100% agree. what a gorgeous car. and pretty cheap too at $US65K.
may need to wait for the US dollar to drop a little more before bidding though ...

Agree without question !

Please note this car sold on the 19th June on ebay for $85,000 (see image below) and is now back there two weeks later - either the sale fell over or the buyer is upselling given current northern hemisphere (read 'stratosphere') prices for SS's.

Yes...I ahve been watching this one too. There is something weird going on with this car.

Phil , I thought you might be one of the bidders this time around . Although one should really get on a plane if you were considering such a purchase . The last time it was on ebay it jumped about 80k in one bid , my sources tell me it was a dummy bid by the vendor (dealer) hence the no sale first time around . The car was originally for sale in May 2008 out of Belgium for 44,000 euros , made its way to the States owned for about 6 months and now for sale again . I dont like the quarter windows (this is what is unusual and unique about this car) and Im not convinced they are original. If the car was any other colour besides red (or white) the car would have sold for well over 100k by now . I know a few guys after non red or white Sprint Speciales !

This model of Alfa was the companies stab in the same way that sprung
the Borgward Isabella Coupe. It was due to the catalyst of the Karman Ghia.
This is what women love and although this model is beautiful in some angles
overall its not the most appealing Alfa by far unless youre a glamour chick  ;D
