1989 Alfa Romeo Spider

*1989 Alfa-Romeo Spider Quadrifoglio*® The Alfa Romeo Spider is an iconic sports car, with a production run spanning nearly 30 years. Each of the carâs four generations had their benefits, and the third generation, built between 1983 and 1989 is the most recognizable to North American enthusiasts. This Spider is a 1989 model, coming from the final year of the third generation, and is the sought after Quadrifoglio trim.® Under the care of a single local owner since 1992, this Alfa Red Spider Quadrifoglio has been kept in remarkable condition and shows 76,600 miles at the time of cataloging. This third generation Spider benefits from some unique features including a factory removable hard top, and a luggage rack on the rear decklid. To give the car a bit more vintage flare, a set of 15-inch Vicks Auto Sports Superlite wheels have been fitted, which pair well with the Quadrifoglioâs bespoke side skirts, and front and rear spoilers.® The interior is beautifully simple, with a pair of grey leather bucket seats, paired to red contrasting carpet, for some proper Italian style. Drop into the driverâs seat and youâre met by a 3-spoke wood rimmed steering wheel, which is smaller in diameter than the included original, and matches the shift knob perfectly. One of the more unique pieces of the Alfa Spider interior is its shifter placement - coming out of the dashboard. Although odd looking, it is a fantastic place for the shifter, as you donât have to move your hand very far from the steering wheel, and the shift pattern becomes instinctive quickly. These later third generation Spiders also feature a more modern gauge cluster with white-on-black Jaeger instruments laid out plainly in front of the driver.® Under the hood sits a 2.0-liter dual overhead cam inline-4 that produces 115 horsepower and 119 lb-ft of torque. This is a further refined variant of the inline-4 that dates back to the 1950s and was used in many of Alfaâs most iconic cars from history, but unlike many of the classics that ran on either carburetors, this Spider uses a Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection system. Power is then sent to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual gearbox. Even in more highly equipped Quadrifoglio form, the Alfa Spider still weighed less than 2,500 lbs which makes it an absolute joy to toss around on your favorite back road.® Finding a nice Spider is getting harder by the year - and coming across one with nearly 35 years of single family ownership is even more remarkable. This example presents in fantastic condition, with a few small upgrades to improve the looks and feel behind the wheel, without largely changing what the car is. With summer upon is, itâs hard to beat a top-down Italian driving experience and this is a car you can enjoy all summer long.® *Key Features* * Single Family Ownership Since 1992 * 2.0-Liter DOHC Inline-4 * 115 Horsepower/119 Lb-Ft of Torque * 5-Speed Manual Transmission * Factory Removable Hardtop * Rear Wheel Drive * 15-I
