clarkson as "pure opera". Personally, I'd rate a few inline-6 and flat-6 engines fairly high as well, but regardless this is a beautiful-sounding engine.The engine sound as well as the chassis balance, handling, seating position, steering, shifting, in fact nearly everything about this car was optimized for driving enjoyment and performance. This particular example has been collector-owned for at least two decades. The car has always been garaged, and has been well-kept and well-serviced. It has most recently had the alternator replaced, starter rebuilt, various wiring/gauges repaired and replaced, oil changed and otherwise serviced and looked after by an Italian car specialty shop here in Ohio. The previous owner recently rebuilt the engine with performance pistons, upgraded cams and rebuilt heads, new timing belt, etc at a cost of over $4000. The exhaust was upgraded to an ANSA system as well, and does not currently have catalytic converters fitted. The wheels are beautiful 16" Masitaly Italian wheels with very good tires. The paint and body are very presentable and look quite nice. This car has zero exterior body rust- this is a super clean, very well-preserved and nice condition exterior. The underside is completely clean and solid. The paint quality is very good, it carries normal and expected minor nicks, marks, and other minor flaws, but it looks very nice overall.The interior of the car is in great shape. The Recaro seats have no wear or rips in the unique fabric. The carpets are in good condition and the plastics and upholstery are in good shape. The dash shows some very minor cracks and the headliner sags just a bit in the rear seat. This car runs and drives very well. The engine, transmission, suspension, steering, etc are working very well. This is a reliable and dependable car. All of the gauges are working properly and the car doesn't misbehave or give trouble. It holds temperature perfectly and shows great oil pressure. This is a nearly 30-year-old Italian car so it isn't absolutely perfect of course. It has it's small faults and flaws including the following: the windshield is cracked, the rear power windows do not work, the ABS light is on, the hydraulic brake assist is sometimes less powerful than I'd expect and the vehicle monitoring display in the center console is nearly useless. There is no radio installed. The car is sold as-is with no warranty.This is a very rare, very fun and very unusual Italian sport sedan.The title is clean and clear, ready to transfer. Located in my heated warehouse in Willoughby, OH. You can fly in to Cleveland (CLE) and drive this car home. You can also have the car shipped- contact Angels Transport at 530-245-0481 for a shipping quote.Email me or call/text me at 440-339-4341

Alfa Romeo : Milano Platinum Sedan 4-Door 1987 alfa romeo milano platinum sedan 4 door 2.5 l

$3,000

Lubbock, Texas

Extremely clean 1987 Alfa Romeo Milano. This particular Milano has lived in the Southwest its entire life, and was owned by the president of the Scottsdale chapter of the AROC at one point. Car runs and drives great. Has a bit of a grind (synchro) going into second gear, however shifts well otherwise. Paint is in fair shape with some fading, however the car appears to be rust free. Recent maintenance (last 5,000 miles or so) includes a new clutch, new battery, timing belt, water pump, ball joints, control arm bushings, recent tires, ac compressor, and countless other items. The interior presents well, however there is some fading. The driver's door panel shows wear and has a few small punctures in the arm rest area. New custom fit floor mats were recently installed. Has a few typical "alfa quirks" but is a great driving example of a Milano. I have a folder of recent services totaling over $10,000 in maintenance. The car starts right up even after sitting for weeks at a time. There are no noticable leaks. I am out of storage space and need to make room. The car has a clean Texas title in my name and is sold as-is and where-is. Seller will be responsible for handling shipping, however I will assist in coordinating as needed.

$1,750

Valley Center, California

The Milano is a vintage automobile and will require some adjustments prior to driving it. The car was made in Italy and most of the replacement part are imported from there. In addition, If you looking to buy an "everyday transportation" car this is NOT the one for you! I am not the original owner. I purchased the Milano from a dealership in Corona California in the early 1990's. The overall appearance of the Milano is good inside and out. The automobile is located in San Diego County, California. Anyone that purchases this Alfa Romeo will need to have it transported to the intended destination. In terms of payment, I am requesting United States currency or a ligitimate cashiers check. Please contact me with your additonal questions or offers. Thank you.

$12,100

New York, New York

Overall - Remarkable shape inside and out. Not many around in this condition. Always garaged. Driven in nice weather only Kilometers: 122k (~75K miles) Interior: Excellent and leather. Exterior: Very, very, good. (a couple dings and scratches notwithstanding) Paint: Very good. Deep shine and glossy. Was told by previous owner that it had a high quality re-spray in early 90's. In my opinion, it has held up really well, and no nasty obvious over-spray. Wheels: Exquisite. Factory Optional OZ Racing Wheels. (Was recently offered over 2k just for the wheels alone. Thus far, I'm resisting) Engine: Runs excellent. Exhaust: Factory correct chrome S-pipe exhaust. (not the usual aftermarket Ansa straight pipe exhaust) Clutch: No issues Cooling: No issues Brakes: No issues Tires: Good shape Electrics: Power windows, mirrors, antenna all work. Radio: CD player, no issues.A/C: It's been disconnected for as long as I've had it, and then some. Mechanicals are in place though. New Mechanicals: New radiator and rebuilt fans. New coil. New cap, rotor, cables. New brake master cylinder. Not so good: - Only the 2nd gear syncro detracts from the drive. It’s a common weakness on these. Second gear can be had without double clutching, but I usually double clutch it. - An isolated patch of rust the size of a couple quarters has emerged on driver's side fender behind the wheel. - It's due for a timing belt. Other notes: - Canadian spec car, so speedometer is in kilometers and headlights are nice and bright compared to U.S. spec cars of the same period. - The clutch action is really smooth. Leads me to believe it is the original Double-Plate clutch. Remarkable in its own right that it has lasted this long. Most of these GTV's have a single plate clutch from the Milano installed. The double plate clutch is quite sweet, but if original, it IS 30 years old. I haven't changed it because I like the fact that it may indeed be the original double-plate clutch. It grabs and operates perfectly.- Always garage kept. Driven regularly; cautiously but spiritedly. Overall assessment: This IS a 30 year old car, so it cannot be perfect. But it is likely is one of the nicest GTV6's in the nation. I showed it at the Greenwich Concours d' elegance a few years ago. I received many compliments. This car is hoot to drive and the engine noises; it snarls, it growls, and then has this raspy blare as the revs increase. Addictive. These are still under the radar, and probably will be so for some time to come, BUT you never know..... Asking $12,100Contact Peter at 201 838 4335

Alfa Romeo : Other 2.5 Coupe 2-Door 1986 alfa romeo gtv 6 2.5 coupe 2 door 2.5 l

$10,000

Dublin, California

This is an excellent example of the last year of production for the Alfa Romeo GTV6. On balance the best kept secret in the sports car world, a car that is expected to appreciate rapidly very shortly. This is a perfect, no rust, low mileage all original California car with a lots of new parts, and was smogged 9-14. It is the original champagne color with black leather, AC works, new stereo. It was painted about three years ago with the original color. The betting is these will be selling in the 15-25K range in five or so years. The 86 had an improved shifter, cast iron valve guides etc. It's also very common to put the 3.0 L version of this engine in this car, and or port the heads and cam the 2.5. The GTV6 is unique in that it was the only trans-axle car ever sold in this class, and achieved almost perfect weight distribution. They are often exported to Europe for Pro-Rally racing because of their handling and balance. Also, they had both bosch L injection/ ignition, and bosch electrics, which gave them superb reliability. They were also in several movies, including the James Bond Octopussy, and are rarely seen on the streets now. I have driven a GTV6 for 19 years, and by far it has been the best car I've ever owned. The cost was very low, the handling and driving superb, and reliability was astonishing. I ported and cammed my 82, lowered it to Euro specs, put Koni gas shocks on it, and used good tires. The Brembo/ATE braking is excellent as well. Stock they are underpowered, far too high in ride height in the front and need as much torque and power as possible. The 3.0 L engines used in the Milano and 164 (preferable) will bolt in, and provide significant power gain. The website ALFABB has almost unlimited information of tuning these cars. 10K is rock bottom. If it doesn't sell, I'll raise the price to 15K, and get the long anticipated GTV6 appreciation party started.

Alfa Romeo : Other 4 Door ALFA ROMEO European 1990 33 IMOLA 1.7 Boxer Motor In USA w/ Clear Florida Title

$18,995

Cornwall Bridge, Connecticut

This is a rare 1990 Alfa Romeo 33 Imola Edition. It is a European car that was brought to the US from Holland. It has a clear Florida title. I am listing this car for a friend who has owned it for a few years. He bought it from the Dutch man who brought the car to the US. The car is located in Palm Beach County, Florida. If you are seriously interested in the car and would like to discuss, inspect and test drive this awesome Alfa, arrangements will need to be made. The owner will then meet you in Florida so you can inspect the car. The owner has many Alfa Romeos in his collection of cars and is fastidious about maintaining all of them, this 33 is no exception.The car is a rust free example, rare for any Alfa Romeo and especially for Alfasud / 33 models. The car has 87958 Kms (about 54700 miles). It is the original color Black Metallic #632. It was recently painted below the pin stripe as there were some small scratches in this area. The hood has some water marks on the paint. The spoiler was also stripped bare and repainted, but it has some unusual marks in the paint. The interior is black with black suede inserts on the seating surfaces. The headliner and all interior appointments are in excellent condition. The owner says that all the switches and functions work. The car has power front windows and power door locks. Rear window wiper. It has a Rockford Fosgate Stereo with Pioneer Head. The interior is such a nice and clean design and its condition is excellent. Surprisingly roomy for the size of this vehicle. It has rear spoiler. The car has its original Euro spec Carello head lights and left fog light has a crack.The motor runs extremely well and is smooth and powerful. It has a performance chip that was installed by the previous owner and this 1.7 Boxer engine puts out about 120 hp. It is nimble indeed. It has a K&N sport air filter and Remus tailpipe. There is an OMP front strut brace. The transmission has typical Alfa grinding in third gear. Another complete transmission was recently sourced from Europe to be used to correct these issues and this is included with the car.The strong suit of the Alfa 33 is its handling with its low center of gravity. This has been enhanced with the car being lowered and fitted with performance springs and Koni shocks at all four corners. Recently added are four brand new Serpent Auto Sport Rims with Yokohama S Drive 195/45R15 Tires. It drives and corners and stops beautifully.This Alfa Romeo 33 has such a beautiful and clean design with cues from both the Milano and 164 that are enhanced by its compact size. Add to that its rarity in this country and you have a very unique Alfa Romeo. Thank you for looking.

Ferrari : Other SPIDER Intermeccanica Italia inspired Ferrari Nembo Spider owned by Sports Car Market

$155,000

Beverly Hills, California

Quoted from Bloomberg Business: "Italias are striking cars that offer handsome styling with hand-formed steel bodies that were made in Turin between 1967 and 1972. Classic & Sports Car, in a 1993 article, stated, "The Italia may be one of the most gorgeously styled cars ever made, but you may never have heard of it. The Italia is one of life's great mysteries; it's an especially beautiful car. It also looks curiously familiar...a touch of the Nembo Ferrari, or a NART Spyder, especially the grille. The only identification is the two small badges on the flanks that say Carrozzeria IM and are adorned with rampant bull emblems. What is it? A Lamborghini? Nope. What you are looking at is a genuine Intermeccanica Italia." This particular Italia was previously owned by a senior analyst with the Sports Car Market publication. You don't want to spend $700,000 to $1,000,000 on a Shelby AC Cobra? (British car with Ford engine), or $18,000,000 on a 250 Ferrari Spider or a $1,000,000 on a Daytona Spider or perhaps $800,000 on a Maserati spider? Then this might just be the car for you. A mid-1960s designed sports car, built in Torino Italy, designed by one of the greatest automobile designers of all time--Franco Scaglione. Scaglione designed some of the greatest cars in history, including the most stunning trio of automobiles in a series ever made, the Alfa Romeo B.A.T.s, as well as the Giulietta Sprint and Sprint Speciale and many others Alfas. Scaglione then worked with Carlo Abarth and Porsche where he designed the Porsche 356 B Abarth Carrera GTL, the acclaimed design forerunner of the 911. Then Scaglione conceived the most desirable of all Lamborghinis, the Lamborghini 350 GTV, the very first Lamborghini. He also designed the stunning ATS 2500 GT and the 1900 Skyline Sprint for the Japanese Prince company. In 1967, shortly after designing this car, the InterMeccanica Italia, Scaglione designs the legendary Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale, arguably the prettiest sports-racer ever designed. With this Italia you are not just buying a car...you are buying a rare piece of Italian art from a true Artisan. This Italia features a spectacular color combination, one I fell in love with years ago when I saw a Ferrari on the grass at Pebble Beach (see pic) similarly configured. Only 354 Italia spiders and coupes were ever constructed during a six year period from the late 1960s to the early 70s, making this a Ferrari Daytona era car but much rarer than the Daytona. From 1968 on Ferrari produced 1,406 Daytonas, coupes and convertibles, nearly 4 times as many Daytonas were produced when compared to the Italia. (By comparison, Ferrari will be making 9,000 cars a year whereas only According to the Italia registry this car was produced in 1969. Some say the Italia's styling is very similar to the Ferrari Nembo Spyder designed by Tome Meade, a friend of mine until he passed away a couple of years ago, and a car worth millions of dollars. Here's something you don't see everyday for a used car: I'm offering a SIX MONTH GUARANTEE! IF AFTER 180 DAYS / SIX MONTHS YOU NO LONGER WANT THIS CAR, FOR ANY REASON, RETURN IT IN THE SAME CONDITION YOU RECEIVE IT AND YOU WILL GET A FULL REFUND! I know I'm selling this car now for less than it is worth. This car was last sold publicly at auction by RM way back in 2007 and we all know how the collector car market has gone up since then. This Italia features power windows and rare factory AC. In addition, it features elements unique to this car which I've been told were specially ordered by a customer, including unique door handles and a period trendy front lower valence. Apparently these cars, like the Miura, became light at high speeds and so this valence was installed to keep the car better planted to the motorway. HOWEVER, I have taken the car out of storage and I have REMOVED the front valence. I prefer the 1950s/1960s vintage look better without the valence. Of course, the valence will come with the car for the purchaser’s discretion. I purchased the car a number of years ago and it has been covered and stored in a garage. The body shows no signs of rust. The paint was likely done many years ago and no rust has come through anywhere that I can see. You could drive it as it is or restore it, depending on whether you want a more original look or a the new concours look. I will paste the RM Description below, but for those who are unfamiliar with this car, the great thing about it is it provides true sexy Italian metal bodywork, designed and built by artisans in Turin Italy, with rugged and reliable classic American V8 power, a Ford 351 Cleveland V8. So unlike an old Ferrari, Lamborghini or Maserati, you can run down to your local Pep Boys and buy a water pump or tune up kit or have Jiffy Lube change your oil. In addition, a few tweaks to the Cleveland motor, the same engine found in the Pantera, and the Italia will simply blow the doors of a Daytona. RM recently sold a navy blue Italia Spyder for nearly $200,000. That car had the wrong aftermarket gauges and numerous other issues. This car is a classic "resale red" with a full tan interior, the most desirable color combination with a rare tan interior and it features all its original instruments. It also had significant maintenance work by the prior owner. After 47 years I figure its time for a new gas tank so I'm having a customer aluminum tank fabricated to improve safety, reduce weight and ensure this car's V8 received perfectly clean fuel. After taking the Italia out of the garage and seeing it sparkle in the sunlight with its unique colors, I'm really tempted to drive it for a few months and then make it the prettiest/best Italia out there and then set the market at $250k to $300k. (Which is why I am offering the buy back after six months if the buyer no longer wants the car.) With collector cars the moment to buy often comes and goes. How many times have you heard stories of how someone could have bought a particular sports car for $40k and today its worth $800k? I suspect there are fewer than 300 of these cars, coupes and convertibles, left in the world and as with all other Italian sports cars from this era prices are rapidly escalating. Timing is everything. FROM THE RM AUCTION LISTING A FEW YEARS BACK Specifications: c. 300 hp, 351 cu. in. Ford Cleveland V8, four-speed manual transmission, live rear axle, front and rear disc brakes with booster. Wheelbase: 94.5" In 1959 chemical engineer Frank Reisner combined his fascination with automobiles and professional talents to establish Carrozzeria Automobile Intermeccanica. Born in Hungary in 1932 and raised in Canada, he raced sports cars and "specials" in the late fifties before moving to Italy. Here he designed a racing chassis for Giannini Automobile, Spa, Rome, but soon relocated to Turin to build speed equipment. Over the next few years Reisner built numerous cars including the Apollo GT, which was based on Buick mechanicals, for International Motor Cars of San Francisco. These stylish Italian-bodied sports cars helped firmly establish Carrozzeria Intermeccanica as an automobile manufacturer, despite the fact 1963-65 production was limited to about one hundred units. Other Intermeccanica models followed -- from one-off prototypes to the Corvair-powered Phoenix constructed for John Fitch. After a few sour arrangements Reisner was left with 142 completed chassis in Turin. He went to Ford and secured a steady supply of 289 cubic inch V8 engines (later Cleveland and Windsor 351 cubic inch V8s), and drivetrains for shipment back to his factory in Italy. He arranged for a new distributor to sell his first true production car, the Torino, but in 1967 the similarly styled 5-liter, later the 5.7-litre Italia was unveiled. The Corvette-like Italia in Ferrari-inspired clothing sold well in America. Sports Car Graphic said in 1970, “…it has the potential to be the Ford Motor Company’s version of the ’Vette. And it’s a lot more exciting.” The 0-60mph time was 6.2 seconds. This Italia is fitted with the rarely seen factory air conditioning and powered by the preferred Ford 351 cubic inch Cleveland V8 mated with a four-speed manual transmission. The engine is fitted with custom valve covers, a new Edelbrock 650cfm 4V carb and Edelbrock Performer intake manifold. Its recent freshening also included addition of a new electronic ignition, rebuilt front end, rebuilt front and rear disc brakes, new wiring harness, stainless steel exhaust system as well as a new fuel pump, The fuel system and lines, hoses and belts and much more have been inspected, repaired or replaced where necessary. Riding on new tires mounted on vintage Magnum 500 wheels, this Italia in fresh Milano Russo paint mates the best of Italian design and American Muscle. The fresh paintwork is in excellent condition as is its tan leather interior with black piping and tan cloth convertible top. The dash and controls are all business, exemplifying the Italia’s supercar nature, while the leather seats, tan carpets and power windows are concessions to the Gran Turismo side of the Italia. Approximately 376 (354) Italia coupes and convertibles were built, which, in comparison to some far more expensive Ferrari models, is very few in number, making an Italia a truly rare American-powered, international supercar.
